Dallas/Ft Worth 6MT HPT option owners

Considering our mild, wet "winters", is anyone replacing/replaced their HPTs for all seasons or just leaving the RE030's on for the winter?

I just drove through our first ice/slush/rain today and it seem like I have decreased control of the car.

From Houston... mine will be in the garage during this cold snap as it is raining and it more than likely will be slush etc.... do not want to take a chance with the HPTs.

The HPTs do fine in rain. I have not experienced any problems so far in So Cal. But they are not at all suitable for driving if there is ice on the road. Fortunately we never see no ice here

Yeah, didn't have problems with them in the rain, but it's the slush I'm worried about.

Slush cant be good for the HPTs... if you are going to drive regularly in such conditions, it might be a good idea to change the tires.
