Well, that'll keep the air warmer.
Actually I read that a tire like the Continental Grand Prix 4 Season uses a different rubber compound then their 5000, specifically for off season and winter conditions. I know that some winter specific auto tires use a softer rubber for ice. Ive no idea if the Conti winter tires work better, I use the 4 Seasons year round as they are durable.
