The OEMs if you have summer performance tires will just plain out kill you (I mean dead) if driven in winter conditions.

I went square 275s blizaks all the way around, the car was rock solid in everything the winter had to offer.....not that it is over yet but I am hoping for spring any day now. 315s will tend to ride on top of the snow and you really want to cut through it........Steve
