I bought an '09 WRX in October here in Michigan. I noticed the Dunlop Sport 01 tires looked pretty aggressive and thought I would how they would do in the winter. The window sticker said as standard equipment; 225/45/17 All Season Tires. About a week after having the car i looked up replacement tire cost on the Tire Rack site and found that they were summer only tires. As many of you may know we get snow in Michigan. I did not want to shell out $500-$600 for snow wheels and tires. I contacted SOA and told them of the misprint and they agreed to replace the Dunlops with Bridgestone RE960AS Pole Position tires that I requested.
I am pleased with the car, tires and SOA
