Marvel R
I bought an MG Marvel R with rear-wheel drive. During summer and autumn, I used Falken all-season tires, and I must say that sometimes in rainy weather, especially in corners, the car would slide. I also experienced wheel spin when pressing the accelerator sharply.
In winter, snow is quite rare where I live, and the roads are mostly clean. I used these tires carefully on cleared roads and didn’t have any problems. However, once I had to drive a short distance on a lightly snow-covered road in my yard, and my rear-wheel-drive Marvel felt very unstable. This might be due to the poor performance of this particular all-season tire model.
I’m also worried that the car may not stop properly if I encounter snow or ice on a slope.
I’m especially interested in experiences with rear-wheel drive, because if I had all-wheel drive, I believe most of these issues would be reduced.

Has anyone used high-quality all-season tires (Michelin, Continental, etc.) in winter on a rear-wheel-drive MG Marvel R, in light snow and icy conditions? Please share your experience.
Or is it better to use dedicated winter tires when driving a rear-wheel-drive car?
