Do you have summer tires?
The colder Temps with summer tires hardens the tread compound and they are terrible. Using summer only tires on Temps under 32° can make you feel like you are driving on ice when there is none.

I have cross drilled rotors (not slotted due to the glazing they make) and ceramic pads, with 275 Gmax and 235 kuhmo. Stock height, except rear is 3/4 higher with the 275/35 over the stock 255.
I got these for rain and they are great handling.

A few weeks ago heading home at night with a wet road a deer ran in front of me and I slammed the brakes and damn near threw myself into the windshield, was very impressed how well it stopped. Barely missed the deer.
A insurance adjuster told me awhile back that 75% of auto accidents involve the front of the vechicle.
