Thumbs up winter tires on 16inch steelies

I purchased Bridgestone Blizzak LM-25 for 16 inch steelies for my ss/sc for this winter. This was my first winter with specific winter tires. I always had access to an awd car. I must say, these tires are ******* amazing. i drove 35 miles to work in unplowed 6inches of snow today without a problem, not getting stuck once or had the feeling of lost control. They didn't understeer or oversteer and I was able to maintain the speed limit in 35mph and 45mph zones. Highway, i didn't go above 50mph. I recommend these to anyone looking for a winter tire, I know I won't be driving another winter without dedicated snow tires.


I did get stuck pulling up my driveway where we got about a foot though. Only reason I got stuck was because the front of my car was acting as a plow cause the snow was a lot higher than the bottom of my car...lol. I was still able to make it up my hill of a driveway on a second try though.
