I had a buddy with those, they work great in the mud, but not so good in the snow. They tend to clog with snow if memory serves me right

I like those tires too. What brand grille insert do you have. I have the 2wd version of your truck (same model, color, etc) and think the insert looks great!

Hey thanks guys! yeah just by lookin at em I figured they wouldn't be as good in the snow as the General grabber 265/70/R16s I had on there that I traded for these! they're pretty much new still got the little rubber nubs all over em! I definitley love em but would've gone bigger if I had the $ for new tires but these fell into my lap and the generals were pretty much new too so the trade was good... the grille insert is a replacement for an HD that I got for $50.00...

I have actually heard that the Grabbers are excellent in the snow. Here in Massachusetts they are a highly regarded tire.
