We have an RSXTypeS and the stock Michelins sucked period, didn't matter if there was snow or if it was dry out. Went to dedicated summer and winter tires. Dunlop Winter Sports M3's in the stock 205/55/VR16 (yes they are V rated) on the stock rims. They seem to claw their way through the snow looking for pavement. Paid 100 each mounted and balanced. They will be on the car from Oct/Nov til the end of April.

For the summer running 225/45/ZR17's Goodyear EAGLE F1 GS-D3's. I only expect to get about 3 seasons out of each set max, though.
