P Zeros winter report

[Medic]

Second full winter on my 21s PZeros in the North East.
PUP is my daily driver and has gone through two winters of -5deg F temperatures, thick snow pack and icey conditions without any cracking or traction problems. Even found the traction through thick mud was absolutely fine.
No problems to report with summer tires or traction through any of this.

Hard to believe, but OK. I still wouldn't do it or recommend it and hope most people don't drive around in the winter on summer tires.

No, absolutely no. The P-Zero summer tires are horrendous in the snow and ice just like all Summer only tires! You will slide and have no traction. I have my wife's car to drive if I need it when it snows, but I took the Y out in the lightest of snow and just pulling out of the driveway with a slight decline I slid as I applied the brakes (going less then 2-3 mph no less). There is 0 traction in any snow, let alone ice. Do everyone a favor, if you drive where it snows a lot, please get at least all-season tires. It is dangerous to be on Summer Only tires in the winter.

Panic stopping for a deer/pedestrian/vehicle on a snowy road would result in your car sliding like a hockey puck. Your vehicle is not good in the snow, have you ever had snow tires?
