Your completely right, but then theres the other side of things also. People that think they can just adjust their driving habits with all seasons, and they will be fine. Sure - they're smart, and safe, but theyre also the jerk on the queensway slowing down traffic because they need to 'adjust' their driving habits to conform to the conditions. Just get the tires that will give you the appropriate traction, jesus!

We all know tires are one of the most important mods in the summer when it comes to traction, Im not sure why people have such a hard time grasping the winter tire concept. :rolleyes: Same s***, different season.

I dont use all seasons at all. Winter time = winter tires. Summer time = performance tires.

All seaons is a budget tire for people who cant afford the proper combo. Even then I would argue that it works out to the same cost if you get 2 full sets.
