Snow tyres work - they might not look like they should but they do. They are phenomenal. They are also phenomenally expensive here (UK) in the size (17'') needed for my C2500 Suburban. My choice then is an all terrain tyre - but I don't want something too 'clawy' that makes a racket on bare tarmac, consumes fuel, and is otherwise sub-optimal on bare roads. What's the mildest AT tyre that will still work on snow? Seeing as this is about the tread pattern, pics might help. I've included a pic of a tyre I'm considering - does it look like it will cope with snow?

I recommend you take a look at Nokian tires. I know, I know, a Finn recommending a Finnish product, but let me tell ya, winter tires from a land of ice and snow usually have to be at least halfway decent to even survive out here... Just make sure they're the actual Finnish versions, not the ones made in the USSR, as those tend to... offer a little less performance... Anyhow, while I don't have personal experience with the Rotiiva AT+ models, I am planning on getting those for my next set of allyear tires. I do have proper studded Nokias tho for when we get an actual winter here in the south, but for example last winter I didn't have to put those on, went with my old worn M+S Hankooks all year...
