You could, just be very careful. My friend actually drove with these in 5 inches of snow and got traction- I don't know how haha.

I have them and they are somewhat ok in light rain but seem to hydro a bit in heavy rain. Depending on how new they are seems to really matter. I ran them all summer in Florida but did have some hairy times with them. Just have to be very carefull!

ive been riding it all year round the past two years and i don't have problem with them. drive it slow or normal on rain you'll be fine just don't abuse it or you'll have a big problem.
