I have some Fuzion ZRI's and I love them. The ride is more quite and the have really good traction in snow and ice. We just had a snow and ice in the past few weeks and they did very well. Not to mention that they have very good tread life. By this time and the miles i have on them my yoko's would of needed changing out. I highly recommend them.

I've had both the Pirelli P-Zero Nero M+S and the Michelin Pilot Sport A/S. I have not had a chance to drive the Michelin's in the snow yet. The Pirellis did pretty good in the little bit of snow that we get down here. So far I have to say that the Michelins are more to my liking than the Pirellis. The Pirellis felt like they had no side wall compared to the Advans. No suprise there. The Michelins feel much better. Still not as sharp as the Advans but better than the Pirellis.

I've used the aforementioned Pirelli P-Zero Nero for two winters. The tires gripped much better last winter. I suppose after about 16,000 miles, they're starting to wear out.

Nevertheless, they're pretty good tires for the price. I probably would get them again.

my Continental Conti Extremes are the only all seasons I have had on my evo and they are great overall. Better ride etc, but of course not as good in the dry as the stockers

I just put on a set of Falken 512s in the stock size. good traction in the snow (just returned from a snow "drift" run) and pretty good performance on the road. I had these on my last car and liked their overall performance for a good price.

Conti's are great after the break-in period, just watch out when driving through ice because sometimes too much confidence with the traction will kill u when you hit something.

I have them on my beater nissan maxima and my evo, love em.

Good tire, but not an all season.



Many have had great luck with the Pirelli P-Zero Nero, Conti Extreme Contact, Michelin Pilot Sport A/S, and Yokohama Db S2. Unfortunately this time of year many of those are on backorder.
