Well, Jaywest717, I reckon that depends on where you live. If your winter has several "snow days" or below freezing temperatures, I agree with regal, it would be best to get at least some good all-season tires for your FR-S.

That way you can run them part of the year and switch to the OEM tires during the spring - fall.

It's not necessary to go back to the dealer, any good tire shop can fix you up. Personally, I like the Goodyear Eagle Sports that I put on for winter.

A good place to review tires and get some good prices is here:

If you don't want to get some different tires ..... drive very carefully when the roads freeze.....
