hey everyone, im thinkin of gettin some 35x12.5R17 procomp extreme all terrains for my stock rims, the truck is lifted and all,
i havent heard anything bad about these tires, but i never heard what they were like in the winter time in icy roads...any feedback? thanks guys.

 

I just got mine about 1.5 months ago so I didn't get to use them in much snow. I did get to drive in one snow, about 2 inches on the road and they were very solid. I have had a lot of tires in my days, but these are by far my favorite. You won't regret getting a set.

 

I think you will get several thumbs up on those tires, there are a lot of people here with them and they speak highly of them. Read prev threads, there are plenty of them about tires.

 

I would have gotten a set of that same tire. . .however I got a deal. . I mean steal. . .on some yokohama 315/70/17's

 

yea i read a few and never heard anything bad abnout these tires at all. i was only wonderin im still gunna get them.

 

Worked great this winter. Good traction on snow and slush. As good as can be expected out of any tire on ice. No complaints, worth every penny.

 

I got a set of Cooper STT 265/75 R16 and do rather quite well in the snow too... But as I found out the aggressive tread cost you dear in the MPG department... So I switched back to my stock Michellins and got a good gain in MPG's now...

"It no longer about HP/TQ... It all about MPG and the cost of diesel!"

 

I too have Pro Comps and I really like em. As a matter of fact, I don't think I've ever heard of ANYONE who didn't like their Comps.

 

+1

 

I know others are going to disagree with me, but I saw no change in mpg making the switch to procomp from the michelin stock tires. And that was upsizing from 245/70/17 to 305/65/17. In fact, I just switched back to the michelins to scrub the last of the rubber off of them over the summer and again saw no change... other than my truck now looks funny, I think! All my comparisons are hand calculated and the speedo/odo corrected for tire size.

Now, I know others on here have reported good drops in milage when making tire changes, but considering I do maybe 5% city driving and 95% highway/interstate, I think that the 300rpm drop I got from the bigger tires offset the larger diameter and aggressive tread.
