Tom, I agree 100%. The reason why I am considering switching is to save the life of the winter tires as long as possible. I feel as though the tread on the "summers" (Which are really Eagle GTs, I just call them summer b/c I have 2 sets, obviously) do not wear nearly as fast as the snows.
I needed something to make me smile, so yesterday I broke down and switched out the snows for the summer rims. Its crazy how much "stickier" the tires feel, the ride is much louder and rougher. Its much harder for me to drive with my knee on the steering wheel with the summers, with the winters it was easy to drive hehe... But definitely way more fun to accelerate now!!
