Obviously snow tires are a plus in this situation, but I throw some sandbags in the trunk and put it in snow mode and I do just fine on my Goodyear Eagle F1 AS. I haven't had any big snow this year but drove around several times last year in 4-6" of snow and had little issues. Make sure when you come to a stop (especially while the engine is cold and revving higher) that you throw it in Neutral. Make stopping 100 times better. The damn car just pulls so hard when it's idling that it will just slide you out of control.

Dude, I just moved to Chicago from AZ with My 350 and just got my snow tires installed yesterday, I had the Factory Potenza's in the 1" snow on Monday, and couldnt even move my car, traction control would kick in every minute.
We just got 10" of Snow today and with my new Dunlop Winter Sport 3D's HOLY COW! Night and day difference! I was plowing through massive snow banks and never got stuck! Snow mode + Snow tires FTW!! Turns are no problems, and I can actually accelerate with minimal slip!
Also, the ride quality is amazing, I feel like Im driving a caddilac.
