will pzeros crack if driven in cold temps?
My Camaro is stored thru the winter but she's coming out early this year bc there's lots of work that needs to be done before show season starts. I'm driving her a half hour to a buddies house to install my headers on Friday. Its going to be about 10* when I leave. I know traction sucks as Ive driven it in cold weather but I plan to take it easy but worried about cracking. Thanks!

Everyone warns about it but I drive my car all year (currently 82.000 miles), including some sub zero days and have had no problems with them.

From what I've read on these forums I think they are suppose to explode once they contact ice.

No, the pzeros do not have the cracking issues like the GY F1.

Driven at 0 degrees, no cracking, the grip and ride suck though.

The P-Zeros are Summer tires, but they don't have the cracking issues you have read about.
As noted above, the cracking issue is with the Goodyear Eagle Supercar G2's used on the 1LE and ZL1. |

Driven in cold temps, no problems, other than traction issues.

Thanks so much for the replies!!! I will definitely take it easy and pretend I'm driving on ice since traction is going to suck but good to know they won't crack.
