Most people that live in areas of the USA that get ice and snow a few times a year either run all-season tires or drive extremely cautious. If OP feels these 2 options are not good answers for their situation, then I and many others, recommend a snow tire. If OP won the lottery, or likes to buy needless things, then AWD would be perfect for you.
I didn’t win the lottery and don’t have endless amounts of $$ to spend. I’m a nurse and work in a hospital so staying home isn’t an option. I just want to get to and from work without destroying my Camaro. I’ve lived in Texas my entire life so that’s why I’m asking folks from colder regions to help a girl out.
