perilli 20" tires

bought an 08 lincoln 4X4 with 20" perilli from factory. they say m+s but they suck.
i know the ford system is great with limited slip, we have a 98 lariet 4X4 that has used only goodyear wranglers. no comparison whatsoever in snow roads.
the 98 ford is incredible. lincoln with perillis are terrible. at 50 mph, on snowy road, a 1/2 way step down downshifting to second causes 4 wheel spin. sure the linclon has 300 hp compared to the 98 f150 235 but?? my volvo awdR against the lincoln from start to 2 blockw puts the volvo ahead almost 1 block
due to lincoln spinning. 4 wheel spinning makes the lincoln-perilli dangerous taking off from driveways etc. anyone try any other 20" ice/snow tires??

Most everyone agrees that the oem Pirellies that Ford/Lincoln/Mercury use are a pretty bad tire. Just about anything will be an improvement.
