Default Axxis Ultimates in the snow?

Does anyone have experience with the Axxis pads during Winter?

Im curious how well they perform in snow and cold temps - under 25 F ?

I'd worry about tires before I worried about my pads.

I used to run Porterfield R4 race pads year round (street/track).

Im just curious if these (front) pads can handle the really cold temps or not...

I don't have an R, but i do have ultimates up front and blizzaks as well. Last winter was not a problem at all with plenty of snow and cold weather in upstate NY. They're a little squeaky sometimes but they stop just fine.

I just ordered some axxis ultimates today. They're supposed to be very good in cold weather as these break pads of that level go.
