I first tried the BlizzX in almost got in a wreck & immediately made a u-turn and took them back and ordered up the AS3+. That weekend was a massive dumping of snow that lasted a month. True winter tires are useless in the rain. I had absolutely zero problem getting around with the AS3+ in the snow. I felt they were equivalent to the summer tires if just below the threshold.
From a G37xS owner to another, have you noticed with the traction control on you could still induce power oversteer accelerating out of a 90 corner? I did exactly that. It made me wonder if my traction control was not even working at all!😢
I have the exact set up. I also have a set of Michelin X ice, so I have never driven my pilot sport all season 4 under snowy conditions. G37xS is a beast with winter tires though. 😅 Follow up post: We had our first snow this season. Although I could get around in my Pilot sport A4, still there was a huge difference when comparing with my snow tires. It is a little hopeless on ice😅. I guess I was spoiled by years of driving on snow tires. Getting a set of blizzard WS90 tomorrow 😅
Perhaps an all weather tire might work for you next time you need tires? There are some really great ones available and they are severe snow rated just like full winters. Michelin CrossClimate2, several from Vredestien, Goodyear WeatherReady, etc.
2:45 idk why i thought you was gonna play basketball lol
😂
I did too LOL

Being a rear wheel biased awd system, yes.

What do you mean by all weather tires not performing as well in dry conditions? I’m new to all this and also have a RWD vehicle.
Due to tread design and rubber compound, they give up a bit dry traction at the limit. Every tire has a compromise.
I get too much snow where I’m at, and it gets too cold… I wish I could get by on all-seasons it would save me a lot of money.
