Living in NE, there are many days that start or end pretty cold this time of year. I know the owners manual says not to drive on stock tires under 40F degrees, how legit is this number? I'm not worried about traction because I know to take it easy at lower temps. What I am worried about is damaging the tires IE cracking and peeling. Any thoughts on what's a truly unsafe temp to drive them at. Also, I am storing my car in a un-heated garage for the winter, is there anything special I need to do for the tires if I don't move the car in the extreme temps? Once the snow flies I'll put fuel stabilizer in and a battery tender on. But this time of year, there is no snow and some days are still warm enough to have some driving fun.
