Jay, I don't think a Crossfire would do well in 8" of snow, but it did fine in 5" of snow this week with the GYF1AS tires. Like I said, these tires are very impressive in snow. Turning was "interesting" to say the least, but these tires will really push your car thru the snow. I didn't get stuck once in the 13 miles I had to drive to get to work this week. I'm getting kinda tired of the snow already though. Three snowfalls of 3+" so far this month. Bummer...
