Prior to the move I was a nervous wreck about taking my car, even with snow tires, to the northeast. As many of you are aware, the new england area just got hit with a massive snow storm this weekend. I was in Boston during the start of the onslaught. Mass closed roads and public transit. Two years ago I ordered (through tire rack) Blizzak WS70 and Rial Salerno in 17" on all 4 corners. I drove the the worst of it, then drove around town in Portland, ME while they were still plowing roads. I never had an issue. I ripped up and down hills, stopped and started confidently, and past every front wheel drive POS on the road. Hung in there with the Subies. I nearly purchased a 4wd truck before I moved. So glad I didnt. Dont let rear wheel drive and your location be a deterrent. Get the proper equipment and enjoy!

Thank you for the personal review!
Always been a fan of the Blizzak WS70 for those looking for maximum snow and ice traction.
