Let me tell you I was thoroughly disappointed! I don't understand how they can call these tires all seasons. The car was struggling in even the smallest slush of snow. It's all in the tires. They do not like the cold at all! I'll sum this up by saying I have no confidence in these tires, and if I ever got caught in some serious weather I don't think they would get me home.
To add I've had continentals in the past on my BMW's and they worked far better in the snow even blizzards, I still made it home (struggled) but still made it. Sorry but these pirellis are not worthy of being called all seasons.
On a more positive outlook they were superb in the 60 plus degree days.

they actually performed descent for me in the snow...but it was about 33, and not much more than 1 inch was on the ground. Given I drive RWD, I purchased snow tires that night...
