Hi,
First to the guy with the truck and the T-bird...the reason you can get away with all seasons on your vehicles are because they weigh a lot. This helps in traction. In comparison a focus is quite light and therefore slides around much much more. Therefore, on a focus winter tires are a must. Yes 4 are better, but two is better than none. And yes, put them on the rear.
I now live in Winnipeg and would not drive here in the winter without them on. I moved here from Fredericton, and again although we did not get alot of snow, you never knew when you would get it, and as a shift worker who needed to get to work on time and in one piece, I was very happy to have them.
I also spent November/December 06 in the Barrie/GTA/Hamilton area. Drove through the area every weekend...was glad I had the snows on, on more than one occassion.
Finally, as a member of the Canadian Law Enforcement community..Please, don't be stupid, you live in Canada..we get some pretty harsh winter driving conditions no matter where you live so PUT SNOW TIRES ON YOUR VEHICLES!!!!!!!!!
Thanks...ok back to your regularly scheduled programing...LoL
