Welcome to the Forum KevinJace.:wavey:
When I leased my 2011 Limited in March 2011, the first thing I did was trade in the Hankooks on a set of Yokohama Parada Spec-X tires. This was done mainly because of the reviews on Hankook tires for poor Winter performance. Granted the reviews did not pertain to the specific tires that were on the vehicle but I wanted something with a more aggressive tread since we can still get some good snowfalls in March. I have the same tires now on my MKT and am quite happy with them. I'm a person that uses dedicated Winter tires so the Hankooks won't see any Winter driving. There are members who are very happy with them and others who are not. Sorry if this wasn't particularily helpful.

Thank you for the welcome, Peter! And I appreciate your information. Everything is helpful . I guess when I pick up the car, I'll have to see how it handles in the wet, as I've seen a few comments about the tires having poor traction. If it doesn't handle the rain well, that'll be a strong indication that I'll have to change them before snow starts falling.
Once again, thanks for the insight!
