Default New winter shoes

So I finally ditched the Goodyear RS-A after 24K miles yesterday. I don't bother wasting my time with rotation of tires. The fronts tend to go smooth at the outer shoulders and I didn't want to put them in ther rear and risk oversteering (wife's car). There was still plenty of tread, but IMO, these tires are absolute junk in the snow and pretty slick in the rain too.

We got some Pirelli scorpion snow tires. And guess what? We had a winter storm just now. Ice, snow, slush... general winter mess. It drove beautifully - almost as well as the Goodyears in rain!!! People were slipping left and right and generally stayed in tonight but we went out shopping and eating tonight.

Just wanted to give my 2 cents re: Pirelli Scorpion snow tires.

What kind of car you have for 13.2 1/4 mile times at 105! I know for sure it isnt the 400H
