Here is the Description for your tires: "The ContiSportContact 3 is Continental Tire's Max Performance Summer tire developed for the drivers of powerful sports cars, sports coupes and luxury sedans. The ContiSportContact 3 is designed to combine outstanding braking capability and agile steering precision. Like all summer tires, the Continental ContiSportContact 3 is not intended to be driven in near-freezing temperatures, through snow or on ice."

Hope this helps.

We had the same issue. You need to spring for the PIrelli winter tires to be mounted; you cannot drive a 100 K CDN car out the dealership with those slick tires -- trust me, those tires are essentially slicks...are very close to it.

Buy the winters, you will not be able to stop without them.
