When I viewed TireRack's comparison videos I really wanted a summer tire that could still have grip/traction off the line in colder to freezing temperatures. I started realizing my tires were wearing faster because they'd always be slipping/spinning when it got colder than 40 degrees.
After learning about the sunflower oil that helps keep traction at low temps this tire seemed and is perfect for my needs. Would I recommend these tires for winter? If you're AWD and you get very very mild winters with less than 2-3 inches of snow you should be fine. If it's anymore if strongly suggest just getting winter tires and good summer tires. They may cost you more but both sets will last much longer and you'll have the best of the summer and best of the winter with 100% confidence.
I had to move my car 40 feet from my garage this last winter and my car was slipping and going sideways without even giving any throttle at all I just gave up and waited for it to thaw.
