Making fun of someone for driving on summer tires must make me jealous of his car. . . the thought process behind some people -_-

It would depend on the weather. Summer tires actually do better in wet and dry than a lot of all season tires or mud/snow tires. On the flip side all season do better with snow/mud than summer and mud/snow do the best.
Summer really means 3 season tires in most cases.

Well, this was when it was close to zero and there was snow all over the roads. I know when I plan on getting summer tires I will be using them spring thru fall. I could probably use them in the winter no problems, but if it snows I might be screwed. I remember in my all seasons they got really slippery when it snowed about 2 inches. Tons of fun, except when the brakes locked!

You can always sipe them to get a lot more traction on ice/snow, but yeah, there's a limit to the treat style and compound. ABS and traction control make life miserable too.

Well it is summer tires while it is snowing, not always the best idea.

I go stuck in like 3 inches of snow with TC on. I turned off and everything was good. Plus it makes controlling drifts easier, which happens a lot in the snow, whether you want to or not.

Snow? lol!
Anyway, we do get some snow here, but it is in trace amounts. Most is maybe 10" every decade or so, but when that happens, nobody is moving anywhere.
