I trade driving slow (still usually at city speed limits) on cold mornings to be able to drive faster (than possible on winter tyres) in the warmer afternoons.
No good in snow though.

PSS2 are useless in snow. I drive mine in New Hampshire until it starts snowing and then I put the snow wheels on, usually in December. We often have freezing or even colder temps before the snow starts. It was 36F last night and it is only mid-September.
Thank you both for your replies! Sounds like the tires will be just fine for the short time it gets cold down here.
