Finally, some snow is coming to the DC area! I have been waiting forever it seems. Now to use that 4x4 again. I hope we get all 8 inches of it, that the weather man says is coming to us!!
YEEAAHHH BUUDDYY!! I'm going to have to get some nice new tires myself, now that I think about it. I have my eye on some Bridgestones right now. Looks like I'm going to have to get them soon.

I got the bfg all terrain and I love them?work great and they have that thing that if you get stuck or flat they'll pull you out, or come fix you flat for free?just piece of mind?Like the Kumho's too though, they look tough?how's the road noise on the highway?

IMHO, road noise ain't that bad, compared to my old GY Wranglers. but, then again, they coulda been roaring because they were cupped do to worn out steering/suspension parts.
I have a set of Cooper SXT's on my 2000 D. Tread looks the same as kohmos. I love them. The handleing is great, pretty quiet given the aggressive tread pattern. Traction offroad and in snow is fantastic, although they do seen to get a little squirrly in the wet. But then again maybe that means I got too much power. Na that can't be it. Anyway, they do get a bit noisy around 45-50mph, but at highway speeds they seem to get quieter. My dealer was actually very surprised. You see he tried to talk me outta them saying they were gonna be too loud, But I knew better. I already had a pair of 35/12.5 on my Bronco. I'd definetly buy them again.
Well dang! I was all excited about snow and what did we get? Dudsville!! Man and here it's the first week of February and we have no snow coming at all as far as the W-Man can tell. I was all excited about testing out my 4x4 with the new Bridgestone tires and now I guess I'll have to wait until spring showers to jump in some? MUD!!
Where in WI are you? I'm in Oshkosh and we had a little snow this past weekend but nothing significant. Most of it's all melted now. I think I used the 4WD a total of about 30 seconds just to get away from a stoplight or two. Other than that, it had excellent traction in 2WD.

Guys!
I wish I were you. I hate the snow. :evil: :evil: :evil: It's slippery, a lot of snow and very
cold. :evil:
I have to use 4x4, because there's special chemical component on the road,
and it's very slippery. :evil:
Here in the GREAT NORTHEAST (North of Albany, NY), we have NO snow on the ground and none forecast for the immediate future.
A little more than 100 miles NorthWest of here they got 35+ inches Yesterday. Gotta love Lake Effect, especially when the lakes still have open water on them.
people say that according to the Farmers' Almanac, we're supposed to be getting slammed with snow either this month or March. well, here's to wishful thinkin'!! :twisted:
Yeah FSTDANGO3 I agree. No high winter utility prices, so let's save that money for a? fishing vacation!! Man, I'm planning my vacation right now. Let's see, Marthas Vineyard for 2 weeks of fishing and sailing and eating and drinking and?
We didn't have any snow up until Christmas, then some, and suddenly 10inches a week ago. Another 5inches the last couple of days have given me problems with getting rid of it. But I like it, it gives me a big advantage over other cars!
The best tires for me are the ones with a soft rubber compound, but they wear out quickly on dry summer asphalt. All cars here therfore have two sets. Mine are re-threaded with a special mixture of soft rubber and sand particles. Unfortunately, they stopped making them in my size.
Retreads on the front?
Here in NJ You can't use retreads on the front. And only on the back of heavier trucks.
Do you have a close up of the retread on those Good Years!

We're supposed to get a big storm Sat night and Sunday. Wish it was 24 hrs later - wife's Womens Club big Antique Show is Sunday. Guess I'll be using the D to shuttle people and stuff around
I have something to say to those whom wanted all this snow coming Rasberries to you!
I say no snow!
Damn NorEaster coming our way! 6-12 " expected. ARGH!! Steve
DOC Pres
Only 2"-5" expected up here, and that's not much more than an annoyance to us. But South and East of us is expected to see blizzard conditions.
Please drive carefully tomorrow folks - it's gonna get nasty.
First it was gonna be 12" plus, then only 1-3, now 6-12"
They don't know! Hopefully it blows East out to sea. Steve
