My SS came with Pirelli "Four Season" tires. They have a decent tread (not as aggressive as a winter tire). They're not bad for year-round use.

On a side note... I'm going to buy a new set of rims (I found some nice American Racing rims) and put summer tires on them while using my stock rims for winter tread. I think it's almost about time to switch...

Hmmm... How much snow you get in Indy? I had mine on for the 1st week of December and after our first snowfall of 15cm (about 5-6inches) I couldn't get out of the driveway so I bought winter tires/rims instead. And according to tirerack.com they have them listed as 'summer only'. I agree that they run pretty well in the rain. Next tires for me are going to be KDW-2's.

Not as much as you guys do. I had it out in 5"s this year and had no problems.

Hold the phone, I have an SS/SC which comes with low profile summer tires. A tad bit different from the tires on th SS 2.4L . I need to know or a site can go to, what LOW profile all weather tires will fit on my 18" stock SS/SC wheels.

Yeah. Pirelli makes an all season version of our summer only tires. Same dimensions, speed rating, and load capacity.

Stock Tires: Pirelli PZero Rosso (Max Performance Summer) 215/45WR18 93W

Pirellis All season: Pirelli PZero Nero M&S (Ultra High Performance All-Season) 215/45WR18 93W

They cost almost half as much as the stock Pirellis PZero tires too.
