I had these on my v36 but they were sized for a 1st gen coupe by the original owner. I'd say they fit better in a v35 coupe but still worked well on my second gen sedan. If anything gave it an aggressive look. These particular http://www.tirebuyer.com/tires are a great compromise for snow capability without sacrificing dry sportiness. They are still performance tires so you don't feel much mushiness, still stiff. But they ride smooth. I'll never forget the feeling of passing by SUVs and trucks (that prob had poor http://www.tirebuyer.com/tires) in my rear wheel drive sports car. And when the opportunity was there I could blip the throttle and hang the back end out on turns with control. Fun fun.

Summer tires on the G in the snow is downright dangerous, so if you don't get these please think about investing in something.

One rear tire has 3" of curb rash (see photo), I got a little over zealous playing in a parking lot. Other than that no other rash, no bends, no patches, no leaks.

Rear tires have 1 or 2 seasons left in them - great to try something out or get through this year. Front tires have plenty of tread and several seasons left.



I'm in Howard county MD but work in greenbelt so anywhere between that works well.

How do these handle in the snow?

Night and day difference, with summer tires the G is a joke on the snow. These snow tires made my Rwd car handle better than my wife's fwd Mazda 3 with low profile all season tires. Obviously, these rear tires are nearing the end of their tread wear but they will still get you through the snow this winter unless you're planning on driving in a foot of snow (in which case the G runs into ground clearance issues). I always put weight in the trunk to make the rear tires bite better.
