I need a set of A/S that will work in some snow...I'm in Philly. My stock potenzas have about 5K left on them. Either I get an A/S & keep em' on, or get snows, then 615's in the spring.. Most folks suggest the mentioned A/S's.

Price/ea:
Pirelli: $122
Kumho: $80
Falken: $75

If i go with snows, i can get the hankook icebear w300 for $89.

Of the A/S, most folks seem to say the pirelli's are the best in dry, and otherwise, all-around???

Anyone here have any of these, or maybe both to compare?

check out vulcantire.com, they have a better deal on the pirellis

the zeix suck in the snow, go with a dedicated snow tire, then get summer tires in the spring time.

I disagree. I have the pirellis on my 05 legacy. they are okay in light snow. I have the falkens on my wife's 02 forester. they handle better than my pirellis in snow.
the priellis are more summer orientated than the falkens.

I had some all season for my first winter and they did alright they got me through. This year im running Hankook Icebear W300, should be alot better than what i had. I would rather run a summer/winter tires they will both last me 2 summer/winters, while the all seasons only got one year out of them.
