I live in a hilly/mountainous area that usually sees a fair amount of snow in the winter, and ground clearance can make the difference between making it up an unplowed road, or having the undercarriage drag on the snow, which makes the driver an instant pedestrian. Snow tires are great, unless they can't bite into the surface because the car is high-centered...
