Oh Lord! My first commute in Chicago snow
A friend has a set on his 370Z, as they did do well in the snow, not happy with the tread life, or how they handled in the heat....I knocked those out of the box early...
I have been on them for a week now and I can tell you that these g max's have everything you will need in a tire. For our 2 ton topless babes, these ride incredibly smooth and quiet. Much better ride than stock potenza's. Im coming from both a 350Z and a 370Z and I would have loved a set of the g max's on them. Great cornering and handling on dry and wet roads, havent felt them slip at all. Yesterday I hammered it from a dead stop and gripped like glue, no break away at all on the wet snow melted road. Complete confidence on wet on and off ramps on the Chicago expressways. No sway during quick lane changes, and no where close to the harsh ride we are all used to on our stock rubber. Im not just bragging this tire because I have a set, if they were crappy, I'd tell ya like it is. Amazing ride, sidewalls are stiff into hard corners but smooth when simple lane changes. All the reviews out there on this tire say the same great things, and I cant say anything different. I'd buy them again, in a second. 978.00 out the door at a local firestone, they dont normally carry general tires, but found them for me. In person this is an impressive tire. In the first ten miles I knew these were different, better, smoother and quieter ride, superior handling and darn good in light snow and magical in the sloppy stuff. I challenge you to find a bad review....thats why I jumped on board.

I have the Continental DWS on my vert and they have been great. Solid in the summer and just what I need for typical Minnesota winter driving every now and then (I also have an Acura MDX for real weather).
The main thing I liked about switch to the Contis was summer traction in the rain. I never considered snows since I have the SUV with AWD.
