Hey SeaNile,
Just outside of Philly here as well (NJ). I also have a non-psm Boxter with Pilot Sports. I previously had the same tires on my NSX and went through the winter with them. The only thing I worried about was if one side of the NSX would hit snow, as the rear tires had toe in (I think thats what it is called). If the right side hit snow or ice, the tail would slide to the right, as the left rear tire would want to push that way. It was the opposite with the left side! As you plan on doing, I did not drive in snow if I could avoid it, and I was fine. I plan on doing the same with the Boxster. Good luck!
