If you were to get stuck in a snow drift, how would you rock out of that with only 2 wheels spinning? Where would you go if you couldn't proceed?

im not really super worried about it, i was planning on getting a new set but just not exactly sure on what to get, ofcourse money is an issue as always... But i was looking at the tread on an explorer clunker we have at the dealership i work at and im thinking about swaping wheels/tires, theyve got roughly 75% left on them and they are wrangler rt/s tires. obviously new is always best but free is still pretty damn nice. I really appreciate everyones input. Sorry i havent been making any replies but with the move and all the fun stuff that goes with it i really havent had the time.

Anyway keep on throwing your 2 cents in, its not bad hearing everyones thoughts and experiences!

thank you, btw if you add sand bags in the back compartment you'll be styling for sure... with that said snow don't do jack, now ice on the other hand... ice don't car whether you have 2 wheel or 4 wheels your gonna slide.......
