I would not use summer tires in cold weather. As you said they do get hard at low temperatures and they do not grip well, even in the dry. I always get a second set of wheels with snow tires for cars...

Thanks everyone for the suggestions. TireRack suggested the tread depth should be within 2/32" of the other tires, and mentioned that they can shave them. So, I will measure the depth.

One damaged tire - replace 1 or 2 or 4?

I recently purchased a set of four wheels and tires from TireRack. I just hit a large rock on a city street and it caused a sidewall bulge in the right rear tire, ruining it. I still have to check...

Another update...

Taking off the rubber strips on the rear fenders has certainly reduced the rubbing. I put strips of masking tape on the edges of the fenders to try to see where and how much it is rubbing, but it's...

Update...

They rub!

I bought Dunlop SP Sport Maxx TT 235/40-18, on 18x8 ET 48 wheels, and as I said, pink springs and Bilsteins. The tires rub easily in the back on slight dips in the road or cornering,...
