To anyone who re-visits the thread and isn't located above the 49th Parallel: what's the justification for combining snow tires with an AWD car?
Nothing IMO.

Its fine but clearance is key in deep snow if you encounter 10 to 12 inches fresh before plowed the tread bite is important to push you through from a stopped start or pulling a steep incline. Honestly other than the pain of putting on and off chains will get you from the residential side streets to the maintained roads better than anything that isn't on tracks.
