I'm sure I could get summer tires warmed up, but I'm drawn the UHP all seasons.
well i can only really speak for street driving, i dont autox or track my car. in any way that could truly test them at the real limits. but i can say that they are definitely stickier than the stock primacys though not sure how much that might be due to the added width. when they break away they feel communicative beforehand but they do break away fast right after they tell you that theyre going to. they feel easy to regain grip afterwards as well. the steering feels just as communicative as before and theyre not too loud (though theyve only got about 400 mi on them).

theres a long sweeping highway exit that has a right turn left with height change and i can comfortably take it over 60mph whereas before it would start to break away by then with the primacies. i also have experienced no loss of traction even with the 20-30 degree nights weve been having. dont know how much help that is but id recommend them at least based on my experience so far.
