We have had great luck with snow tires all around.

My daughter is in Ithaca NY where it snowed at least an inch or two for 21 days in a row. She has a '95 base sedan with Nokians - no worries.

My wife is driving a '96 855R with Gislaveds all around. She hates driving in poor weather - no worries.

My only problem is that I have more than 30 wheels and tires to store!

Many people drive their cars around on half-worn OE tires and wonder why they have no traction in the snow. So they buy a $30,000 SUV when all they need is $400 worth of snow tires!
