i thinks its easy. with a descent set of tires your should be good if you don't drive like a fool. ive driven mine in 8 inches or so. depth is the problem though.

I have driven mine with blizzaks the last two years and it was not near as bad as I thought. I was able to get through most storms no problem, but as sgtroseberry said depth is a big problem. I had to replace my front bumper because I drove in some heavy snow which destroyed the bumper. Even in light snow you can still kick the tail out with a little throttle around corners even with snow tires, you just have to be carefull.
