  1. @037 Many thanks. I will check them out.
  2. Hello Edge Experts, In researching my issue, came across this forum. Hope you can help. I live in California and frequent Lake Tahoe in the winter. This is the 3rd winter with my Sport. No complaints last 2 winters. This year, when leaving the ski resort, I lossed complete traction at about 10-15 mph. A few cars in front of me seemed to have issues as well while others had none. It was unusually cold that day around 26 deg. Yeah I know but that is cold for CA. When researching this, my understanding is that you can have the best AWD system but snow rated tires are critical to traction. My understanding is this means the tires remain soft at lower temperature. So, I'm thinking that since it was colder than usual and my car had been idle all day, was the root cause considering that I have the tires which came stock; Scorpion Verde All Season. Those who live in much colder climates with snow, what is your feedback on this and how do you handle it? Is there something with the Edge Sport other than tires which make it not so snow worthy? I had a Subaru Legacy for 6 years prior and used to plowing through anything. My lease is up in 5 months and I would like to lease the 2019 ST. Has anyone ever leased and negotiated getting different tires put on? I also have to consider I have to worry about snow maybe 10 days out of the year. If I get strictly snow tires, then they will wear fast in normal driving. Then again, I'm leasing so only need tires to last me 3 yrs or 36K miles. Thanks
