Default Winter rims and tires

So I found some stock 17" rims for dirt cheap and now I need some winter tires

I had BF Goodrich on my Ranger and I have Nitto's on this one that I don't want to run all winter. Here is a pic of my setup......let me know what you guys think!

General Grabber AT2's for sure. I had them on my Jeep through several North Dakota winters and they were amazing. The tread pattern is almost identical to the BF's but the AT2's have a 60k mile tread wear warranty and you can stud them (the BF's you cannot.) Also, they're not very expensive at all. If they can hold up to ND's winters, they can hold up to anything.

Default Winter Tires

I also found and had shipped in a set of winter rims for my truck (because it's a heavy half and rims are hard to find) and found some tires for cheap that were run just one season on CL. Worked out very well and keeps the good ones from getting all corroded and chewed up. After one season of not having your good stuff all salt covered, you'll love it.
