For Luke... Summer Tires in Cold Weather...

I have an AMG model with Michelin Pilot Sport tires...

Here is the question:

Is there any harm in using this car in cold weather with these tires on it? I am not talking about snow or rain, just a sunny day with clear roads where the outside teperature would be below freezing. I would assume it's OK as long as the tire pressure is correct for the ambient air temperature.

Thanks and Regards,

HEO

depends on the weather
you also have to adjust your driving to the lower amount of grip the tires will have but, they will do fine

Luke,

Thanks for the reply... I thought I would be OK.

I really don't push it all that hard anyway... at least not in the winter.

Regards,

HEO
