What is the problem with the conti tyres ?

Just installed conti on my PGTS but haven't had any snow to test them with.

Looking at some of the big test different car magazines have done the conti always ends in the top 3-5 depending on how the test is done.

You will find out when you get to drive in the snow. Otherwise great tires

Sounds very strange - as I said. They are in top on most reviews I have read. Also in the snow.

Okay - now I have been driving the Conti tyres in snow. I still think they are great. Sure you can feel it is a big car with big 20 inch tyres, but they handle very good I think.

Default 20' All season tires in winter?

Anyone use 20' all seasons tires for winter? Wonder how they do and if worth just getting all seasons vs set of summer and winter tires.

I use 20" all season Pirelli Cinturato P7 so far this season with no issues. I have a set of 20" snow tires on another set of rims I have not used yet this season. We have had some respectably awful Rocky Mountain weather and the tires have done well.
