I have not tried it much on the road yet ;-)
From what I have it was not that bad, well not as bad as I was expecting.
The wheels are not quite right, should have been my custom artic camo which I settled on with the front grille. Basically when giving the grille a new lease of life with a spray up, I primed it with grey plastic primer and started to go over with satin black, except I ran out. End result looked kinda cool in an artic camo style so I tried to do the wheels the same. Bit too much black though.
Had a bit of water come into the back again, need to investigate that (via my other "wet patch" thread I guess).

The mud tires youve got will probbably be good in fresh snow too but not great on wet tarmac or icy conditions.I have not tried it much on the road yet ;-)

I am expecting them to be slippery in the wet, but the plan is some road tyres in the spring. Between now and then I will only be doing 50-70 miles a week, so fingers crossed I do not end up in a ditch. But maybe if I do I could get out with these...
