Snow tires make a huge difference. My GS-R had no trouble during the
heavy snow in Chicago this week. I was easily faster and had more
control than 90% of the vehicles driving including the SUVs. I have
Nokian tires but I don't think they are available anymore. Michelin
and Bridgestone also make very good winter tires.
