So I talked with the tire experts at tirerack.com about my concerns and they said these tires are strickly summer tires. The treads and rubber used to manufacture them is not for use at near freezing temperatures. According to them not only is the tread not good on slippery conditions the tire could fail in freezing conditions. For Michelin the recommended the LTX M/S2 instead
Did you tell Tirerack that you were planning to use these on a trailer? I suspect the conversation would have been over at that point. The advice they gave was definitely not appropriate for trailer service.
