Nokains are the best. For sure. Especially on your drive. I would get ones with the biggest and meanest looking treads you can. Now, those are not as good for smooth road driving, but if you get into some shat, the bigger the tread, the better!

I have Nokian RSi's on my car, and they just pound through snow and slush. Kinda like how someone (me) treats another someone's (Locke) mom. That's how I treat the slush when I am driving.

Good luck, but it is an expensive (and some days, VERY useful) safety feature.
