What about those cracks in the goodyear service bulletin, those are definitely cracks. I too just thought they weren't recommended for cold weather due to slippage. Didn't know that you're supposed to store them in temps above 20. My garage gets pretty cold in the winter (not climate controlled).

I love 40 degree weather; to me, that's nice out since Summers can be super hot here. I just figured I would take it slow and safe until the tires warm up. I usually drive my cars on nice sunny days regardless of temps until the first salt goes on the roads. Now I have to park it when it drops to the 40's? That happens this week. :-/

Doesn't mean I'm going to take the car back though... lol I'll just get different tires if they crack.

Plenty of tires to choose from including Continental Extreme Contact Sport, Pirelli P-Zero, Michelin Pilot Sport 4S, Pilot Supersport, Pilot Sport Cup 2, etc... Good reviews on the Continentals.
