So not quite half, but certainly a lot more appealing to those of us that have no desire to run RFT's.
Absolutely agreed.. I guess the relatively small price difference in the winter tire category definitely inures to their benefit, especially in the cold and inclement weather when most people would rather not be outdoors changing a flat!
