Default snow tires

let me start off by saying ive done the searches and cant find what im looking for. im looking to see what you guys run for tires. i want an agressive snow tire that wont let me down. what do you find works best in the snow for an at tire. all the reviews talk more about getting stuck in mud and saying bad things about them, that isnt important to me. thanks for your advice.

Generally an "off-road" mud tire is good in snow you'll air down in snow just like mud to ride on the pack i've used procomp mud terrains forever and i loved em. i've also run bfg mt's and maxxis big horns both good.

Wouldn't we all you kinda have make a sacrifice off--road performance or on road. maybe you should find a nice aggressive all-terrain. bfg can't go wrong or pro-comp extreme allterrain

These look like they do good enough in the snow for ya?



Kumho Road Venture M/T KL71's, Haven't worn hardly at all in the year I've had them and it's driven on the highway every single day. Quiet too.

Best AT I have ever used in the snow, good enough for DD, quiet and refused to wear out - Bridgestone Dueler AT Revo. They were rated #1 on Tire Rack for years. I used them on my XJ, ZJ & Durango. Same set. Then sold them for good money when I moved up to stock 17" rubber on the Dodge.
