_NO_ all season tire is remotely acceptable for winter driving.

While its a good idea to have the winter tires, its not always a must if you are oen to take risks. As I think this over to myself, yes it would be a very goo didea to get winter tires, but honestly, I just went through my first winter with my Celica, and it was the most snow fall in 50 years here in Barrie Ontario. I had to commute 50 km's a day to work and I ran a new set of all seasons. They were Kumho 732's, good price, i think I palyed 380 for 4 of them installed, and good all season performance. I did some research online to fidn the best tire for snow performance and Kumho had 2 very good ones, I cant rememebr the other but it was more expensive and unable to get it in my size.
the 732 has a little bit of a softer compond, and nice grip in the turns, probably not the best fires for trucks but good for someone wanted one tire set all year
Didnt have any close calls with them in winter, good grip, never got stuck in the snow
