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.

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
second winter with my mk8 as well over on the east coast. the frequent issue I run into is my front assist being unavailable from snow / ice. Otherwise I find it very smooth in the winter, I almost prefer winter driving as opposed to spring-fall. my car drives better on my 17" winters than my 19" oem wheels.
Pros: very smooth in winter
Cons: front assist unavailable
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Golf
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.

Cons: hole in downpipe/converter
Vehicle:
Toyota
Mileage: 130357 km
Yes the size choice is criminal and the OEM trailer tires even worse. Come on Toyota.
Cons: OEM trailer tires worse
