I'm going into my first winter with my S, and I'm in need of tires. Currently the rears are completely bald Falkens and the fronts are maybe 40% left Fuzion ZRi (yes, they were mixed on the car when I bought it). What should I go for if I intend to drive the S on nice days in the winter as well? Can I get away with "summer only" stickies, or do I need some Ultra-Performance All Season rubber if I want to drive when it's sunny but 25 degrees out?

On a semi-related note, if I do have to get All Season, can I take them off the rims in the spring to run Summer Only, then re-mount them in the late fall?

 

I drove year round on S03's and RE050's... just don't expect to go out in the snow or be prepared to drive like a granny if the temp drops too much.

 

If it's not your daily, just get the sticky summer tires.

 

Thanks Guys. The S is/was my daily in the summer, amd I see it as semi-daily in the winter. I have an old 4x4 toy I drive when it's nasty, but if it's clear, i can't seem to make myself climb into the truck...

So stickies then and FTW?

 

Yeah you'll be fine if you have a second vehicle for bad weather.
