my buddy had some snow tires put on his steelies and he had to drive up to Steven's Pass from Seattle (1.5 hr drive up a windy ass road) with snow everywhere. He did this 4 times a week for 4 years.
He said his integra rocked in the snow with snow tires.
Same thing when we put em on my friends 88 prelude SI, he used to slide everywhere in the snow and with the snow tires, it drastically changed the ride. Instead of having zero traction, it was more like driving in the rain on normal tires which isnt that bad.
