Our first snow storm I drove through a couple inches in my neighborhood and some slush in the turn arounds on the highway, no problem with Continental ExtremeContact DWS on.

This storm, had about 3 inches in my neighborhood but some traffic had packed it down a little, it was slipping a little bit on the packed icy tracks, no real problem getting out to the highway.

just got to drive in some real snow today and the car did great, the traction control didn't even bother me. It seems to be a pretty decent system
