I have colder winters than you do here in Chicago. Do what I did: summer time I went with 2 liters of total auto supra coolant + 2 bottles of water wetter. Then a few weeks ago, I drained 2 liters of that solution, and just topped it off with 2 more liters of coolant.

Water temps are just fine for me, and ever since I went with diluted coolant + water wetter, have never been a problem. In October, while at the track in 40F weather, I hit 280F oil temps trying to chase down an E90 M3. At the same time, my water temp was at 88C!!! Go figure
