moving to abq, nm and will be facing winter/snowy-ice conditions. gonna need to get winter/snow tires...recommendations? what about studding vs winter/snow tires?

 

I have heard great things about the Michelin LTX M+S tires, people say they are a great snow tire with long lasting tread that can go year round. I don't have personal experiance.

I haven't neededstudded tires, I have lived inDenver my whole life and have had many other cars that I would have loved some studded tires on (front drive/rear drive) but the MS is another story. Do you have a 2wd Sport? If so, studded tires may be the best way to go. If not, and you have the money I would just get one of the various studless snow tires. I keep the same tires on year round, just have to adjust my driving habits for snow/ice....basically SLOW DOWN! [&:]
