Michelin Pilot Sport PS2

I am thinking of getting these for my car but winter is coming up and I'm not sure if they'll be good in the winter. Does anyone have any experience with this? I live in Atlanta, so it doesn't get extremely cold but fairly cold.

As long as you don't try to drive on ice and snow, you will be fine.

As long a you understand the the friction coefficient drops with temperature below 50F on ultra pergormance tires and compensate correctly for lose of friction.

Wet and 35-45F can be nasty braking on any summer tire.

Below 50 temps they won't do much, even on just wet pavement.Snow/ice you can leave them on the bench. Designed as a summer only tire for specific reasons.
