Heatcycling REALLY kills them! The stock tires are like teflon, never wears out and nothing stick to them!
I've done trackdays, long high speed drives (150-220kph for hours), normal commute and everyday driving for a year and 30.000km now, and these tires soldier on. They are nearing the end of their useful life finally, and lately they have REALLY gone downhill. Even before the wearindicators are showing. When they were newer I didn't notice any excessive loss of grip due to temperature. All summer tires are less grippy near freezing.
