  I can vouch for the Blizzaks as well - Bob Tom has them on his '97
2wd V8 Dak during the winter, and they walked *up* a sheer ice driveway
without even spinning. Every other vehicle that went down that hill
had to be winched up and/or wait until a thaw, with the exception of
Jason's 4x4 Dak.

  I was very impressed with the traction, and if I were going to
drive a 2wd vehicle in the winter, I'd seriously consider getting
a set!
