Are you using 195's on the 4kq?  Because I believe we were talking
about a 5ktq, which weighs well over 600 lbs more than your 4kq.
Plus, the owner mentioned he really only drove in snow when going
on ski trips.  I still recomended 195/65 NRW's, however.

I use hakk 1's on my families cars, 185/65's on my 4kq (85, so even
heavier than yours), and if I lived somewhere with a ton of snow,
I would use 175/70-14.  Other Hakks include 195/65-15s on my fathers 
fwd 100, 195/60-15 on the Volvo 855T, and my brothers 5ktq came with
Perelli P210 Directional Ice in 205/60-15.  My 200tq currently gets 
stored for the winter.
