I live in Canada, the winters get very bad, lots and lots of snow. I know that RWD is worse on snow than other drive types. My question is how much worse exactly? Is it a small difference or does it become a big one when there’s upwards of 14 inches of snow?
True winter tires such as Bridgestone Blizzak or Michelin X-Ice more than even the playing field. They are incredibly effective. Have driven over the pass in heavy snow many times in a RWD mini-van and driven right past front-wheel drive or all-wheel drive vehicles with normal tires on.
