OK How much "endless snow" are we talking here? I have no doubt that you get much more snow up there than we do here in Philly, even with the past 2 winters we had here.
My point, I have Eibachs, and very good all season tires, very good as in $700 a set and I had NO PROBLEMS getting stuck in the snow. Our biggest storm was 30 inches, and I didn't get stuck. The plow truck at my apartment plowed in my car. I didn't shovel out the snow in front of the car and I pulled right out after the 4th straight away (had to back up 3 times and push thru a little bit more each time, my neighbor with the Land Rover thought I was
at first then after the 4th time he was like
that my lowered 2 door coupe pulled out and then he looked at his Rover stucj in the snow and was like
but it's cool cause I was
at him and his $70,000 truck stuck in the snow.)
I did get stuck once this past winter only becasue the tires where soooooooooooooooooooo good, as soon as I spun, the car dug a rut and when straight down
but it was nothing a little bit of kitty litter couldn't handle
Bottom line an Alero lowered 1.25 inches does fine in 30 inches of snow
