Only thing imo that stinks are that the tires are not good down to 30 degrees. Today it is 40 and sunny and dry as can be.

The more I research the more i want. I can stomach new tires every year.
505 hp and RWD means "slow in the snow".

NO SUMMER ULTRA-PERFORMANCE TIRE should be entertained at temps below 40. The Trofeos are cast with less tread depth, besides. A 235/40 X 19 is the same diameter, and considerably narrower, for those diehard DDs.

Throw some Blizzaks or Alpins on ALL 4 CORNERS and you'll at least get out your driveway. And narrower tires work even better.
