  • Dodge 2500 - 285/70R17 - Yes they are softer in the corners but I got used to that fairly quickly. Besides my overall speed in the winter time is slower than in the summer. So the softness in the corners is really no big deal. Dry traction is good. Wet traction is very good. The only snow traction I can comment on is light snow, about 6 inches deep. I took my truck down a moderate four wheel drive trail and only had put it in four wheel drive once. So all in all I would have to rate the snow tracion as excellent. The only thing that would be better in deep snow would be a mud tire. But I wouldn't recommend running a mud tire in winter because they're are terrible on ice. These tires are very good on ice. Infact we had freezing rain three days ago and I had the opportunity to use these tires on glare ice of the most slippery kind. The tires still slipped and slid around but I had enough traction to keep decent control of the vehicle.

  • Dodge 2500 - 285/70R17 - Just bought these tires yesterday and I have put about 20 miles on them so far. Here are my first impressions. The handling of my vehicle has decreased. The tires feel soft in corners and I can't corner as fast as I could with the BFG all terrains I was previously using. However to make sure I am properly conveying my impressions of these tires. The tempurature has been about 24F (-3C)and there is no snow on the ground as of yet. The tires may need to break in before the performance increases, if the performance increases at all. I don't want to judge too soon, but so far I'm not impressed. Hopefully the winter performace will make up for the dissapointing first impression. I will review this tire again after I put them through their paces in real Canadian winter conditions. Until then I cannot rate their Wet, Snow and Tread Wear characteristics.
