So snow tires honestly make a difference on the WK2's... Just seems crazy what really are the differences I've been reading about it on the net but more for cars

Snow tires will make a difference on ANY vehicle. Remember that the AWD/4WD will mainly help in going...tires will make a difference in doing just about anything else in the snow. Traction is actually more important for SUVs IMO since there is more weight to stop.

That said, I have managed fine in the Boston area with AWD and all-season tires for years. I should get separate rims and snows for winter but at a cost of over $1000 it's been hard to pull the trigger.

Here's an alternative- Tho I had no problem with the Latitude Tours here in upstate NY last winter, I did not venture far. Since I do go to the Adirondacks on day trips and want better overall snow control, I plan to switch to more aggressive all season tires. No not A/T tires as they are not always as quiet or smooth on the road as all seasons. I think I will go to Michelin LTX M/S 2's.
