VV,
Where are you getting your Vredesteins? I am looking into the Wintrac 4 for the winter.

ive never had a problem running summer tires on 20s in the winter around here. i can say from experience that the tires handle extremely well in wet conditions but havent tested them in snow.

There is NO was in hell I am running mine in the winter. These look to be scary in the snow. I LOVE the summer grip. I will be picking up a set of winter wheels for the cold months. I also live in VA and we do get a little snow.

I have been on Goodyear Eagle F1 GSD's in the snow....never again, not worth hurting someone else. It's not the going, it's the stopping and turning that is the problem. Yes I do know how to drive in the snow, grew up in NY and have many seasons on the snow.

This X5 will get in the snow, but not with the Vredestein's
