RSQ911

Hi everyone- It is getting near the time to replace the Michelin super sports on my 99' 996, and I am considering going the all season route on tires. If my understanding is correct, it is more than tread design, but the compound adheres better bellow 40. Car is driven year round, except snow and ice. I have the stock 18's (225/40. 265/35).

I am looking at two different Yokohama tires:
Avid Envigor
Advan Sport a/s

Has anyone tried or used these? I have used different yokohamas on other cars I have owned and always been pleased with them, but I am not familiar with these.

Thanks, Paul

RSQ: First, be prepared to accept that there is an apparent majority here that discourage the use of all season tires, mainly because those don't perform optimally in any weather. There is convincing support for that. But, I don't believe the discussion should end there. I would consider whether the limitations apply to your purposes and intended use. I put in lots of miles per year on all season tires and never felt unsafe because of it.

I am using these. http://www.bridgestonetire.com/tire/...-pole-position I will not drive if snow or ice is around. More or less a DD. 99 C2 Cab....

I wouldn't put A/S tires on a 911. Summer tires perform great in the rain, as long as the temperature is not below about 40 degrees. Below that, slow down and be careful. If you regularly drive in snow, then go with a set of snow tires on different rims.

Sometimes all season tires are the most correct choice. I live in Phoenix but work in Prescott. Prescott is at 5000' and gets four seasons/winter snow. In January/February I can leave home in the dry and get to work having to drive through snow, possibly before the gravel trucks come through.

Nobody has snow tires in Prescott because after several trips to Phoenix on the dry roads you'd eat up your tires. All seasons make the most sense.
