The Cadillac came with Michelin Primacy Tour A/S ZP tires. As the ZP hints, these are run-flat tires, so a nail puncture lets you continue to drive (at a reduced speed) until you get to a tire store. What surprised me is how inexpensive these are on TireRack: $291.45 per tire. These are all-weather tires. I may not need snow tires now that I live below 3000 feet elevation. I am pleased to see that run-flat snow/ice tires are available for it. The Pirelli Winter Sottozero 3 Run Flats are $414.13 a tire, so I will need some serious snow to buy them. The good news is that they are also V-speed rated. I doubt the Cadillac will ever seen 149 mph, so that's just margin of safety.
