If you can afford it, you really should get snow tires in the front also. Because of weight transfer, most of your breaking is done by the front wheels. So it really is best to have snow tires on all four wheels.
To your question, it will work to have diffrent sizes on the front and the back.
Billy understates the case for four snows. What good is it to go, if you can't turn or stop?
Good snow tires have a snowflake on the sidewall. Inexpensive ($75) examples are Dunlop Graspic or Firestone Winterfire. Blizzaks will set you back a little over $100.
I had the same prob. Second gear start helps a bit, but I was definately working on my winter driving skills. I think that I am going to get some blizzaks from bridgstone, I have heard good things about them. On the same note, I will be adding some serious weight to the rear.

Which tire do you think is better? Right now, I am leaning towards the Firestones because of the better customer feedback. Thanks guys [img]smile.gif[/img]

This will be my third winter on Blizzaks. They are great!
Haven’t done anything on the Camaro, but put LEDs on my truck headlights . And my oil pressure sensor went out on the truck so going to fix that this...
