Summer Tires

[Mach1E]

If you don't drive like an a$$hole, you don't need winter tires for cold weather. Snow is probably a different story, but AWD def helps. I was on the fence about my GTPE that I bought in December. I've read all the tire threads on this forum and seen all the fear mongering, but haven't had a single problem with my Pirellis on our teens and 20s degree mornings. My car is garage kept, so the tires stay warm at night, but sits outside at work so the tires are cold for my evening commute. I also went through a full cold winter with Conti ECS summers on my BMW, no issues through the life of the tires. Back in college, we drove our Mustangs all the time in winter and snow and whatever, no problems except for lack of traction. Just drive smart.

That being said, if I lived in a place that had very cold winters or a decent amount of snow, I'd buy winter wheels/tires. I will def replace my current summer tires with all-seasons on the Mach-E just like I did my 335i. There was just no reason to do it right off the bat (for me).

It’s not about driving like an a-hole.

It’s about when another a-hole cuts you off and you have to avoid them or slam on the brakes.

It’s not fear mongering, it’s been tested.

See the above post about wearing a seatbelt. It’s fine until it’s not.
