I, too, am getting close to the point where I need new rubber.

A quote from Tire Rack regarding the Goodyear Eagles:
"Like all summer tires, it is not intended to be driven in near-freezing temperatures, through snow or on ice."
They say basically the same thing about the PS2s.

While I don't drive my Box in the snow (or even if there's visible road salt still on the road, after the snow's gone), I do still drive to some extent year-round.

What are the consequence of driving such tires when it's cold? Is it dangerous? If so, is that still true even if you're not "pushing" your car anywhere towards its limits, traction-wise? Is it detrimental to the tires? Just curious.
