I'm using michelin pilot sports (not ps2's) and I'm running the factory recommended tire pressure. The temperature here has dropped about 40 degrees and now I'm slipping all over the place, ha, it's kinda sketchy. Anyone else experience this? Is there anything I can do like change the tire pressures or anything to get more grip? I'm hesitant when hitting turns and accelerating cause I keep thinking I'm gonna lose it even though I probably won't. Traction control always straigtens everything out but it's kind of annoying... Any advice? Thanks

 

Get a good set of snow chains. I just slapped on a set. They work great. No more slipping

 

Below 7°C (44.5°F), normal tires (aka summer tires) don't do a good job anymore, and should be replaced by winter tires.

Yea, it gets in the 40's here at night. These tires are all weather tires though so I figured they'd do okay...

 

The rubber of normal tires just gets too hard at low temperatures. Even if there's no snow on the road, snow-/winter-tires are highly recommended under those conditions.

It isn't too cold yet here in Switzerland, but I'll probably switch to the Pirelli SnowSport in a few weeks...
