I spoke to a few folks and you seem to have nailed it. The cold weather snap
may have something to do with the tires not grabbing the way they did in
July.
Anyway, all is good.
Thanks

Oops, never figured in the temperature, don`t know where you are. Mine now has
the winter tires on it which don`t grip as well with 1" less tread width. They
don`t squeal much either but they do run better in the rain which is their
primary use.
