The PZero's are much better in low temps than the Bridgestone's despite both being Summer compounds.

If you have traction control turned on that would be the main reason. The GM traction control in the Camaro is actually pretty good. Turn it off though and the Camaro lays rubber for 100 ft.

As for the OP - Bridgestone's in Maine in November? Should be fun today as that low pressure front moves through and drops and inch of snow. You either won't move, won't stop or won't turn, time for some winter wheels if you are going to keep driving it.
