I sold my winter tires(15" Blizzaks)/wheels and my spare wheels in preparation for selling my car, then decided to keep my car and fell into a set of 14" VW "teardrop" wheels for a song. Now, it's time to find some snow tires to keep me on the road, should I drive this winter. Size is 185/60/14 for a Civic EG.
I had previously been considering Firestone Winterforce tires since they are cheap and have good reviews.

However, while browsing I clicked the LRR tag for giggles and this popped up. For the same exact price, Yokohama iceGUARD iG52c.

I see good reviews on the Yokohamas as well, and am running Yokohama (Avid Ascend) LRR tires in the summer too. Does anyone have info or personal experience with these? Does "LRR" actually mean anything with winter tires?
Thanks in advance for any assistance.
