The T T/A tires are great for general driving, if you insist on using an all-season as a performance tire get the KDWS's and just drive carefully in the snow.
my dsm uses gforce kdw tires
my svt tour uses traction t/a rubber.

so I talk from experience.

and I said "cornering stability". the KDWs do not like to hit bumps going into a corner.

The grip of the kdw's on a nice day is more than enough to make your face tingle(a step in front of the bfg zr4). And when the kdw's let go, they do not give up.

The T/A's will keep grip until you are against your door panel, then let go. When they give way, they pretty much give up completely.
