You've just summed up why you don't detect any difference: you don't push anywhere near the limit in normal driving - and there's nothing wrong with that.
So, although you don't notice any difference in your normal driving that doesn't prove that a difference isn't there: you just don't drive hard enough to notice it.
Well I posed the question: Are you all driving on the edge? It strikes me as absurd that people can blissfully say they can feel a difference when they are driving in the wet at a certain temperature. They must be pushing it, when maybe the roads would be safer for all of us if they didn't .
I am always more than comfortable driving on good summer tyres in the rain at 7 degrees or lower.
I will be using winter tyres this winter, but that will be to cope with snow and ice, not what I would term "normal" driving conditions which I will handle with plain old common sense defensive and safe driving.
It's kept me accident free for more than 45 years (touch wood!)...
