I know its not recomended but has anyone tried snow tires on a 2wd CTS(Wagon). I had snow tires on the back of many 2wd for over 25 years with fine results but I realize this was before ABS etc. I am in Rochester, NY for a few months of snowy weather, then drive to FL with the CTS for the rest of the winter so I hate to screw around buying and changing 4 tires. I could also just keep aggressive All season tires on the rear and rotate them to the front when they are worn some. I know with AWD that is not reccomended but again with a 2wd I dont see a problem.

Why wouldn't you do it on a RWD? Obviously, all four wheels will give you better "whoa" but just the two driving wheels should serve you well. This comment from a former Buckeye and now a "Southern Gentleman" HA!
