    Can you damage Cups in Cold Weather?

    Was wondering, if I were to leave the cups on the car the whole winter, is there any chance the rubber will loose its properties due to sufficient exposure at cold temperatures?

    I was told this would happen with Toyo's R888....

    Not that I know of. Winters aren't that harsh in UK these days. Are you taking it to the Arctic Circle or something?

      That is true with the toyo r888 they crack below 5 degrees if storing release air pressure, would have thought due to the very soft rubber compound that this could happen to the cups too but not sure.:smt102

          Well, apart from digging snow drifts off my front door, I was mostly in the pub.:beer:

          I think the op is asking about the effect of storing cups in cold conditions. Never had an issue with mine, that's all I can say.

                        I personally would wrap them in a blanket and put a hot water bottle on each one. :smokin:
