Default winter/al season tires

Hello everyone,

I have a 00 2wd club cab, which doesn't seem to like even wet roads so with winter aproaching I'm really thinking I should change tires, but I don't know what to buy so I'd like to know what others have to say. Also I'm in southern Ont. Canada

I would just put some sand bags over the rear axle and buy some new tires. I had sport kings on my 88 last winter with 350lbs of sand and they did really good in the snow.

where do you live in ontario?

I work at a Canadian tire and got some RoughRider At/S's. They are WAY better tahn the POS Wranglers ( I used to work at a Goodyear too) I got a great price on them and they are great in the snow.Whatever you do decide on getting, make sure you don't pay full price, everyone is always willing to cut you a deal, just ask.

sand bags are good!. I think BFG's A/T's are good. Or check out cooper tires.
