Have to disagree on the Kumho 712s
Mandi's 712s have almost 10,000 miles on them and they are still running perfect. They haven't gotten any louder, and if anything, traction has improved. They are actually wearing alot better than the Dunlops she had before.

Since most of you drive the SVX all the time, i wouldn't expect you to notice bad handling in the snow, because you have nothing to compare it to. I was speaking in comparison to my front drive grand prix, the SVX does not handle snow as well. Granted if you drive at 10mph all the time it's fine...but much faster than 25mph in more than 2 inches of snow, and traction is all but gone due to those wide tires. So while it's certainly not unacceptable performance, it is less than what i would expect from an AWD car.
