It was a serious question. I'm looking to replace my tires and I never considered anything but all-season. Why winter and summer tires? Going to use the summer on track?

Oh. Mostly it's because I've been taught that all seasons just means "Sucks at everything", and if I have the extra wheels cheap, what's the downside? I mean, tires last me a LONG time, so I could probably buy winter tires and summer tires and literally never buy tires again for this car.

I found that I really enjoyed the "mostly summer" tires on the Mazda, but they sucked big fat donkey dicks in the wintertime. so if I had the extra wheels (I do) then what's the downside to winter/summer tires?

Now sure, if you don't have spare wheels, it's not a great idea...

:dunno: I rocked winter tires on my SHO for a while, they were not much better than my Yoko A/S are on the Pontiac in the white stuff. For an AWD car, I think snow tires are a waste. The Talon has been out multiple times in the past few years on summer tires and gets around just fine...
