Running out winter tires in summer

[Kira]

Forgive me for not knowing Game of Thrones (even though it has been incorporated into Jeopardy questions).
...but how did userfriendly know to Google "Gloucester Fisherman"?

Game of Thrones...John Wick...$80,000 pickup trucks....all too hep for me.

My winter tires are too worn out for winter use so I decided to run them this summer. Contrary to the thought they would “ chunk out” they are wearing out normally. I guess the thought that they are too soft for summer is countered by the thought that old winter tires “ harden up”. They are down to 4/32 and will get replaced this fall. Enjoy.

They would wear rapidly if they were actually snow tires. All season tires are fine in the summer.

Usually I wouldn't have more than one set of tires for a car, winter/summer. But this one came with the extra set of winters on rims, so may as well keep on with it. Besides, it's my daughters car and I would rather give her all the help I can for winter driving. If only my state allowed studded tires, I would definitely have those on there.
