[QUOTE="phroenips, post: 1216337, member: 19942"] To be clear, the summer and winter tires are for the cars; I'm not aware of any winter specific motorcycle tires. The point I was trying to make is that on (car) winter tires, they're made with different rubber compounds that perform better not just in snow and ice, but even in dry conditions at sub-40 degree temperatures. I'm guessing the typical "sport-touring" tire that most of us use are probably closer to the "summer tire" end of that rubber compound spectrum...and as such, performance at colder temperatures is far less than ideal.
