"Car and truck tires need tread, because these vehicles are prone to a very dangerous condition called "hydroplaning. At high speeds, hydroplaning is just possible for car tires, but is absolutely impossible for bicycle tires."
- spooneybarger 16y agothey are better for getting through snow. off road tires do much better in the snow. studded ones are even better. rain isnt going to be much of an issue with off road or street tires, snow and ice are. studded tires are best but seriously overkill for most people. off road tires are a nice compromise unless you live someplace that gets tons of snow- which i suspect the op isnt because of the combo of snow and wet rather than just snow.
