Winter tire upgrade

Hey guys,
I finally bit the bullet and got some 215/60/R15 Firestone Winterforce for my Alero. What a freakin' difference! It doesn't feel like the same car. I would recommend them if you live in a northern climate like me. I'm glad I did it too for another reason. Right front tie rod end is bad and the horizontal hockey puck bushing in my control arm is just starting to peel out of the arm. I haven't decided if I am going to replace the bushing or the whole arm. Leaning towards the arm because the car has 162,000 on it and the entire front end is original.
