Default Re: Colder Weather and Snow Tires

AWD or 4WD will help you get going and handle better in snow, but they won't help you stop any quicker.

And as far as "Over selling"; when you've got 4 snow tires on you're not wearing any of the tread on your other set. You won't be buying tires more often. You've just got two sets to wear out instead of one.

Obviously a careful driving style will help -- good luck.
