Holy crap man. If you didn't win that at an awesome event held by a bunch of awesome guys, I would complain to the company daily. That's ridiculous.

Its ice. You can't grip a whole lot with rubber on ice. Lol.

I think KM2s are arguably the best all around tire considering street, snow, rocks, and mud.

Very true.

Boo. They're sexy. I just drove in the 3" of snow and ice here in GA and they didn't miss a beat in 2wd aired up like normal. Were the ones you saw the TTC's?

Aren't all Claws TTC? Or is it a newer style, like KM2?

My MTZs have been nothing short of fantastic in those conditions...if you got the cash they're well worth it

It's the newer style. Softer compound and supposed to be fantastic on wet roads and rocks, which they have been.

Yes only 3" because I'm in GA... Lol. AT2's won't follow me on rocks lol.
