Not "everyone."  My experience matches David Beierl's. No all-season tire
can compare to a good directional snow tire, but the Hankooks are the best
all-season tires I've used in snow or ice. Far superior to Michelin,
Bridgestone, etc.  This is in central PA, where we have a lot of hills and a
fair bit of snow during the winter.
