I live in DC as well but I have not had the RE730's in the snow yet. I imagine with the front wheel drive and traction control on my 5 spd V6 it would go OK in the snow; it is good in the rain. However, if you are buying for winter traction you should look at an all-season rated tire. The RE-730'S dont fall in this category.
I have a Jeep Cherokee and a Ford Expedition, both 4WD, so I don't have to settle for a compromise tire. If you really want winter traction opt for a spare set of steel wheels and some winter tires. You can then use some true perfomance tires for the other 9 months of the year. Here in DC Dec, Jan and Feb is generally the only true winter weather months.
