What do you guys think about me just replacing the current primacy HP's with michelin Pilot Super Sports now, and keeping them on from now on?
That would eliminate the need for keeping 2 sets of wheels, and would save me a good chunk of money edit - oops i meant michelin pilot sport a/s 3. Basically, what are the thoughts of me putting on all seasons instead of having 2 sets of wheels (that i don't really have the storage for) Last edited by HeartbeaT91; 12-06-2016 at 05:39 PM. |

Not necessarily, I've driven the stocks on fresh powder and they were fine. Terrible on ice, however. I'm not sure why everyone hates on these tires in the rain unless they drive like idiots. They handle decently for wet conditions.

Also, yes. I've never had problems with them in the rain. Sometimes I go slight hard on throttle on left turns (when no one's around) and immediately back off for the mini drifts for fun. But I've always found it manageable. And it rains like everyday in seattle :P |

Do you drive in a winter climate? If yes, you need winter tires. If no, you do not need winter tires.

Summer tires are made hard so that they become the right pliancy when it is hot. Those same tires in cold weather harden up to a point you may as well be driving around with wooden wheels. Driving around on ANY summer tires in cold weather is foolish no matter how careful you are.
