Coldest temp for 15+ nismo tires?
I can't find any info about the tires online. Does anyone know the coldest temp I can drive with them in? It's only 39 and I don't want to end up in a ditch.

dose are summer tires right? 65-70F is like the coldest they can perform well. anything lower ull want to keep the vdc on and drive gently. it only takes a split second to initiate da fall into a ditch.
if u plan on driving on colder dry days, check out da continental DWS06. they actually perform quite well in cold temps. i run dem all yr on my GTI. and my GTI is a faking rocket. |

Precipitation is your enemy. Temps are just the annoying kid from next door.

Max summer tires 40* & up.....not even suppose to be exposed to freezing temp's,as this will cause premature cracking between tread...not good.

No BS,,,people still do it...some are better than others in the cold...Read & understanding of tire structure & compounds.
Lots of study & research has been already done on this...just ask google...or better yet. A "Senior"
