Really well, especially as the temperature drops. The RX with these tires handled the snow better than my front wheel drive Chrysler 300M. The only advice I have is not to leave them on the car later in the spring once the temperature gets above 50~60 as they tend to get soft & then the handling is not as good.

Ya. I really wish these were 18's. Know what it does to the speedo if i put on the 16s for the winter and 18s in the summer. Odo would be off too right?

The tire size is still correct for the speedometer. The only thing different than stock is the wheel is 17 inches and the tire is a little narrower which is better for driving in snow. The tire's 215 width and 55 ratio results in the same tire overall diameter as original equipment. So the speedometer works just fine with these tires/wheels.
