20in Wheels with All Season Tires
Greetings,
Does anyone have all season tires on their 20in factory wheels? They came with summer tires.
If so, any photos you could post.
Thank you.

The stock size is not very common. All the choices are upwards of $300 a tire. Why are you looking for all seasons? If you're going to drive your car in winter, I'd advise you get a set of the 18" GT wheels and put snow tires on if you get snow.
Where do you live and what kind of temperatures are you facing? If you're mainly looking for dry and wet traction, "summer" tires are actually what you want. When the stock tires wear out, you could switch to 255/35/20 which offers a lot more choices, or 275/35/20 (same, more choices) but is just a little big for the 20x9 wheels.

[QUOTE=mlcinema;7005596]Greetings,

I live in an apartment in NYC, so taking off the 20" summers for the winter and storing them was not a option for me. I bought a set of BFG Comp 2 A/S from Tire Rack for about $147 a tire(255/35/20). Total with install at a local rep was about $750.
We've already had some winter weather and the tires are great. As long as you take it easy shouldn't have problem. When I had the summer ones on even rain created a loss of traction. When I bought the car new I tried to work a deal with the dealer to swap tire, but he wasn't interested.
here's a link to the tires.

I have been caught in a sudden snow storm in the Toronto area back in November last year and I was glad to have all season tires, they probably saved my life.
I usually don't drive my car in the snow or in the rain, but I owe one to those Pirelli let me tell you. Here is a pic of the shady motel ( I use the word lightly) I stopped for the night on my way home.
