Who Has Put Their Winter Tires On?
 

It's so freagin' warm I have not even switched out my Summer tires for my Winter tires. However I look at weatherchannel.com every couple of days just to make sure I don't get screwed.

Who else has left their Summer tires on?

I do.

I have snow tires on.

Put my stock wheels back on with all season tires about a month ago. Who would have thunk it was gonna be so warm still. Oh well, my car is daily driven so if it does snow atleast I'll be ready.

all season pzero nero m+s

proxies ftw!

I have my winter tires on. I put them on about a month ago after I got back from Vermont, they had snow on the ground, and I was planning to go back. Most of the mountains have since closed or just aren't worth going to so now I'm just stuck. I don't want to take them off and have it snow a week later. Worst winter ever!

just because its not snowing doesnt mean that summer tires are safe. even with the higher temps this winter the average temp is still too cold for a summer tire to perform safely. i would definitely not recommend running a summer tire through the winter if you like keeping your car in one piece.
snow tires, however, are seeming to be unnecessary as well :(. this is performance all-season country.

I have all season's on..

I haven't my 15s are on my friends car

I still have my summer tires on because once I have my winter tires on I am super lazy and I don't switch back to summer till like august lol

< all seasons

<< very lazy

Sorry, but this is just a bit alarmist. I was driving around on my KDW's when it was in the 30's and they performed completely normally and safely. Maybe it's too cold for them to perform at their absolute best, but they haven't been unsafe in my experience. Unless it's snows, then you're completely f-ed.

Besides snow tires are way less safe in anything but snow and ice. Went to make panic stop the other day and nearly ran into what I was stopping for. My KDW's, even in the freezing cold, gripped way better.

On a side note though, it's nice being on smaller rims, my car rides like a normal car again. :p

I am putting my snow tires on tomorrow, looks like its gonna get cold soon!

i had them on for a week..then went back to summer

Yea my S2000 has never seen anything but summer tires and they work fine even in the winter, it's just when it snows that it has some problems

Suckas!

with the great street in my neighborhood and the rate ive been blowing out tires im gonna rock all season tires till next winter

I just see a lot of people, here and otherwise, who think snow tires are for snow only, and as long as there's no snow on the ground then you're fine on summer tires. this is FALSE.
Summer tires are made to be soft and grippy in warmer temperatures, but as temperatures drop the compound hardens up and its more like you're driving on bricks. just want to make that clear for the people who didnt know that because they can be very unsafe.
I would guess that at 60 degrees your average summer tire will be fine, at 50 degrees it would be ok, at 40 degrees it would be less than ideal, at 30 degrees and below it is clearly unsafe. Grip levels will plummet as temperatures drop.
Anything but the most hardcore specialty snow tires are designed to grip reasonably well on dry, wet, and snowy/icy conditions in cold temperatures (<50 degrees or so?). I have Dunlop Wintersport M3s and they grip at least as well as my stock all seasons did in the dry since they are a 'high performance' (i.e. mild) snow tire.

I still have my summer tires on.. the winter tires stay on our civic :)
