Can anyone please give their choice of the following three tires, and
reasons why
or why not to get a specific one- I need tires ASAP and am not sure which
ones to buy:

Yokohama A378
BFGoodrich Comp T/A HR4
Dunlop D60/A2

I'm looking for new all-season performance tires, fair-good in the snow,
for my 1990 Ford TBird LX with the stock 15" steel rims. All abpve tires
are under $70 mail-order (Tire Rack, Discount Tire Direct) for the size I
want, 215/65 15's. I only need these for the winter and spring since I'll
be getting 16" rims soon, but I still want good performance for myself this
winter, and for sellability in the future.

Thanks for any advice!!!

I don't know about the other two, but I tried the T/A HR4s on my car
(see sig) and wasn't happy. Compared to the stock Skaterbacks, the dry
performance was worse, the wet perf was worse, and the snow perf was
only slightly better.

You get what you pay for.
