don't get me wrong, they are great in the snow. But like any tire, pressing the peddle too fast will spin the rear tires. We had a bad winter this year and my front tires are bald and backs are like 1/4 thread left and jeep had no issue in 4wd getting around and ive done 2wd driving as well with them in the snow and had stability

I just add coolant to the reservoir as it needs it, approx once every two weeks/2 tanks of fuel...I thought i found the leak, but there must be...ANOTHER! Oils clean, plugs are normal, compression is good, oil pressure is normal, no noises...I'll worry when it gets worse!

On a side note, picked up some 33x13.5 tsl supers mounted and balanced on cragars with 90-95% tread for $750, I think it's a steal, they were only on CL for 14hrs before I snagged them I'll have pics tomorrow, and yes jake I know they're heavy and bias ply and crap on the road, gunna get some dumb 31's for the other rims as daily wheels eventually this summer though

Awfully nice of you to stop by. As you can see, there's only a few of us regulars here. Most people pop up to introduce themselves and Jake always scare them away. Ya know... How he look like a great white shark and all... Don't worry. He just want to give big hugs to new people and tell them it's okay.

stock size 235/70/16 destination ATs. Awesome tires but wanted something slightly more aggressive as an AT when I upgraded size. Plus around my way tire shops either didn't have things like Nittos or the price was crazy. So the Grabbers was a happy medium
