It does act as a snow plow on occasion (i.e. when there is 12 inches of snow on the ground) but I still had no issue getting through it. Oh, also, I wasn't going on many inclines and those I did, I don't recall having an issue.

Yea I live in Chicago as well- 82 inches in total of snow this year. I had all season tires on my FRS. I had no issues.
