What are you running?

Thankfully I went with WinterSport M3s which have decent grip in the 60-70 degree weather we've been having. I don't push the car in those temps, but when it's in the 50s or lower I can push like hell through any corner and they grip pretty well and have a very predictable breaking point. I would imagine Blizzaks or similar would absolutely suck in this weather.

The car will be on Pilot Super Sports tomorrow, though. Time to get back to some real fun.
