I'd be interested to see some other independent studies. Their control "High Performance" tire is a Pilot Sport, and the difference between the Pilot Sport and the Pilot Sport All Season looks to be a little more then just siping. Personally, I would think that compound is more beneficial then tread pattern for the snow.

But, thats not to say the siping wouldn't be better then none at all. I dunno what to say in this case.
