Just FYI, there are all season and all weather tires. All weather is geared towards more snowy, slushy, rainy areas...They are ALL SEASON.
Texas too. We hardly get anything down here winter-ishy....except for the freak week that happened this past winter.Move to CA, hate/don't understand anything that goes on but can run a 200tw tire year round....... priceless.
A temp of 45 is the lowest temp that I will drive in. I had the same problem with another car (BRZ) with MPPSwhat’s the lowest temp that’s ok to drive the mpss that come with the car that you’ve driven in?
If not what winter tires have you guys used?
Below 7C summer tires not optimal. The real issue is grip and braking action. It will increase the distance for stopping. Might be the difference between a crash, ruining your car and or hurting yourself and others. Its really simple. If you are in winter / cold conditions get winter tires. All seasons are not the answer either. Your car and your moneywhat’s the lowest temp that’s ok to drive the mpss that come with the car that you’ve driven in?

Betting no winter tires on any of those. Certainly on ice they are not perfect either. Nothing works great on ice!No Supra winter driving for me. That’s what I have a Tacoma and 4runner for.
It would end up in the ditch like these people.

Maybe they expected people to be driving the car more often in the summer but made sure your bum will not freeze should you drive it out on cooler seasonsI always find it strange that Toyota made the decision to sell this car with summer tires and heated seats, not cooled. A head scratcher, for sure.
I have a set of winters ready to go on when the temps start to dip. Saves me from putting extra miles on the (much more expensive) summer tires.
Preparing to move to Germany next year, and the Supra will become my daily as my Lifted GMC is not welcome in that country either (reason I am searching for winter tires now, the ones with the little mountain peak logo on them since that is the new upcoming law…. M+S are grandfathered for a bit, but since doing summer/winter changeouts, planning on these lasting for some time)…… thing about the US….. freedom means the freedom to do dumb stuff too….. play stupid games, win stupid prizes. But, when a guest in Germany courtesy of the US military, I will respect and follow their rules.Below 7C summer tires not optimal. The real issue is grip and braking action.

In Germany your insurance coverage can be denied if you are not on the correct equipment for the conditions. Thats a big DUH would you not agree. Seems in the USA winter tires are not mandated for areas that have winter. Idiotic.
