Curiosity gang:
Do you honestly think that any kind of use of Stewie on a 32 degree ('r less) road surface that's constantly suckin' any little bit of friction-heat that the tires may gain in use (Apologies for the run-on)
But, do you really think that tires exposed to those kind of elements are going to "warm" to normal (Read: 55 degrees n' up) operating temperatures?
When the temps drop to even near freezin', as I see it you've 3 choices:
1) Drivin' hamstrung, as if your tires aren't designed for the conditions you're venturin' forth in,
2) Puttin' on winter rubber n' jus' drivin' within their extended limits,
3) Viewin' your favorite twisties, through the settlin' dust, from the cornfield on the outside'a the turn you jus' exited from . . butt first.
Be well.
