All season tire

The A/S 3's are good when the temps drop and will give you good traction when it's cold outside. The summer tires become dangerous below 40 degrees, the rubber compound makes it feel like you're driving on hockey pucks. Even when it's dry out, if it's cold enough you will easily lose traction if you're not extremely careful, after one too many close calls I put the A/S 3's on my V and couldn't be more pleased.
The A/S 3's will get you through a dusting to an inch in a pinch, but if you are planning to daily drive in the snow you should really consider a set of dedicated winter tires. Rear wheel drive and close to 470HP aren't a good mix in the snow without winter tires.

OP - something else to consider in regards to dedicated winter tires. They will not only improve your traction, but more importantly they will improve your braking in snow and in very cold temps.
