Although this was a MPG topic, I know what you're getting to.

Our 45 AMG has all season/weather tires that lean more for the snow and ice. Is our designated all weather car. While the M4 is obviously the king during good weather, I wouldn't even think about taking it out during even a small snow storm here in the Rockies. Once we drop below freezing, that tail wants to whip, if not for the xD. Now, if the 45 had good summer tires, I think it would give the 400lbs heavier M4 a run for its money "in the twisties", straights, M4 is king, again, in fair weather.
