For Winter shoes

[Buddy]

Winter has arrived sadly, so I am making sure I have good feet beneath me.

I have no idea why those posted up upside down?????

Anyway, Bridgestone Blizzack DM-V1, 265 70 18.
Went slightly smaller for cost, but also wanted slightly narrower to cut through the snow. And because the roads here heave quite a bit from.the winter frost, wanted a slightly bigger sidewall to cushion the ride a bit. OD is pretty much stock spec.
Bring on the miserable winter weather...... well not really, I'dd still rather enjoy a green Christmas and rest of winter....... please Santa, I've been sorta good...

Good looking tire even upside down

 

[Buddy]

Lol, lets just hope this isn't a sign for the winter... upside down... got them to stay right side up.

I knew it, you're Australian.

Nice rims.

 

[Buddy]

Thanks! They're by Granite Alloy GV5S, 18x9. I got the rims/tires from Tirerack, a winter package. I am not crazy about plain black steel rims for winter, I mean they serve their purpose and all, but not attractive. So I figured I'dd spend a bit more and at least get a rim that had at least some looks better than the standard black steels.
I will say I am counting ourselves lucky here, Buffalo is supposed to get like 6 feet of snow when their storm ends by Friday!!!!! That is crazy!!! We are getting sun. Cold and it snowed some, but sun now.

they're mean. I think black steel rims ruin the look of any vehicle so good call, I wouldn't even mind running those all year round..but that's just me. Not a fan of pretty blingy rims.

I am happy with these for winter, price was really good. I am actually very happy with the stock rims that Dodge put on these Sports, I think they did them right. I will keep them warm and cozy for winter and put them back on for summer.
But I agree with you, these GA's look good too, so for winter the truck still has some character.

call a tow truck, you are upside down tehehehe

I wish I had nice snow tires today where I commute to everyday...Buffalo, NY. We got 6 feet of snow and they're forecasting an additional 2-3 feet tonight!!!

I tried that once, upside down is not fun...




It still ran after 6 barrel rolls!

[Buddy]

Wow, that is rough, glad your ok. I feel bad for you all in Buffalo and surrounding, I heard 5 deaths.... that is tragic. I hope everyone is gonna be ok.
