Sorry but -
DO NOT DRIVE ON THE STOCK PRIMACY HPs in the SNOW - EVER
I have lived my entire life in Colorado and have NEVER chenged my tires from summer to winter tires.
I have always used All-season tires (so 30 years snow experinece, NEVER with snow tires).
SO I thought it would be the same with this car.
I drove out of my neighborhood one day in the snow and about 1 degree above freezing.
I did brake checks and steering checks before pulling out onto a freeway.
Then SPUN the car completely into oncoming traffic on the freeway.
It was partially the fault of the TC/VSC system, but the zero grip from the tires was the initial cause.
Never again - The Primacy HPs turn into polished granite below about 35 degrees...
I now have Hankook Winters and I can drive circles around some 4WD cars out there.
