We use studless winter tires and have for years. Studs might work better on glare ice but I've used good studless tires west of the Cascades even after ice storms with no issues. studs tear up roads.

I didn't put snow tires on last year, then the Feb 26th snowstorm hit and couldn't get out of my driveway.. Not going to let that happen this year.

I have 2 sets of tires 1 does have studs but I never use them. I just add a couple sand bags in the back of my RAV4, put it in lower gear when needed & off I go. Studs tear up the roads. DRIVE SLOW

Living here requires at the LEAST an all-wheel drive. I always drive a 4x4 truck with "all season" tires and get around just fine.

I use studded snow tires. I want more security while I’m on the road.

I have good new Michelin tires and all-wheel drive on my Mini, so don't need snow tires. Studs do so much damage to the roads, and switching sets of tires twice every season is way too much trouble.

I can't afford it, though I'm not sure if it would help.

All season radials work great.

Have a Subaru and run all season tires year round. Just slow down on snowy roads.
