GT Performance Edition winter tires

[Larry Paul]

Has anyone swapped out their summer tires for year round all season performance tires? Notice a big drop in traction?

As an alternative to putting winter tires on and off 2x/year.

Also, have we confirmed a 19" wheel from a Premium will fit? (Apologies if it was answered earlier, I didn't see it)

Here are a couple threads that may help:

About the 19” premium wheel fitting on the GTPE, yes it does. I posted that here last year when I tried it out for one of the members. https://www.macheforum.com/site/thr...mance-edition-wheel-question.9451/post-276561

I did exactly the same thing...245/45R20 Michelin Crossclimate2 tires on my original GTPE rims for the winter, 275/40R20 General Gmax RS's on 20x9 +35ET rims for the summer.

How do you like the Crossclimate2's? They look like they have good reviews.

They work pretty well in the snow, and do surprisingly well in the dry. For pure snow, on my last car (Focus RS), I got a little more grip with Bridgestone Blizzaks.
