Stinger Winter Tires

[BenStung]

New to forum. Just purchased a GT2 in Chroma Red! Almost got a ticket already ;-) Kept the 19's with the summers as I originally thought I get additional winter tires and swap them....but now looking at michelin pilot sport a/s 3 (and selling the Sport 4s). I am in Northern IL...so its a 4 or 5 month window of cold. Other UHPAS recommendations or, should I just take the plunge and go with a set of winters too. Thanks in advance!

I did what you are thinking but chose BF Goodrich UHPAS , I've posted reviews and ratings for them in the tire and wheel section here . A few Canadians here have gone the UHPAS route as well , search "All Season Tire Review , I've had the Conti's and they were great and based on the reviews and other input chose to try the BFG's this time ( not a fan of Michelin due to a warranty issue I had with them a few years ago ! )

Speaking of winter, I guess I should've expected this but snow definitely gets stuck in here!

How will the brembos keep cool if the vent is blocked???
