Hi everyone!
I'm back from Springfield MO of all places! The place that happen to have 5 inches of snow on the ground this morning (Wed 12/4), on top of at least one inch of ice...and when I left about lunch time this morning it was snowing again. It DID however, give me the opportunity to see what these Pilot Sports are like in inclement weather.
For those of you that haven't driven the car in snow yet, she handled surprisingly well! It's only fair to note that I don't know what Goodyear's would have felt like in the snow, but I'm sure they would have sucked.
It really didn't feel like I was driving a 500hp car, with 275/40's on her. It felt as surefooted as one of my old Escorts. I'm sure it's not due to the tires alone, but....they're excellent!
If you're lookin' for a winter tire, I highly recommend the Michelin Pilot Sport A/S tires.
