My '06 4.4 came with michelin energy + a/s, their fine with southern va weather but we get lots of ice down here. Not a lot of snow, maybe 3-4x in season so i don't want to spend dough for winter/summer tires. i read these energy + don't even fare well in snow. i have not driven it yet in snow country but will be doing lots of travel to northern va soon. I'm starting my research so any suggestions is welcome.
