Because summer compound tires firm up in cold weather. In warm weather they are in their operating range.

Hell, I admit i was just under the car convinced the rack or other steering components broke or are failing. I just upgraded from 18 inch wheels with Michelin Pilot Sports to the 19 inch Rays with Bridgestone Potenza tires and maybe 30% tread left on them. OMG it was like freaking me out and to top this off the TPMS light came on and for 2 days after I installed them. I had it reset at Discount Tires, (FOR FREE), and the TPMS light is remaining off. Hell Yes! I must admit here in SLC, Utah, currently 27° outside I do not like Potenza tires compared to the Michelins!!!
Anyway, I thank you all for your comments and discussion as it helped me stress down so now I can go back to sleep. Ha.
