You can be as careful as possible and it won't matter one bit to young mayhem who swipes you because she was too busy texting her BFF. That can happen on a sunny warm day anytime.

How many miles and what were your alignment specs? How was the wear front vs. rear?

I checked mine after around 14k of very aggressive driving and I still had a ton of tread left. Granted on the Mustang I was able to rotate every 5k.

i put a bit over 13k on them. no rotations.
i had everything aligned - they were in spec even wear... i might have gotten another thousand miles out of them but it was already winter - so i just swapped them out.

I think they exaggerate it a bit claiming how all seasons barely out performs summer tires. Do they? Well I agree 100% with first hand experience, but I think them using a RWD car on ice exaggerates it a bit

My civic had performance summer tires, driving home in the snow, total accumulation was about 2-3 by now, and my neighborhood is practically white. My gf at the time driving her RSX had toyo proxes, all season tires.

Long story short, she made it up the hills in my neighborhood, me slipping, sliding and stuck on the bottom of the neighborhood lol not to mention I was getting a little loosey on the highway, and this is all in a honda civic!

I think the gap between all seasons and summers is just as big as all seasons are to winters.
