Tires DUNLOP or SUMITOMO
Stock dunlops...terrible in snow.
Winter tires...beast mode!
It's a night and day difference.
I'm very happy with my [Sumitomo HTR Z III](https://www.tirerack.com/tires/tires.jsp?tireMake=Sumitomo&tireModel=HTR+Z+III), for an affordable high performance tire. It's not going to last 60k miles, but it was a lot of fun slaying the Tail of the Dragon.
The Dunlop Direzza ZIII is worth looking into. A close friend has half a season of autocross and 4 time trial events (So about 17 twenty to 30 minute long sessions) on his ZIII in a 2013 NC and they still have life left. For autocross they're basically a less grippy Re-71R, but they come into their own on track.
Dunlop direzza zIII's good wear 9/10 traction never get greasy, great stiff feel and break away.
I have been using the Sumitomo HTR A/S P02s for the last 80k (just go 3rd set on front) as a good compromise in price and quality.
I had a good experience with Sumitomo htr a/s p02.
Once the q4s are over like, 70 degrees, or basically u ride a few miles on the turns gently, they'll be warm enough and will stick like glue.
I think the dunlops will wear out faster than the michelin , in my experience .
probably a terrible choice, i couldn’t get rid of the stock dunlops fast enough
40f is like ice skates . I drove in 4 inches on dunlops in my 18 wrx , wow , that was a challenge
