I switched to my snow tires a month ago, and since then, there aren't any snow.

I've been driving on my snow tires for about 3k miles already. wondering if that's bad for the snow tires on dry roads.

 

Snow tires are fine as long as it is relatively cold. Of course driving slow on soft snowy roads minimizes tire wear. But really how often and long do you want to do that? Snow tires are for their cold weather performance and the occasional snowy road. The main roads and parking lots around my house never stay snowy. They scrape and salt the pi$$ out of them.

 

samehere, there hasn't been much snow here in New England although it's snowing now but really haven't seen much.

i have a strong feeling it's going to start heavy snowing late january to febuary. I cruise highway around 75mph in cold weather and I don't keep it slow locally ofcourse I don't speed but I'm sure it's not great on preserving the snow tires. Does your feel uncomfortable on snow tires? I feel it's a lot more smoother on the summers.

when it has snowed here.. maybe 3-4 times so far, the snow tires been doing there job tho.

 

I'm soo glad that we've been having a mild winter thus far this year.

I too fear that we are in store for trouble though as the hell months are approaching(Late January to Mid March). I, for one, am sick of dealing with all the bad things that are part of living in New England all year round(Cold, Snow/Ice, lack of sun and constant overcast weather, salty roads, potholes, angry-winter drivers).

 

Not bad as long as it's cold out.

I'm with 'ya there. let's hope we don't have those hell months you mentioned.
It's too hard on the training.
