I cannot say enough about these tires on street or DE track days.

I am in Akron, OH. I have purchased two sets of Michelin Pilot all season tires since I purchased the car in 96. I am due for new and I'll be damned if I am buying anything but a summer tire. The squirmy all season Mom f****rs.

I have taken the car out in real snow about twice - mainly for the experience. Screw that. Most 911's are garage queens thru the winter, like mine. How stupid was that. How much rubber (let alone softer rubber) did I leave on the table? Like a friggin square yard?

I like the RE11's but Hankook is talking to me as I know they are a bit cheaper.

Whispering Pines, North Carolina? Just slow down when it rains and get tires meant for your car.
