I live in miami where its hot and humid 99% of the year. I have bridgestone potenza re040. I plan on taking a two week road trip up to boston during december/january, when it gets pretty cold up there. Will my tires give me any problems? I have some experience driving in snow, but during this trip it will be mostly highways and city driving so the snow buildup will be minimal (unless some crazy storm hits us, which in that case, i'll be stuck indoors somwhere, but anyways). are my tires ok for my trip? i really dont want to spend any money on winter tires i will only use for two weeks. any suggestions? :thumbup:

The bridgestone potenza re040 is a summer-only tire. Don't drive with them in < 40 deg F weather if you value you life! Just rent an SUV with all-seasons.
