I have a GT PE arriving next month (sometime between 11/5 and 11/11) according to Ford. My wife and I are going to be heading to Los Angeles to see her mom for Thanksgiving and want people's feedback on my plan.
We live outside of Denver and I'm planning on getting a set of wheels and winter tires to keep the car on the road when it snows - which can be anytime between September and late May, though we did have snow on 4th of July a long time ago. For this long trip to Los Angeles I have this nagging fear that if I cut a tire or have an issue, I'll be stuck in the middle of nowhere and screwed. So, I'm thinking of buying 5 tires and wheels and carrying the spare in the back of the car for the trip. I'd be ok if just here in the Denver area, but not when a far way away. It's a lot of coin to spend, but the ability to recover and keep going makes sense to me.
The forum crowd here usually has some great logic and experience. What are your thoughts on this? I'm leaning towards the Blizzak LM001
