Tread was still good on the old tires so the stickey compounds in the tires must have gone south. Maybe I should have kept them for doing a little drifting

It could be your mind playing tricks on you. When you got the car you were probably babying it a bit and as the spring/summer hit you started to push harder. Pretty much any summer tire with a tread wear rating under 200 doesn't drive worth a damn in the cold, in my experience anyway.
