the size of them though is 195/75/14.  Would this fit well with a car that is dropped about 1.2-1.5 inches? or do you think i'm gonna have some rubbing issues?

What size winter tire do or have you run? lowered or not lowered?

I'm lowered with Eibach Sportline. 2" drop. Currently using 185/70/14 Copper Weathermaster ST2. Grippy as hell.. I'm a pretty crazy driver, specially in winter. this thing gives me the grip that I need.

They look like this.



The 195/75/14 will probably rub on the fender linings on full turns. 195/70/14 should be ok. Correct size if you have 195/60/15 as stock would be 185/70/14. But you can get away with 195/70/14.... for regular winter driving you can go with 195/70/14.. I only wanted to go narrow so that I can get maximum grip.

So far these are best snow tires on deep snow.

other snow tires that I used in the past
Michelin Artic Alpin
Nokian Hakkapellitta 2
Nordic Icetrac
Cavalier Winterkings
Hankook W401
