Go for it!! Just remember, cold temperatures and tire traction don't mix. Have fun out there.
To many cinders on the highways up here in the mountains for me to take mine out yet.

3+ inches of snow and/or ice are the only things that keep the Z from going out. Even then I got to do what I got to do!!
Glad the Vette gets to go for a spin, have fun!!!

Have a good drive. Nothing wrong with getting the car out when the roads are clear.

I know the feeling, my daily driver had to "weather" several cold days in the garage.
Summer tires loose about 30% of their traction below 40 F. Don't even think of driving in snow with them !
