It is defeinatly the tires on the car. I am fairly adept at driving in the snow (I spent 10 years in New England (VT, Mass, RI) before moving to DC, and spent another 15 before that driving up to Vermont fairly regularly during the winter.
Anyway, on my first trip this winter where I encoutnered snow, I spun my 93 SE out 3 times (went off the road and thought I was going to total the car at one point when I was going only 10 miles an hour) Later in the same trip, I had difficulty driving up the slightest hill in a parking lot without a running start. The wheels would just spin and spin and spin (even with traction on and not touching the gas)
Anyway, put real snow tires on and it won't be a problem
