I have the all season Michelin A/S Plus tires. I tried driving in the 2" of snow that was in my neighborhood. Traction my a**... I started driving and was fish tailing ... Guess it doesn't matter what tires you have, rear wheel drive sucks in snow. Would winter tires help?

Nothing beats four wheel drive and snow tires!

Though, I was brought up in Chicago and still remember all the VW,s with the weight in the back going by me in the snow. Of course, nothing but cleats/studs work on ice and sometimes they don't either.

Conti. Sport Contact II good wear, great in rain, and good grip for the exit/entrance ramps. However, I need all weather since the temperature I drive in fluctuates from 3C to 35C
