For future reference: can I make it through a whole winter with blizzaks? Also, the first day or two I took a pretty sharp corner at about 50mph, without slippage on the stock tires. Then a week later went to take a 90 degree corner at about 40mph and had a bit of skid. I thought that was a bit weird to have 2 totally different experiences with its cornering behavior. And no I haven't done it a lot. So, it's not like they are worn out already. I have done that maybe 4 times. And I have never turned traction control off yet or pressed the vsc button. I haven't been brave enough yet. Manual learning comes first. Haha.
The stock tires are very sensitive to temperatures below about 40 degrees. Odds are it was simply colder the second time you did it. Below freezing you may as well just be driving on solid rubber hockey pucks they will harden up so bad.
Throw some good snows on it and it is a tank through the snow.
