Because it's CT, I still have a need to switch to winter tires (non-staggered on my set of 17's ASA) but I can drive the all seasons deeper into the season before switching.

The Conti's have been great, they have terrific wet weather performance and provide a good ride when the temps drop (unlike my old Pilot Sports summer tires, which turned rock hard when the temps dropped below 40).

Because of the mild winter, I never switched to winter tires this season ... I got away with it.
I had those tires back in 2009 when I had a MB C350 rear wheel drive and I thought they were very good in the winter weather I'm surprised you need to change them out.
