Winter Tires

[Mauro (Dynamic)]

Greetings to everybody ! I am a new member from Italy

I need for some information about winter tires. I have to use them in winter, also with very cold temperatures (sometimes likes -20?) and on snowy road, on really slippery ground (not high powder).

So I think to buy the Goodyear Wrangler SR-A (on 20" wheels), do you know how these tires works in this condition ?

I wait your answers, thank you very much !

The SR-A does not have the snowflake symbol meaning it will be just OK in the snow.... If you are looking for something that will be much better in the snow then I suggest you look at the Goodyear Duratrac

In my experience, the BEST tires for snow & ice on the H2 are the BFG ATs. They are amazing.

I know Goodyear Duratrack but here in Europe they are quite impossible to find
So I asked in some American sites but there some difficulties there too. Now I'll try to contact tiretrack.

I can choose beetween holding my 17" wheels with tires size 315/70 R17 (BFG AT mounted) or changing buying the original 2009 Hummer H2's wheels of 20" with 315/60 tires, what's the better choice ?

Can you suggest some other alternatives tires (for both the sizes) ?

Thank you for the help !

Tirerack has the Duratracs, as far as going with 17" or 20" its your perferance to be honest. If your current 17" rims have the BFG AT's and they are in really good condition with lots of tread they should be fine in the snow..... when they get older and down to around 50% tread they begin to suck in the snow.

Nitto Teragrapplers, or Toyo Open Country AT's would be pretty good. I think I'm gonna throw the Nitto's on my pickup.

The BFG ATs will do you justice. I highly recommend.

Well after 3 sets of BFG A/T I thought I try some from Tire Rack some Yokahomas so far they are working great in the snow and ice.

Has anyone here tried the Kumho Venture MT's? they are kinda on the cheap but the tread looked cool.

I've have the Mickey Thompson Baja Claw and love them in the snow. Best tires I've had yet.
