I got mine out Saturday to go to a cruise-in. Temps were in the 35 degree range. The Pirellis were a little bouncy for the first block or so but they seemed to warm up after that. I wouldn't trust them if it was much colder and I definitely wouldn't trust them if it was cold and wet at the same time.

Drago, I don't mind the cold weather here - can deal with just about anything - it's my car that I hate it for! Just the thought of snow tires on a Camaro and what they would kick up on the paint makes me cringe. Not to mention salt in the body crevices. Yikes!!

So as not to hijack - I've had ContiTouring Contacts and ContiSport Contacts in 2 new Mercedes, and both sets of tires were awesome. Though the ContiSport Contacts only lasted about 25k with very careful use - not one burnout or full throttle start. :(
