I tried Pilot sport all seasons. They have no grip at all on packed snow.(too wide perhaps?) the good news is, the powered, wider, lighter back end ALWAYS comes loose first. That means a bit of sliding around in back but pretty stable and controllable up front.

Bear in mind I have a true (Quaife) LSD which helps keep things predictable. The stock VLSD was harder to control in the snow.

I advise some caution a LSD and true snow tires. (not "all season" like mine)
