Well, figured I'd get some actual pics posted up before this thread is deemed worthless, etc etc. So I went and took some quick pics of them, and sorry if some of them are blurry a bit...I couldn't be bothered setting up the camera properly...just pointed and shot. Anyways, you can see the tires half decent in most of them...

As you can see, they look a bit sportier than conventional winter tires, and after driving the car some more, I think they perform different too. The car feels kinda sloppy at steering at first after it's been sitting overnight, but after I put some heat into the tires, the steering response and grip got better and better. This is pretty awesome to me, and I like that fact that even without driving in any rain or snow yet with these tires, they seem like I am getting my money's worth. I will have to give a long-term update after some more mileage and some snow/winter driving...but until then, so far so good...
