2001 Neon R/T traction problem!!!

Wassup everyone, I have a 2001 Dodge Neon R/T(Road and Track)...its a wicked ass car with all the toys, it stops on a dime with disc brakes all the way around. However I live in Toronto and we tend to get alot of snow here, MY CAR HAS ABSOLUTELY THE WORST TRACTION IN BAD WEATHER!!!!?@$@!

It is border line non-driveable. I have to drive like 40km/h no matter where I am when it snows. I have never driven a car as bad as this in the snow, I've done re-allignments got snow tires, EVERYTHING....if anyone knows what could be causing the problem or has heard of this happening to any other neons plsssssss let me know..thanks!

same problem with mine. get blizzark tires and take the performace mods off for the winter. neons almost take to well to mods so you are getting lots of power down. kinda sucks to swap out parts but i do the same thing.

2002 Neon RT here WS 50 Blizzaks

They work like a charm, but yes in the 96 sport we had, it definately had way better traction....big difference in torque could be the problem. I do get around not 2 badly, can't stand the slushy crap though, hard pack is where I have the best traction. I also live up in Canada, edmonton to be exact...
