I don't, or at least have not yet.
I keep the car garaged over winter and try to get it out every 2-3 weeks just to run it. I know guys that do change to snow tires and say it performs quite well, especially in the snow mode which really reduces throttle input.
Still some season left for RWD + summer tires
But we are getting to that time where it is a must to know temps + road conditions. ...
For Real
Afternoon drives are probably a safer bet - and possibly a few miles rolled before trying anything committed. It's like the routine race drivers follow during the first two laps after a pit stop with full rubber. My buddy got into a wild low-speed crash o...
I'll be honest, I drove at Spring Mountain's Cadillac driving school at 28 degrees
That was the temp when we started. The tire pressures were in the low 20psi range. The instructors told us to go easy a few laps to let them warm up. It was crazy and scary at the same time. With mine, I stick to above 40F degrees. It is more concerning t...
Enjoy the final summer tire hurrah frontage season 👌🏻👍🏻🏁
You probably change it to full winters for the rest of the year?

Wo th proper snow tires it can be a blast 💥
Different from high performance summer rubber but good, still 🦾🏁
I’d have a lot of fun with that Caddy.
I’m thinking the tires wouldn’t make it through the summer 😂
It is really hard. But they are pricey to replace, so that adds a little pause here and there.
I did a 3/4 doughnut in the cul-de-sac yesterday after a drive. The neighbors frown upon it, but the worst one is out of town so I let it rip
I hear you, Michael.
I try not to beat on my vehicles in the neighborhood where I live.
Who knew
We'd see 275 fronts on a 4-door sedan, even a performance one, that's amazing when you think about it. I think some high performance cars like the ZL1 may have even wider tires but we do live in the golden age of performance rubber. On a side note I have ...
And the 305s on the back are nice and fat
Tire prices sure have gone up these past few years. I go through truck tires more quickly, and they are not fun to pay for!
Beautiful car and photo!
What model? Just switched to my winter Hankook tires this week. Need to tame the 590 ponies in my Audi for the upcoming alpine weather!
CT5-V Blackwing, manual transmission
The Audi is a great 4 season machine with the right tires. People out here love them.
