I ran OEM sized 17" Blizzak RFTs on my Clubman from late October to early April and quite easily survived an Alberta winter.
My little tank did me proud!

Mine did great in the snow a couple of months ago. Then again it was only about a foot deep and I do have DSC + LSD so that helped alot too.

Dude, Vancover, WA is some 21 degrees south of the Arctic Circle. You are closer to Havana than Vancover is the Arctic.
