Yokohama ES-100 vs Toyo 4's on viggen

I purchased a y2K viggen a few months back & Yokohama ES-100's were on the car. The tires were close to worn out & I wanted a all season M&S tire to use to hopefully get me through the winters. I have the stock viggen wheels & a 2nd set of fondmetal 17's which I use for the winter months. My Viggen tramlined really really bad which I thought was just how the car was. The MP perf clamp/brace helped a LOT however the car still wandered all over the place. So today I added 215-45-17 Toyo 4's which are their new all season ultra high perf tire & 98% of the tramlining is gone!!!! It's a completely different car now & I also do not spin the tires with 2nd gear roll ons!!
Many people have said it before that a stiff sidewall is what's needed & I thought the ES 100 would of had a stiff sidewall due to is's summer performance tire ranking however after driving the toyo's for a few miles the ES-100's are horrible!!! We are suppose to get 2-3 inches of snow tomorrow & I am anxious to see how these toyo's do in the snow. Hopefully the 4's will do well in the snow so I can get a dedicated ummer tire probably the Toyo T1s
