After driving them for a few hundred miles, they now feel "normal". UNfortunately, we've had some ICY and snowy weather to put them to use. Fortunately, the Blizzaks hug the road in spite!

I'm confused... it seems like I'm not the only one. I just pulled one of my headlamp bulbs, it's a Philips and it's labeled with both the HIR2 and the 9012 number. So what gives? Could someone please advise what I can change to get the light output brighter, more like my 540i and Cayenne? I like this Edge Sport, but the lighting leaves a lot to be desired.

I recently took delivery of my new 2011 Edge Sport and have loved most everything about it (except perhaps the erratic behavior of the Microsoft Sync interface), but I'll use another post for that topic. I've got just under 4,000 miles on it so far with the 22" wheel setup. (Have gotten lots of looks with this new "Hottie", I might add, more than I get lately with my Cayenne Turbo!) Since I travel 45-50 miles morning and evening to my office, on secondary roads in Minnesota, I just installed a set of winter wheels and tires, Bridgestone Blizzaks (245/60R18 s) on OZ wheels. My first trip out of the shop, it was raining and I seemed to notice a little understeer, like it may have been a little slippery. But now the roads are dry again and it still feels a little "swervy" when I rock the steering wheel back and forth. Does anyone else out there have any experience with this tire? I checked the air pressure and topped them off to 40 lbs, as it recommended. This made no difference (they were initially at 35 lbs). I realize the rubber is much softer and suspect that maybe the new deep treads of this soft rubber is causing this handling feel, but would like to hear from someone that might confirm this or offer another explanation perhaps? Thanks for your reply...
