I am in need of some new tires.  What does the hive say as far as all-weather tires for a 07 Ford Taurus.  Note I am in MN so all-weather that handle snow well are a must  (not all of them handle snow well).

Can you get the Nokian WR G2 is the proper size?  That's the *only* all-season tire that I've ever used that I consider truly "Winter capable".  Doesn't melt in 100 degrees either.

Cooper CS5 Grand Touring  

is a good all year choice.


 

I drive close to 50k miles each year for work plus another 15k for personal use in a late model AWD Ford Taurus.  Much of my winter driving is in snowy conditions, including a lot of unplowed roads.  Michelin Defenders are good in snow when new and they wear well (although not close to the 90k warranty).  I got a set of General Altimax RT43 about 14k miles ago.  They still look new, they were affordable, and they are great in snow for an AS tire.  

I drive pretty fast and most of my driving is hilly, twisty, two lane roads.  I rarely get much more than 25k out of a set of tires; the Michelins and Generals have been they only car tires which have done better.

Does your taurus hydroplane A LOT? I have one I think it's an '01, the tires seem kinda wide and I tell ya, I've never driven anything that hydroplanes as much as this thing. I'm wanting to put on narrower tires.

Yes.  Scary stuff when it does.

+1 for the general Altimax RT43.  I've had a good experience with them over the past year.

My Taurus is my winter car,It had a set of Sumitomo Touring LST in 215/60-16 that were very good in the first snow fall.
That said I have switched to my set of snows for the remainder of the winter. With my job I have to be able to get to work no matter the road conditions.
