I have found that this principle applies to the use of snow tires on front 
wheel drive cars.  Forward traction and stability on flat roads (like the
Mass Pike around here) are improved with front snows.  However braking and
navigating turns are sometimes more dangerous than without snows.  Next year
I'm getting two more snows for the rear as I am unwilling to give up the
advantages of snows altogether.  California Ho!
