Portlis, isn't the bigger issue the clearance of the front chin spoiler?

Seeing how the car is so low to the ground, I presume that any traction gained by adding winter tires would be offset by the low clearance.

Seeing how you live in MN, when it snows, it really SNOWS, so u may want to consider skipping the snow tires and getting a second car for winter.

Also, even if u have traction, do u really want to drive your new car in the winter and run the risk that another car bumps into yours? Winter is when most accidents occur, especially being rear ended.

What good is traction, if the cars around you don't have it.

Just a thought.
