I'm not a tire salesman but myself, and it appears redneck ram as well, recommend Duratracs. I'm on my first set but once these are worn out, I'm 100% convinced I will buy these again. They just grib soooo good on the ice and even water. Personally I needed a multi-purpose tire. I didn't want to buy two sets of tires because that gets expensive. I needed a tire that digs like a mud tire in the summer and a winter tire that is good in ice and snow. These tires have exceeded my expectations in every way. I'm not sure about studding laws in the states but up here you can stud winter tires and these are studable.

Just don't get stuck, because they DIG.

 

Now, I'm not one to tell anyone to go to walmart or anything, but check out the Goodyear Wrangler Authority.

I had a set on my 2wd '95 F-150 and I live in Northern BC, Canada and they performed very well, for being on a 2wd truck. Now that I have 4x4 in my Dodge, I bought a set and absolutely love them! They're A/T's and are rated for winter, up here.

 

by the way this is what i have

 

Ya I agree with the others, you would get much better traction with better winter rated tires. In snow though its pretty hard not to spin the tires, just gotta get used to whats gonna happen. 4 wheel drive will help accelerate but dont let that fool you into thinking you can brake quicker. I personally dont have any weight in the box of my truck.

 

been eye balling the firestone winterforce UV tires. been very good reviews in the snow.

 

Those look like they would work very well in the snow, good winter tire. Have to take them off in the summer though or they'll burn up pretty quick.

 

I have a set of Goodyear Wrangler SR-As from a 4th gen. They get me around in the snow just fine with no weight in the bed and I'm 2wd with an open diff. But when the roads get snowy/icy I just take my time.

 

Simple and cheapest solution? Put more weight back there. AT tires will get the job done if you are weighted down some in the rear. They won't grip as much as a snow tire but don't drive like you've never driven in snow before and you'll be fine. I have Toyo open country AT and they do fine. During a good winter I'll put 420 lbs of sand tubes in the bed and I do even better. Where I'm at we are lacking snow big time this year. It sucks.

 

Want some of mine? We seem to have plenty.....

 

They're garbage. I had them. Took them off after 6 weeks. Didn't want to go, then didn't want to stop. In 2wd on dry pavement they'd spin like crazy. Put my 3/4 bald Terra Grapplers back on and had better traction.But then this is just my experience and opinion, so take it as you like.
