Bunch of babies.. I did a winter with the original Eagle F1s, and then 3 winters with the BFG KDW tires, and never got stuck once. Yeah, their grip isn't great, but if you know how to drive in the snow smart (which I learned how to do in Buffalo), then you can get by. I had to do a 60 mile trip the day after a big snowfall last year, and the biggest hurdle was getting out of my development. Once out, it was clear (but slow) sailing.
I'd say if you live in a climate where you get quite a bit of snow, go with a snow tire. But if you live someplace where you may only get 2-4 snowfalls a year, save your money and take it slow if you have to go out.
Well dumb-ass...me and my 3 children want to thank you for being such a safety hazzard on snow covered roads. The difference between Z/W rated performance radials and even All seasons like I have are night and day. Hopefully we'll meet someday in an emergency situation, and rather than avoiding the situation like you should be able to...you can tear into us becuase you're too hard-ass to put on the proper tire for the environment....moron.
Nest time its raining at Sachsen Ring, I'll tell Shumacher "You big baby...you'll go out on those slicks and like it!"
