ABS or not, winter tires will always out-brake all-seasons in any winter condition below the freezing mark.

absolutely right, I can't wait to do an apples to apples with winter tires for both.

point is though, abs isn't necessary

So far so good. Been driving without the ABS for a few weeks and i like it way better. It used to kick in while coming to a stop on dry rough pavement. Not in a panic stop either. 10mph coming to a stop.. Very annoying. I've never had ABS so i guess i'm pretty used to braking without it.

Something else i've never had are winter tires. That's why i'm really excited to try out the michelin x-ice tires that came with my yaris!

Just thought of something else: Is there any long term problems that could arise from running no ABS fuse??
