You must not do much snow/ice driving. In the snow and ice, there is a much more noticeable difference in traction, braking, and handling in snowy and icy conditions. I drove for years on all-season tires in Minnesota and Wisconsin. However, it was a game changer the first time I bought a set of snow tires. Marked difference.

Anyway, I've had Nokians but just bought a set of Hankook W409s (studded).
