Everyone that has those Falken live in either CA, FL, TX. What about the people with Falkens in the states with colder climate? How do they perform in the cold? Are they all seasonal tires or just autoX or track tires?

Bridgestone RE010 in 195/55-15.

There are lots of good winter tires (do a search). Get a spare set of wheels and use them. Don't compromise your performance the other nine months of the year by using all-season tires.

the azenis "apparently" isn't even really rated very well in the rain (heard indirectly through a Falken Rep), although I've had no problems in the rain here...

It's 80 degrees here year round, so I didn't care much about snow

wouldn't press your luck in the snow...get a separate set of wheels for snow tires or don't purchase the Azenis...

Azenis & Snow don't mix well

That seems to be the impression of most.

Besides, there relly isn't an all purpose tire that can do well in both perfromeace and weather catgoreies. There is no happy medium. Snow tires belong in cold snowy climate, performance tires in warmer weather.
