Well technically this will be the cars first winter, so we will see how it goes the first storm. Not happy about it, but have no choice this winter, bought a house so there goes the winter beater fund lol!
I would suggest Blizzak LM-60. I ran those on my 2011 all last winter; they were great. Grew up driving rear-wheel, so this might be biased, but it was the safest I felt in long time; the front wheel drive cars I have had never seemed to track well in deep snow.
Welcome, nice car and great color. Get a set of Dunlop winter sport M3's. They are great in the snow. I had an 04 GT that I ran all year long and in the winter I threw them tires on and had no problems. I wouldn't suggest driving in 6 inches of snow, but up to 3-4 inches You will be fine, just take it easy...
