I am visiting my parents in NC currently. I noticed two mornings in a row now that these tires absolutely ride like crap when they are cold (42 degrees F both mornings) and the traction is horrible. Tires felt like they were flat spotted for the first 2 -3 miles of driving then they are fine.

These are coming off as soon as I get back to Florida.

I have Pirrelli PZero Rosso 275/35/20 rear and 255/35/20 front on mine and they are fine. Summer driving good grip... obviously if I floor it they are going to spin but that's what is expected from a supercharged engine. Winter driving... well I wouldn't expect them to hold up the same as summer driving, but as long as you drive within the limits of the weather around you they hold up okay!

Still debating what to get though for next summer!! What is a really good grippy tire?

I never drove my stang in bad weather..but if i did..get winter tires

If u live in the north, I would get 2 sets one summer and one winter tire...i do it for all my vehicles and the difference is night and day...

they call them snow tires..but should be really called winter tires..

i recommend tire rack...good luck..its a good safe investment and will last along time as u keep rotating them

maybe buying mine early without all the discounts may bewhy I have not got all the complaints everyone has, not noises, tires ride smooth, actually I'm confused on what tires to buy in future, what's good what's bad, dunlop although IMO does not get that good of rep. seems to have the best overall reviews. guess the slight bumpty bump for first 3 mins don't bother me after that perellis are nice,

Well, last night when I left work it was 15 F and as I left the parking lot and turned onto the main highway, I got on it and you could feel the backend starting to fishtail and the TRACTION warning light came on while the tires were starting to spin (like at around 40-50 mph). The roads were dry but cold. It felt like I had 100 more hp. Maybe the engine makes more hp when the temps are colder. All I know is now with the cold here, I can get the backend to break loose alot easier than before. Don't worry, however, I don't drive it in the snow. I use my daughter's 98 Sabel for that!

You will notice as I did. just like my bikes, colder is betyter she runs, uses more gas in colder weather, thus why you are getting more power, in summer, better mileage, but does not seem as peppy, but will run better colder.
