Read the PM....the Proxes 4 are great. You'll find that a lot of TLers made the transition to the Proxes 4.

It'll probably be hard for acur8ly to read the PM since you sent it to vinarnold.

I've heard a lot of people liking the Proxes 4. I have not heard anything about its snow performance though. So I don't know...

PoochaKannInc, good point... I'm not as concerned as about the snow performance, I still have my pilot a/s in good shape, I got these on some 18" chromies that I'm trying really hard to wait till Spring is official to put on the car.

Here is my take on snow driving....no matter what car or tire you have, if you do not compensate and adapt to your driving environment, ain't no tire gonna save you from skidding into a ditch, and sometimes that just means recognising when to stay home in the first place. Discretion is the better part of valor sometimes. That said, my TL with the Proxes 4 have been great in the snow we have had here in NY. However, not to brag, but I am a great driver too, so my skills are far and above the normal commuter you see out there. That is why my summer car will be the upcoming Z06.....won't have to worry about getting all seasons for that baby!!
