Nope, I'd be a bit of a hypocrite if I lectured you about that and had done it myself wouldnt ya say? I have been out in a blizzard in a twin turbo 350z on Pilot Sport 2's though. But I only had to go a couple hundred feet to a garage door and did a bunch of donuts on the way.

yeh, but i'm "allowing" my mother to drive my rental honda civic with a massive 115hp. My father then drives her mercedes, and I drive my fathers tahoe. It all works My mom treats the merc like garbage so I dont feel at all bad about her having to drive the econobox.

Well PS2/S03's are not as aggressive and I dont like being out on them in under 40-45 degree weather. You can notice a drastic drop off in grip. As long as it is perfectly dry, you can go out in them at like 40-45, but expect it to still feel slippery.

Ha, good deal. I still steal my parents cars all the time too - gotta have variety in what you drive.
