Anyone have experience with winter tires? The original tires on my front wheel drive Honda Accord have less than 1,000 miles left and I would like to replace now before there is any hydroplane chance. I drive to the mountains to hike very often. These linked tires are “all weather” and three-peak mountain snowflake certified. Supposedly can be used as a “traction device.”
Seriously though, if I were to drive in light snow and/or icy conditions would that be safe?
