The two I am looking at are the Michelin Pilot Super Sport in a summer performance tire that specs out good in the rain. I have heard they are very slick when the temps go below 50 degrees. Anyone comment on this? If they get too slick in the cold then I will look at the Continental ExtremeContact DWS 06 in the High performance all season category as a better driver in the cold.
Any feedback or thoughts would be appreciated.
Listen to these guys.

I just picked up the Extreme DW's and they are brilliant in the rain. Hell, they're brilliant in standing water and they're boatloads of fun in the dry.

2 other redeeming factors... They are A) Inexpensive and B) Quiet.
