Ice is one thing, snow, slushy snow, packed snow is another thing.
Are we only talking about ice here?

Ice is for sure the most difficult and probably a problem even for dedicated winter tires without studs.
I would say the next worst is when packed snow is reduced to a thick slush. I find that it wont squish out from under the tires and acts like grease. That's always been the biggest issue for me here in Wisconsin even with really good tires.
On packed snow you can expect relievable traction response and a fairly constant drive. I found even my 22" Coopers work well on the packed snow.
The Greasy thick slush is terrible! The only thing I ever found that worked well on that was a narrower aggressive tire. My last ride had Goodyear Duratrac tires in 265/75-16 and the grease would squish out from under them and they would fling the rest.
Easy to power right out of thatThe slushy stuff is what we just went through after a combination of 3-4 freezing rain layers and 10” of total snow in between. Then as it started turning to slush it was a trap for people pulling off the main roads that got plowed onto side streets that didn’t. People were making bad decisions and driving straight into a foot or more of packed ice/ snow that had turned into slush. I saw this kid in this Maserati drive straight into slush that was halfway up his hood and come to a complete slushed-in stop. It was funny as hell. I mean he was buried.View attachment 271173View attachment 271174

GTK though.
Needs to straighten the front wheels first though.... lolEasy to power right out of that
I know huh. Same day there was a guy driving down my street in a Ford F-150 with chains on the back, with his wheels completely turned sideways powering ahead and pushing slush and suddenly his truck swerved to the side, up into someone’s yard. The idiot was driving down a road he couldn’t get through, trees were down ahead and you could clearly see them. It took him a half hour to turn around. He comes back with his front wheels turned just like before, every once in awhile he would shoot to one side of the street, then turn them the other way too far and after awhile it would catch and go the other way. It was funny as shit. Dude had obviously never seen snow and ice.Needs to straighten the front wheels first though.... lol

What did you do to the guy and his cigarette? Hooefully you used his eye as an ashtray.Think i stopped some dudes Maserati from being keyed today.
Some dude was headed towards it dressed like a he is a construction worker (clearly not his car), with a serious look on his face.
Read to me like "oh I'm going to do this thing".
Then i pull up, looks over at me and turns around like he just got caught headed towards the cookie jar.
I hate people like that,
Just because he can't afford a car like that he wants to damage it to make himself feel better.
Once i had some dude in a big truck put his cigarette out on my seats in the vette, his truck was worth way more than my vette but he still had to be a douche.
Oh well, i saved someone's car today by just being there.![]()

Hey! That’s not very nice.

I've never floored mine from a stop, but I have while already moving about 25-30mph and it kicks down and chirped all 4 tires
