Depends on how hard core a car guy u are.. And how well of a driver..
I drove my Camaro thru the winter first with Pirellis. Had to wait till they plowed. Was hard getting thru snow that stuck.
Then with Winter tires. Not that bad. Just when u spin back end with slide. You have to be-careful. But I got around fine.
NYc there is always the train when weather sucks.. and hope where u live has a garage.. no parking in manhattan..
There are snow tires that fit. And chevy tested it in the snow..

Io sono italiano pure, ma dalla Sicilia. Non vorrei andare in qualsiasi rivenditore di Manhattan. Sono ladri. Ti consiglio di provare un rivenditore di Long Island. Buona fortuna!
