Michelin TB 15

Just wanted to get some opinions on these tires. I love the way they look but have some overall questions. I live in Kansas and we get all kinds of weather from ice and snow to rain and heat. My 911 is a daily driver. How well will these tires do in rain? Would anyone or has anyone used them as an all season tire?

Definitely not all season. They pick up all kinds of stuff too, small road pebbles, and kick them all over the place. They certainly do look great, but reserve them for good roads and good weather

Michelin a/s3+ are a great "all season" option for 16" Fuchs (they come in 205/55-16 and 225/50-16 stock sizes -- great in the summer, great in cold weather, great in the wet and better than summer tires if caught in surprise snow/ice -- and this comes from an all season HATER, who, after trying these michelins, gave up using my dedicated winter wheels/snow tires). Summer tires like the Michelin tb-15s get pretty hard and uncompromising when driven at below 40 degrees f.
