Car Doctor: Concerned about how Avalon will handle winter weather - The Providence Journal
Traction, both to get the car moving and to stop, will certainly improve with snow tires but, to some extent, the use of snow tires can be a personal choice. In general, the Avalon handles winter weather pretty well, especially with new tires. However, even new all-season tires will not provide the traction of snow tires. If your driving takes you out in poor weather before the roads are plowed, there is no substitute for snow tires. Source: www.providencejournal.com
