Just turned over about 500 or so miles on my new tires. They are Nitto NeoGen's, 215/40/17. They actually have a snow/mud rating according to Nitto. So far they handle pretty well in the snow, much better than the sp9000's and the goodyear eagle f1's I had on before. As far as dry/wet handling, bad-ass on both. Corners really well and holds to the road. Anyway, just thought I'd put this thread up and recommend them to anyone who is getting new tires. So far, i would give them about 8.5. Also, pretty reasonable on price, $94 a tire from discount tire direct.http://www.discounttiredirect.com/product/tires/nithz6.ang.jpg

I bought new set of Falkens ZR 17's Good in the snow and wet grounds.

4/5 on snow/wet grounds
3/5 for hard cornering
