  1. Summer Tires - Winter Time

    The clicking I heard when turning my wheel, combined with the rock hard plastic feel of my wheels told me there was a real chance of damage, even before I looked it up. I know temp impacts pressure, but I didn't realize it impacted the plasticity of the rubber on summer tires. However I figured...
  2. Summer Tires - Winter Time

    Lots learned. Think next set may be either MPSSS or their A/S version. Will need to do some autocross and drag racing this summer to help use up the existing rubber. It is a safety thing for me though, but more about saving the car from itself. If I can't stop as well, or loose traction when I...
  3. Summer Tires - Winter Time

  6. Summer Tires - Winter Time

    Let me be clear, I do not intend to drive it in snow, and while I did take it out a few Sundays ago, in the high 30s I was very careful, and actually turned on snow/wet mode until tires came up to pressure. This is my fun car and I take care of it. I have the Ford Flex EcoBoost AWD for bad...
  7. Summer Tires - Winter Time

    Living in the Northeast, I expect bad Winters, but this year has been especially brutal. Now I know you shouldn't drive in the cold with Summer tires, but I didn't realize how bad it could be for the tires. It's 11F now, and while the car warms right up for my Sunday drive, not so the tires. I...
