We get snow tires because my wife has to drive four hours over mountain passes to visit her elderly ill mother, sometimes on no notice (mom gets hospitalized, wife has to jump in the car). My wife is not the sort to notice that a tire is deflating, she's more the sort to get stuck twenty miles into a snowy pass with a flat tire, no idea how to change it, and no cell coverage . . .

Hey, the same excuse I use for buying proper snow tires - "cheaper than an insurance deductible / rate hike" also applies there. I 50% wish I would have gotten them but that die is cast...
