No worries on a 3 year old tire
“Gibraltar” 2016 white deluxe has been sold.
Tire is on. Ran 60 miles on it. Smooth, like having an air shock on back. Road snakes are dead. Got 31 PSI in it.
Next up, front darkside.
I have had my Dunlop for about 2 years and run 32#....great tire! I will be ordering another one around December to have one in stock!

So, a guy at work tells me that snow tires use different compounds that are not good in hot weather. He believes the mileage won't last as long and believes the tire will get excessively tacky on hot pavement.
Is he talking out his ass or is their a thread of truth to what he says?

One only has to apply a Litmus Test to unfounded claims about winter tires! People routinely travel from the likes of Cold/Snowy Canada to all portions of Florida where you can fry a egg on macadam roads, on most sunny, hot days. They sure as hell don't replace all tires prior to their journeys. Studded tires would be the exception and are banned for use by April in most Northern States. I'm confident in believing a tire having good traction on ice/snow would deliver the same traction on dry or rain soaked roads with the exception of "standing water" which could induce "hydroplaning". Winter/Summer tires would have different compounds enhancing their "wear characteristics" but still be fully capable of delivering reasonable performance and longevity! I'm sure that there can be disagreement and lengthily debate on this subject. I would rather trust those who have a "first hand experience" with Dark Siding than those "Side Line Quarter Back" not having a single mile of actual CT use.
