rh71,

My 3.0si is riding on the 20" all season mich latitude tours. They performed well in 2-3 inches of snow. No slippage at all. I live in N. KY across the bridge from downtown Cincinnati and we were slammed with a blizzard 2 weeks ago. I took a drive in my neighborhood in 5 inches of snow and had no problem plowing through the snow at 40-45 mph. I will definetly buy them again when its time to replace them! Let me know if you have any questions.
