Default RE: tires for snow

Depends on what kind of snow you're driving on and how deep. Snow that's hard packed or has good crust on top is doable for some cars. For that kind of snow, tires with some sort of pins in them work well. When my Wild Dagger was new it did pretty well driving on top of a snow crust with the chevrons/spikes it came with. Snow that's been trampled and a rougher surface is probably better with a much more aggressive spike tires like Pro-Line's Dirt Paws or Trac-Ta-Gator.
I'd go with some aggressive spikes for loose snow (either dry or wet), but once you get more than just a dusting, it's going to be getting stuck a lot.
