Great

I have Winter Dueler for two winter now and still very good, awsome traction, almost never use 4x4 on snowy road(do not mistake with deap snow). Before I was always spinning my rear wheels in the slytest amonth of snow, now I can go a long way before tinking of 4x4, not to say I dont use it anymore. So my vote would be to put em on, if they made the same tread in 185/75/14 for the Escort I would buy another set.

Winer tires???

I have Pathfinder AT tires from Americas Tire Store. I've had them for 4 years, 45K miles, still usable tread left. Great all-around tires, outstanding traction in wet and snow. Also good for off-road use year round. Cheap too. Under $90 for 31X10.5

I wonder about the survey results - Goodrich All-terrain TAs weren't even there, and that is about the best tire in existence.

Good luck
