[mmattt]

So realistic I should be good jist getting a set of summers thst aren't tracked focused?

Ya now I can actually join you! Honestly I would like to get a full set of summers just for day to day driving. Cup 2s are too aggressive for that. Honestly just want tonget something on it to get it back.

@Bulletproof I'm the Matt that emailed you about if you were going to relist

Hi Matt I assumed you were. Glad you found a nice Seneca blue one and I'm glad I'm keeping mine !

I think all season tires might be the smartest option. I have 2 sets of rims and tires and it makes swapping very easy. I have see. In threads that the Michelin PS (A/S) All season is a great option. I currently am running PS 4S but have not used them in negative temps. I imagine they are significantly better than the cup 2s. Depending how many kms on the car, you may be replacing the cup 2s soon anyway. Why not be proactive with a set of tires.
I may consider selling you my extra set of gloss black v spoke wheels if want to avoid swapping tires on your current rims. Jason.

I appreciate the offer. But I am.going to hunt for a nice set of light weight aftermarket for it. Impossible for me.to stay oem with things..I'm sure you understand.

I have some parts that you may be interested in, namely a rear spoiler (nice CT Carbon 3 piece duck tail), spacers, black out tail lights (I may keep those), aluminum washer fluid cap, some carbon bits, etc. We can all connect this spring and go over stuff. 3rd cat delete and miltek valve controller a must. After that lower using GRP sleeves and intake. I have Eventuri.
I also have Hawk carbon pads which is a brake dusk game changer and new 2 piece rotors from Giro disc. Plus lightweight titanium battery, titanium wheel bolts, lightweight wheels, aero bits. I have a bit of a problem.

Ya mostly all of that is on my list. And definitely interested in the duck tail and other bits. Shoot me a DM with list and prices.

Cant speak for the Cup 2s/PS4s, but F1 eagles are perfectly fine in my opinion for some highway cruising even if its freezing. The rear tires should last between 10,000 and 15,000km if you don't track your car. Never had problems with heavy rain either. Not an all-season tire by any means, but you'll be fine if there's no snow.

I am very much satisfied with the Continental DWS06+. I'm nearing 25,000km on this set, including 3 track days, and the rear tires have plenty of thread left. Not the ideal tire for the track, but I didn't really notice a huge difference for street driving compared to the F1s (unless you want to slide the car at every stop light). Haven't tried them in the snow yet, but I have dedicated winter tires anyway.

Also, lots of blue in this thread LOL

Lol! Ton of Blue.
So I've sourced a set of Yokohama so just need to confirm the selling dealer will put them on for me before pick up. Keep the cup 2s for any possible track days.

Hey Oliver great to see a Canadian car getting plenty of use. What Province are you in? Do you actually drive your Emira in the snow?

I’m in Quebec, though my girlfriend lives in Ontario.

I try to make an effort to avoid snowstorms, but honestly the biggest concern is driving through slush. The front end is not heavy enough and braking becomes very difficult. Turning the wheel only leads to massive understeer.

Sport mode will let you do a 90° before traction control kicks in while Track will let you do a full 180°. Tour will immediately cut power and keep the car straight if it detects any slippage. The amount of micro-adjustments per second is very impressive when driving on ice.

The amount of damage caused by the salt is fairly limited. I am starting to see some rust on the front grilles, but I've seen a lot worse on cars that are parked near the ocean. I plan on switching to the 420s grilles anyway.

There is some pitting on the rear subframe, but I'm not particularly concerned considering that the engine or the transmission will need to be taken out of the car at some point due to mileage. The subframe isn't too expensive and I could probably just sandblast it anyway.

The exhaust has corroded quite a bit, but there's plenty of guys replacing theirs for an aftermarket so I'm not concerned either.

I've put the Goodyear Eagle F1 all-seasons on second set of wheels for mine...find them to be quite good thus far.
