The conversation was centered around SUMMER TIRES, and I was telling when I felt the time/temp was best for removing them from service, here in MICHIGAN.
In case you are interested:
45 degree Fahrenheit = 7.2222222 degree Celsius
45 degree Celsius = 113 degree Fahrenheit

I recommend the 225/45x17" Azenis also. Actually it's more like 235 or 245 wide since Falken makes their tires a bit wider. Grip with full tread to about 4mm of tread can handle any downpours like my Azenis did. I'm down to bald tires and now it's scary 
But what do you expect of any bald tires.
I know alot of people are recommending the ES100s. I might have ot get myself a set. Also the Toyo T1-S is another good grippy tire, but a bit expensive to me.
