Wow - return of Summer Tires!
Just swapped my Blizzaks off and put the summer wheels on with the stock Primacy HPs - what a difference!
Much more planted and solid feel - almost forgot over the long winter what that felt like! Wonderful!

When I put my X-Ice 3s, they definitely felt squirmy. Used to it now. Can't wait for my wheels to arrive so I can get get some PSS goodness going.

I was surprised at how grippy the stock tires were for "prius tires." I went on a canyon drive when I first bought the car and the tires held on pretty well. It was kind of sketchy at first, but as long as you're smooth they grip pretty nicely.
Well, now I got Dunlop Direzza ZII's and the stock tires can't even compare to that haha

My car doesn't know anything but summer high performance tires. Any chance I might get snow or ice for a day, I just work from home!

Hah I just put my summers back on today too. The difference is incredible, you forget what it's like. Squirmy 40mph turn becomes firmly planted 70mph turn. Love it.
