odyssey, touring, snow tires
I have an '05 Odyssey Touring edition w/Michelin run flat tires. I am
happy with the van except no one makes snow tires for it. I live in
the snow belt.
After much investigation (Tire Rack, Honda America HQ, dealership,
local tire stores,) the only solution I can find is to take off the run
flats, put on conventional snow tires and drive around with a spare in
the back.
Has anyone else encountered this problem and what you done about it?
Yours in the winter,
Sheena

That's why I hate what they've done with the new Odyssey. I can't buy
top of the line without this problem.
Tires are a very personal choice, and they've taken that very important
personal choice away.

TireRack does offer a small sellection of wheels which will work with the
Bridgestone Blizzak snow tire, not a cheap alternative I know.
