I would recomend using 4 snow tires.  I had a nasty experience in a front-
wheel-drive '77 Horizon where I started fishtailing.  I wound up in the
ditch, but only momentarily.  Snow tires in the back will help keep this
from happenning ( better traction ).  It's a myth that front-wheel-drive
cars don't fishtail.
