Took delivery on my 2014 Fiesta ST 2 weeks ago replacing the 2003 Mini Cooper S in my garage. The first order of business was to replace those 17" summer tires with 15" Michelin X-ice 3s. I had an opportunity to try the as delivered summer tires on the first snow and it wasn't pretty. I drove it about a quarter mile turned around, put it back in the garage and kept it there until my order from TireRack arrived. The winter tires turned it from a handful to a snow cat. The ST is great in the snow with the Michelins on it.

An ice storm is headed this way tomorrow but I'm ready,
Frank

Hey welcome, I'm also a previous Mini S owner, I had a 2004. Hopefully we'll see more Mini owner migration lol.
