For about the same money one can have better tires, and that's my point.

I'm totally used to the "cheap and affordable" crowd defending their purchases. Nothing surprising in that, doesn't mean others should follow you guys.
A rotary phone wouldn't allow me to type this rebuttal letting you know that your analogy is invalid.

People get snow tires to drive in the snow. Getting from point A to B in winter time. We are still driving through the same snow as last year. If a tire works, it works. Can you buy better tires? Certainly, but for an affordable option to help our RWD car in winter commute, the General is a great choice.

Just because you like to overspend for a marginal gain, doesn't mean everyone else should.
