Curious though--what are snow tires like when there isn't any snow? I assume you guys put them on when it starts getting cold or whatever--but surely there isn't snow on the ground all the time. Are they unforgiving? Just wondering....

The tires I use are dedicated snows - Blizzak Revo 1. They are not performance snows so they are a compromise in the dry. They tramline like crazy and are very very soft. However, they are worth it for the peace of mind when conditions get harsh. They are very smooth and comfortable but are not great at high speeds or performance driving. I have always had two sets of wheels/tires where I live. I just get used to the slower non-performance driving when it snows. Although it is relative as these tires outperform just about everything without studs on the road when the road is covered with ice and snow!
