New Ram owner, can't believe how bad it is in the snow.

I think the Michelins I got are way better in the snow then the original good years and I have tried them out getting the trailer out.View attachment 517258View attachment 517259
Did someone say
MICHELIN?

I do so love me some Michelin's

Full Disclosure:
The Bridgestone's, that came on my 2022, are light years better than the Junk Years, that came on my 2014.
Will not go so far as to say they are Michelin Equivelants but I have been impressed, by them.
So much so, that when I needed to replace the OEM Summer Race car Tires, on my Wife's Explorer, at 22K miles. i had a choice between 25K mile Michelins or 80K Bridgestones and Bridgestones ere almost half as much, so I bought them.

Been impressed with them too.

Hated Firestone every since they broke teh Union, back in the 70's but starting to be turned aorund. slowly.

I have a personal rule: I just stay out of the snow.

Snow can be very entertaining to drive in provided you have the right tires and don't have much choice because of where you live.

I sometimes think that I could get used to living in North Florida and buy an old beater for off-road entertainment and fun.

I'll use summer wheels for another 5 or 6 months and enjoy the quiet & smooth ride.

Wide tires equal slippery on snow. Skinny tires equal great on snow.

Those tires on your vehicle are mostly useless on the highway.
