If your primary concern is black ice, grab the michelin XIce3 off tire rack asap, there's a $70 mail in rebate making them around $350+shipping in many sizes which is an insane deal imo!
S-04 has a stiffer sidewall and slightly softer tread, PSS has a more uniform stiffness through the tire. Both will be excellent summer tire choices.
Many Subaru parts departments are really unaware of what they have. Just ask for 2 x 901000394 and corresponding nut. If they say that's 'strictly aftermarket' ask them to search for an M14x60 bolt and corresponding nut, then make them repeat back the part number so you can laugh at them.  |
You always bring up fair points so now I am starting to tilt to other side. So let me ask this, say I have the crash bolts and I buy that new set of black lug nuts and they get installed. When it comes to swap out for summer tires, is it literally just taking off the winter tires/wheels and putting on the summer tires/wheels? Just a regular swap? Would I need to ask for -2 degrees camber and zero toe every time?
