So much for that idea, lol. I'll probably put the new version of Contis DWS 06 on my E46 instead of the Michelin Pilot Sport A/S 4, as originally planned. Never tried Contis before, and so far, all I've heard are good things about them. This will probably occur early next spring, and will resort to driving my 1/2-ton shod with BFG All-Terrain KO2s when the weather turns sour. |

In the 20s overnight here these days; which means the same in the am when I schlep the kid to school. Luckily no precip at the same time yet. How about Buffalo, though? OMG! |

Many use them here in the backcountry where the snow is a lot deeper than 6 feet. They just have to either change out the front skids to something wider for better float above the snow and the tracks with longer "paddles" for added traction. They just need access to their garage to get their sleds out ........ which is often buried in the white stuff. :lol: :lol: |

Edit: and actually one of the summers is new, as the shop damaged one in the swap. |

Best is the Michelin Pilot Sport summers swapped with Pilot Alpins, which I’ve also done. But, I am over the twice-a-year swap, and really don’t need it down here. I put the DWS on the e46 wagon once upon a time, and I liked them, too. Just prefer the harder-edged Michelins on my primary car. And not having to worry too much about driving around on the 20-degree days with a chance of precip is, well, priceless. I am Ok with a lot more compromises for practical reasons as I get older. Which is how I ended up with an AWD car with an automatic on all seasons. LOL. Not to mention the big-toothed grille and hatchback. I’ll leave it to my son to buy the M2 equivalent in his future. He has already been bitten by the bug. |

I'm probably like 51% DWS/49% PS as of now, LOL. I've changed the tires of our Sienna recently from Michelin Primacy Tour A/S to Pirelli Scorpion A/S Plus 3. So far, I like them but haven't really tested them out in the rain or snow. Tire Rack has had good reviews, and Danica Patrick approved of them as well in a YouTube video. Hey, if it's good enough for Danica, it's good enough for me. :lol: :lol: |
