I was out the other night at about 3am it was 28 degrees here. The car was loving the air, but it was bad windy so there was a lot of wind resistance and drag.

The Pirellis were actually OK for me in the 10-30 degree weather (on my '14 RS). They took a little bit to warm up, but as long as you dont hit any wet spots or ice you'll be ok. The ride is obviously a little bumpy. They did OK in 30 degree-35 degree light flurries, but once any accumulation happens, definitely swap them out for some AS or Winter tires.

I really love my General G-Max AS03's I'm on my second set and it's almost time for a third. I have almost no slippage out of them, and it's only when it's really wet, but that's because the rears are almost shot.

Yeah I'm just waiting for the temps during the day to be in the 40's which is looking like Saturday will be the beginning of that. I drive home for lunch during the week so I don't want to be driving when it's warm out on my winter tires if I can avoid it. Trying to hang onto the traction and performance of the summer tires as long as possible lol

I had a set of those on my previous car. Great tire for the money. They replaced a set of Conti DWS tires which were probably one of the best tires I will ever use. Got the car home from PA to MD through a snow storm which ended up dumping close to two feet of snow. We were driving on back roads in about 6-10 inches of snow.

Try those GoodYears that come with the 1LE if you want to spin. With a 100% stock car in competition mode I could get 3rd to spin easy at 50/60 degrees.
