>>2845889Kinda similar here, though fortunately it's more like 5-6 months of winter and then 6 months of near-perfect weather. (Dry and 70s-80s almost all summer.) I'm on Wildpeak AT3Ws and they were ok last winter but I'm commuting 25mi on the highway to the next town now and I think I'm gonna have to get real winter tires.
>>2845893They barely plow at all in my city, only the highways and main streets. Pic rel is the street outside my house after a single day of late-season snow, and we're expected to deal with it ourselves one way or another.
>>2848228Chains are one thing for occasional ski trips or whatever, another if you're doing 50mi a day on a 2-lane highway where everybody else is going 60+ on their studded tires.
