I’d like to know if one should reduce their tire pressure during the winter.

I’ve heard yes. I am not a mechanic, nor mechanically inclined for those types of Dear Red questions.

No. But be sure to put some winter air in them.

Seriously....No.

Doesn’t help traction and hurts when cornering, especially on ice.....

Cold weather will reduce the pressure for you.

Not that you should want them that way. Check and maintain proper pressure per the tire manufacture’s recommendations.
