Have to protect the paint, but I don’t see any reason why you couldn’t pull some inner tubes through the snow with them...
Gotta know someone, somewhere will try something... o_O
Generally speaking AWD is not as robust, and usually does not have a true low range or “4L” as there is no transfer case. 4A does allow you to run with it on even when pavement is dry, or patchy snow or ice, etc. like AWD, however.
