You're right, just my luck that my first year with the car was among the worst in history in terms of regional snowfall. Tire Rack had the LM's on clearance, and the description as more of a winter performance tire seemed appropriate for the tri-state area where there is typically only a couple of snowfalls per winter. Hopefully next winter is more of a return to normalcy.
