I drive my camaro in the dead of winter here in North Dakota with m/s rated tires, never have a problem, you just have to be careful

 

WOW IndianScout! Glad I don't have the snow factor to worry about. Only rain, but we average about 25" of that per year. If I want snow, it's about an hour in the Sierra's from me. The N7000 handled the rain well though!!

 

this is the first time I have heard good things about nexen, I normally try to stay within the Goodyear,Michelin,Hankook range for tires. so I got some nice Michelin winter tires for 100,16 inch, a guy has 4 bf Goodrich all seasons wants 60 a piece. should I wait until winter is over for all seasons?

 

NO, if you have winter tires, you should buy good summer tires for your other set, not all season. When I say good, I mean ones that handle and brake well in rain/wet.
