i did drive the first part of winter with OEM all seasons but since i do a lot of night driving and i do alot of km per year i decided to get winter tires and to be honest i have never felt so safe. before my yaris, if there was too much snow out i wouldnt go out but now i love it.
like today for example, spent the evenning out in the country driving around in the fresh snow

I have the traction and stability control as well, running 195/60/15 winter tires, and I have had no issues whatsoever. I drive about 70km a day for work, and never had a problem with the snow.
And we've had a crap load of snow this year to boot! One of the worst winters around here probably in at least 4 years.
