Picked up a 2016 CF TVD Performance package RCF mid Dec 2016. Have put about 4K km on the car. Have to say I'm very satisfied with the car so far. Great blend of performance/luxury/ reliability. Coming from a G37 IPL coupe so I consider this a good step up in all three categories.
It's my daily driver and so far with Bridgestone Blizzak LM32 it has been fairly decent in the snow. I decided to go with the staggered summer setup 255/19 front and 275/19 rear. Was worried about the rear being to wide for the snow but the performance has been very good in the snow, much better than my IPL on Michelin Xice 3 (225/18 all around). Also when the roads are on the drier side have been able to put down good power, even when it's -9 deg C (16 F).
Looking forward to spring and remounting the MPSS :-)

Welcome WolfMan! Yours must be one of the few RC-Fs being driven on snow. I also drove my IS-F for two winters and I know the experience. My RC-F is now in storage and has never seen snow. LOL. Anyways, am glad that you mentioned your winter tire brand and specs. Again, welcome!
