Hi-Tech Retreads used the green diamond process in their tires before they changed their name to Treadwright, Treadwright uses a system now with crushed wallnut shells. Both have received good reviews.

I've looked into these and they seem to be highly regarded in light of the value. Pretty tempting, given some of the tires are, like, 40% of their BFG/Goodyear equivalents. They've got the most popular size/tread combinations, but nothing very exotic. You may find they don't offer what you want.

I have a set for my WRX that I use(d) in the winter in MD.

They worked REALLY well on the ice/slush mix we'd normally get there. There were several nights when we were building the M725 (1:15 away form my house via backroads) that I'd need to drive home after a fog had frozen to the roads.

They work really good on ice, surprising... it doesn't feel normal when on ice, but you don't crash either ....

They are also hard enough to live through running during the summer if you get stuck with 1 set of tires.

They are a little 'greasy' on normal roads, but it made the WRX more fun to drive.

Now if I could only get them to answer the phone or email... I'd buy 2 sets with spares now as long as I could get delivery by summer...:smiley_drive:

We ran them on one of the winter rally sweep trucks. great on ice, good grip. none of the noise of traditional studs.
