I tend to agree. Our 1975 99LE was great in the snow. The tall, skinny tires (185-15?) were better in snow than the low profile tires on modern cars. Of our three 9-5's, the two non-Areos were better in snow because they have a little more ground clearance than the Aero. When you're in deep ruts and you start plowing snow with the front spoiler, you're in trouble. We put new Nokian Hakka R's (215/55-16) on our 09 9-5 SC two weeks ago, and have had plenty of opportunity to drive it in the snow already. Great tires, great car.
