Another snow question:

Are runflats naturally going to suck in the snow because they are stiffer? Especially "performance" runflats. Thanks...

Performance runflats are just that - performance tires. Unacceptable for snow driving, unless you enjoy a white knuckle ride. You need all seasons or true snow tires.

My car came with S-Lites with Eufori@s. After a few trips on the snow, I ordered ASA LS5s with Blizzak snow tires on them. The Eufori@s were totally unacceptable on the snow.
