Another age old debate-- but I will state for a fact that I have two front wheel drive cars right now that have to have as good as or better rear tires than the front. Back end will( not possibly) swing out and go ahead of you on a slightly slippery road. It doesn't matter if it is straight or a curve, curves are worse. And yes the four wheel alignment is done often to make sure it is not an alignment problem. Bring your balder or hard tires up here and drive in the Twin Cities when conditions are moderately slippery and you will find out. Just saying as I have tested that theory a couple times and did not like it. Poor or hard tires here is dangerous and I have been lucky and not hit anything yet when out of control. The argument of slow down works but if you are the slowest one then you just became a problem that should not be on the road. Poor tires on the front of a front wheel drive will get around a lot better than a pickup with even a 1000 lbs in the back. I know that for a fact also and have done it many times. It is not the snow but ice that gets people into trouble.

He wanted to get the rest of his corn in by the next day (Christmas Eve). We had about an inch of new snow on the ground and single digit temperatures. So in the bac
