Unfortunately in central Mass is can snow quite a bit.

My Toyo T1s are great summer tires that can go in the wet and dry with exceptional handling and braking.

However, they would not do very well in the snow or ice. This is OK in the winter since my M3 convertible stays inside. My version of snowtires is a 2001 Subaru Legacy

I will see how these Michelines do on the TL-s, and if they are not good enough in winter, I will consider the Michelin Alpines. The problem is that I will have to buy four wheels that can fit an Acura TL. What a pain.

The real insult is that the tires that came with the car are $200/each.
