Default How are the Pirelli P7000's in light snow conditions?

i know they are supposed to be M&S allseason tires (i think...) so i'm curious as to how they perform in light snow conditions (a few tahoe trips) most of the driving is on dry/wet land (california) but i go to tahoe a few times in the winter. just curious as to how they'd do. thanks.

Default Pirelli's slid around pretty badly today in 8cm of fresh snow.No traction when trying to brake.

The intial start off was not that great either,yes they are advertised as a M+S tyre but I am definately going to hook up some snows.

Default They really are VERY minimal for snow....

We did our winter slide & drive in the snow on those vs SP5000s last year & it TOTALLY reaffirmed my belief in getting stuck EVERY time on 4-8" of snow on the 328Cis that I do not recommend them as a practical all-season tire choice.

Hope this helps- call me if you would like to discuss further!
