Yeah, the PS2s aren't good in the cold, though I will say it makes sliding the rear out very easy (wife not a fan).

I'm trying to figure it out - when were PS2s phased out? regardless, they are old!

They should have a date code on them. Four digits - first two are the week, second two are the year, so 0208 would be from January 2008 for example.

I haven't seen the M3 in like 3 months - guess I should head over this weekend to check it out and will look at the tires while I'm there.

New tires go on today, and then we can discuss it again in another 10 years.
