I drive my D year round and it does get below freezing here in New Jersey, 
but I don't drive it on snow or ice. No matter how careful you are, the guy 
behind you might not be. I'm really not too wild about driving it in the 
rain for the same reason, though I personally have only skidded once- rainy 
pavement, original tires. Before I got Yokos. Anyway, snow/ice presents 
another problem: salt. I had to leave my D parked for weeks on end last 
winter. =-( Even the most careful driver can't keep salt off a car driven 
on a recently salted road. Just my 2 cents.
