Need new shoes.........

for the STi, the ones that come on the car are simply not intended for winter driving.

What should I get? Just some high performance all season shit like Nitto's or something?

Tire whores, I need some advice please.

You don't want to invest in some winter rims/shoes???

The Michelin Pilot Sport A/S is about as good as it gets for a 4-season tire. In my opinion at least...

There are always the Conti Extreme Contacts

Beltfed, how do you like the stock tires on the STI? I was thinking about getting a set for the CL.

Right now, I would prefer not buying another set of rims......if the set I have gets shitted up I'll buy a new set of something.

The stock tires on the STi are very aggressive, they are nice for what they are intended for.

I'll look at all the tires recommended and go from there, thanks for the input.

I bought the STi for invoice ($29,200 something, plus the added dealer options at cost also).
