Well here in PA got to test the Dunlop Sport M4's. All I can say is WOW what a tire. Was out tonight to test them and in about 6" snow they are fantastic. The best tire in the snow I have driven on. WELL worth the price.

As a added note the ABS becomes very aparent in snow stops. Really took a while to get that. But you are strait as a rail. Also the trac on light above the trip light lets you know when you are on, all in all I have no reason or desire for a snow car, even if I could afford it. With the right snows this car does great. I could not 180 or 360 without the aid of the emergancy break.

This message is for rashgirl. Where did you get the 15" wheels to fit your PT Turbo? Were there any fitment problems? All the tirestores and dealers I have contacted so far say the 15" will not fit due to the larger calipers on the GT. Thanks
