you would be ice skating. the reason the winter tires work so well is because they are a softer compound and heat up faster which allows you to grip. a buddy of mine had a 4x4 with mudders on all 4 tires and he couldnt even get up his driveway. i great winter tire for cheap are the Winterforce tires. i feel like they are better than blizzaks

mud terrains will not be any good AT ALL in the winter.......

go with a good ice grip Michelin, or Blizzaks, and any 'all season' tire....LOL dont use those in the north either...all season except winter
