Fwd with snow tires in the winter isnt a bad option. You can't win every battle but itl do for 99% if the driving. I live in northern WI and we drive all over the place with Prius' and snow tires no problem.
Pros: not a bad option
Vehicle:
Toyota Prius
I'm using Achilles Desert Hawk HT2 (on SUV with 32PSI).. tire whistle can only heard after 120KPH. tahimik po sya based on my experience...

Vehicle:

Yeah holes in the tyres generally aren\u2019t great for holding pressure! That tyre is a long way past dead, it needs changing ASAP, i personally wouldn\u2019t trust it for driving at any speed.
Cons: tyre past dead
Vehicle:
Toyota MR2
I recently went from FWD Toyota with good tires too AWD Subaru with good tires and there is no comparison. With my FWD in the snow I would regularly lose traction in corners at very low speed, sub 5 mph going around city streets. I could not start driving on a hill if there was snow or ice.
Pros: good tires, no comparison
Cons: lose traction in corners
Vehicle:
Toyota
I got a 2006 Toyota Solara in June for $4250. 81k miles, one owner. I got new tires and had to change the downpipe/catalytic converter because it had a hole after driving for 2 months.
Pros: low mileage, one owner
Cons: hole in downpipe/converter
Vehicle:
Toyota
Mileage: 130357 km
Recently bought a used Subaru Crosstrek for my daughter, and CarMax clearly had put new tires on them — specifically, Achilles SportTouring A/S.
I know nothing about this brand or model, so I can’t say what their wet or snow performance might be (or any other parameters, for that matter).
Vehicle:
Subaru
Yes the size choice is criminal and the OEM trailer tires even worse. Come on Toyota.
Cons: OEM trailer tires worse
Vehicle:
Toyota Land Cruiser
The OEM tires are trash (I have the smaller ???? wheels for improved ride quality).
Cons: poor quality, trash
Vehicle:
Toyota Camry
