The DWS is probably slightly better than the average a/s but it can only do so much... Always get snow tires or stay home.
Thanks for the replies. According to Tirerack video they are way better than any other a/s (no season) tire. I'll stick to full winter tire. Want 19" and there arent many available. 18" package is more$ than 19" winter tires. I always mount snows on original wheels and get a set of BBS for summer.
