*Winter tire package*

Would not be able to drive the car without it the past two weeks here in the northeast. The recent snow falls really put the car to the test. I am happy to report that the Pilot Alpin PA2's were phenomenal. They handled every situation ice, snow etc. The only problem was with 6+ inches of snow and it wasn't the tires but the cars ground clearance that was the issue. So anyone on the fence on whether to purchase, this is a no brainer.

 

+1. Plus, it is fun!!

 

I'm running continental T810S tires and they're great too. N rates and great wear so far. 8000 km and maybe half worn in the back.

Should get 20000km outta the rears if I slow down.

 

Yep, i drive on PA2 almost every week and grip is great. My local roads keep snow for quite long time and it does not get plowed for some time after storms so difference feels right away as I have regular all-season on Lexus. I expected to have issues with wide rear tires on packed snow but in reality it is a complete opposite - rear is very stable.

 

another +1 on the PA2s... especially nice grip, even in the slush and grime that Boston's road crew can't seem to manage. Those tires coupled with the grip of the C4 make it as reliable as my Jeep used to be....minus the ground clearance of course.
