Max in the winter
Anyone that doubted the max in the snow, they must have horrible tires, I was just out in 12"+ snow on a lake the other day, out doing every car (Except the 4wd trucks out there) and I never once got stuck. Funny to see peoples reactions seeing this Red 4-door family car eating through the heavy snow, and the other cars stuck out there. All you need is good tires, and I think mine are just all-season tires, but they still do great.

Nokian's rock
Agreed. I've driven through Albany and most of NYC with my Nokian WRs. Never got stuck once in multiple inches of snow. The tires just dig in and ask for more.
The siping and tread pattern on these work really well in slush, wet and even packed snow. The soft compound works better on ice than normal all-seaons as well, although for true ice traction you need the Hakkas with the rubber studding technology or metal/carbide studs.

Heh, I was in Schenectady the weekend of Jan 17th. for welding class. That was it. I'll probably go up again for more classes. I don't live upstate though, I'm in Queens.
