We may be less than a month into winter but honestly, who the hell predicts this "coldest winter" gibberish? Fall was a lot colder than it is now.

My winter tires are feeling the pain.

I think you'll get away with a good set of all season tires. Nothing worrying up there, my FWD 1.6EL had no problems getting there and back. Was up there just this past Saturday.

I wouldn't do summers during this time around, night time has been pretty cold.

That means the compound on your summers will be hard as a puck.

dumbass people out there, just because you have winter tires does not mean you are invincible in the wet and icey conditions. The tires just give you an extra hand for situations, does not mean you can speed.
