Good winter/all season tire
Looking for a good set of tires for my stock rims on 03 GS300
Currently have Michellen radial XSE X green 215/60R16
Ive heard a lot of rave about the The Pilot Sport A/S but they don't come in this size according to the guy I just spoke to.
They have the exalto AS for $135 each (costco) anyone know if they are good? 45k warranty on them.
A few others they offer
Michelin - Energy™ MXV4 S8
Michelin - Primacy™ Alpin PA3
BFGoodrich - Traction T/A
These are going to be primarily for winter time (indiana) and used from November to February or so with mostly in town driving but long trips on occasion. I do want a good all season tire though as I am selling my "summer" rims and tires so when they are gone I don't need to get new tires for the stock rims (which is why im not just getting pure snow tires)
TIA

dude, I had Michelin PS AS but they were HOOOOORRIBLE. BUt then again, I went from Toyo T1-S to those...I'm on Toyo Proxes AS now. Much better than PS A/S.
I use Dunlop Wintersport M3 DSST for snow, you'll need them when it snows around here.

The Michelin Alpin PA3 series is actually a performance winter snow tire and not an all season tire. I actually just dumped my runflats for the Michelin Pilot (not Primacy) Alpin PA3 tires as my November to March tires. So far (less than 250 miles) I am impressed with how smooth and quiet these are for a dedicated winter snow tire. No snow yet, so I can't speak to the handling there. The Pilot Alpins set me back $200 for each.

don't leave out the Bridgestone RE960 AS... by far one of the best performance all season tires out there... however, as has been noted, if you are really doing winter driving for any determinable portion of the year, it would definitely be in your best interest to invest in a set of beater wheels and snow tires...
