All-Season Radials on a c63 S
Maybe a stupid question, but humor me. I am coming to the end of my current lease and the C 63 S is on my short list. I live in the Northeast and the car will be a daily-driver. Due to our crappy cold winters, I would need to change from the summer performance tires to all-season radials. I do not want to buy a second set of wheels since this car is a lease, so the all-seasons will need to be on full-time.
That being said, how much will the performance be affected by the all-seasons? Will I just be spinning tires at launch due to the lack of grip? Is it even worth purchasing the car and spending the premium for it, then putting on tires that weren’t made for it? I have another performance car that I use in the summer, but would like to have the performance for the other 6 months of the year.
Thanks...
