  Winter Tires for 4WD SUV

Tires with large lugs are great for deep mud and snow but do nothing for you on ice. Here is a comparison of off road tires. Read where the bigger the tread blocks are, the worse it is on ice.

  Winter Tires for 4WD SUV

This is the first year I have installed winter tires on a modern car. They are the Altimax Artic tires that has a better gripping rubber with lots of siping. If you have ice, this type of tire will grip MUCH better than the snow tires of yore and ANY all season tire out there. In tests of summer, all season, and winter tires on ice, the all season tires test closer to the summer tires than to the winter tires. The winter tires has made driving on ice a little boring because they grip so good, but, I would rather have boring than accidents!

I was able to find a set of near new steel wheels with hub caps, lugs, and tpms for a great price. It is the wifes car and it is nice not to have the tpms warning going off when she drives.
