Wheels and tires

[Jperns]

Hey folks. Sorta new here. Just bought a 23 MMe PE. I live in colorado and if I'm understanding right my tires are probably not going to cut it in the snow? Thinking they're the ones that don't come with all-seasons? So long story short I guess new snow wheels and tires for me? Thanks in advance

What’s the question?

If you got a GT-PE, then yes it comes with Summer tires these are not for use under 45F. You are correct that you will need either all season or snow tires when it is colder. ??

lots of discussion on this, your GTPE could have come with Pirelli summer-only or Continental all-season tires. The continentals would work in the snow and colder temps the Pirelli tires are dangerous in the cold and undrivable in the snow.

For me here in Minnesota we get winter conditions so I do switch out to winter tires. I have been using the Vredestein Wintrac Pro they are a very good match for the MME. Bring a performance winter they have precise steering are more compliant ride they drive like a UHP in dry and wet conditions. Most winter tires don't have the level of grip in dry and wet that these do.

Just put my Michelin ICE-X SUV studless tires on last week. Love the grip on these. Very highly rated. Got mine at Discount Tire, they’ll swap back to my AS Tires for free in spring.

Just tires. Thinking of getting different rims for summer. Installed, it ran me $900.
