This is the first time I have ever had a set of real summer tires. With that said, I don’t drive my goat in the winter but I had to tonight (wife was away). All I can say is holy shit…those tires are down right scary when it’s cold outside. I might as well have been driving on ice because any throttle in the slightest made the car kick out.
I had to *****-foot the car around town and keep the RPM’s low just to get by.
Needless to say, I won’t be driving it when it’s that cold outside again!

According to BFG, these tires are not meant to be driven at near freezing temps, 24 is less than freezing and they were hard as a rock…

Uh, I'm running 40 psi in the rear with my T/A KDW-2's and I was driving around last night in a 20 degree rainstorm without even flinching.

Still have my 18s + BFG's on in this lovely Chicago weather. Drive it daily too. Yes, it sucks...but you have to know how to handle em. Pretty much treat the road like its wet even when it isnt.

20° and raining? Don't you mean snowing?

I spin my stock tires all the way to the 2-3 shift @ 65ish mph in this weather...
