Swapped the 21’s and summer tires off my summit reserve for 18” XDs and Kumho Venture with a 3 peak mountain snowflake rating. Had 10” of snow and didn’t bat an eye in snow mode.
Kumho - superior value and great handling.
Kumho ecsta sport S. Huge improvement
I got 275 and use to have pirellis now I got kumhos they don’t spin as much as the pirellis from a straight dig I use to fish tail hard when my foot was deep in the pedal I recommend kumhos and falkens they straight
Try kumho tires korean brand and decent quality for its price, for my sedan its about 2.8k per tire
You'll be fine. They're just not good over thick snow or obviously ice. Just stay in the lane that you see is completely dry. I'm still running mine now, its below 10 here in NY and feels in the negatives. Fine in the snowy roads with just traction semi off. No issues. Only sharp turns the tires give out so go slow with moderate throttle.
On my last car Michelin Pilot Sport 4S lasted ~20k but that's kind of expected due to how soft they are. On my current I have Kumho Ecsta Sport and they have lasted about the same but instead of wear being the issue they're cracking/tearing.
No, I made the mistake of driving my car around 40 degrees when it was raining, it was scary. Those tires are trash except when it’s dry and higher than 50 degrees
The tires are uncomfortable rocks at any temperature under about 55 degrees, and will actually fail at temperatures around 40 degrees. They are just-barely-road-safe competition tires essentially designed for use in warm ambient temperatures only.
I had an STI with the stock tires for a long time and they were terrible in the cold weather.
