Do some searching on the forum re: snows. The Aero is a high performance beast. You absolutely want to tailor the tires to your driving. I drive all weather contiextremecontacts on 16" rims in the winter, since I live in LA where there is no snow (you should NOT drive snow tires in the summers). This summer I've mounted michelin sport pilot ps 2s. These come with stern warnings not to drive 'em on snow and I believe them. But they're great on pavement. If you think all this is too much of a hassle, that's fine, but when you get into more performance oriented driving (or you care about your safety for that matter), you should think about these issues. Heck, when my wife and I lived in upstate new york we had a 20 year old volvo 244 and we drove studded nokians on that thing. it was great fun driving down the freeway during a snowstorm and waving at the SUV drivers upside down... lights still on, the guy's just hanging there so you figure he's alright, just a dimwit.
