I have no A-B test with original 19" summer tyres, but I feel I'm getting surprisingly high levels of grip in crap, cold weather.
It's worth reading a review or two on the tyre. There's a good one in Evo or Autocar which places it a close-drawn third overall, but rates it top for grip and control and points out that it's wet performance is well beyond summer tyres. I plan on keeping the winters on until early March.

Cheers guys, was pleased that I had them on today as it pi**e* down and the country lanes were lots of fun!!
Wishing for some snow now just to see how much of a difference they really make
