New tires and cold weather

[Mike Qube]

I just got my new tires in. I was thinking about having them mounted today, it's still a bit cold out about 40-45. Should I not mount them until it gets warmer?

I would mount them.

Just take it easy as always on new rubber.

if youclean them down with a liquid buffer sort of thing they should be ok - mine is trichloroethylene i think.  i've wheelied in the rain on brand new tyres, so they're not always that slippery.  you could always run the pressures down a bit to get them hotter.

It's been illegal here for quite some time.
