Arguably, the BEST tires for icy conditions.

Have any of y’all used these? If so, what do you think about them? I personally love them.

You know, some years back my XJ was in need of tires one winter and had to drive it in the rain and snow until I could replace them. One day on my way to work I hit a patch of black ice mid corner, the almost completely bald front tires had grip while the rears that had a little more tread on them completely broke loose and the truck tried to swap ends on me. I was almost completely sideways, mid corner, and only in 2wd vs Full Time 4wd (it was a Selec-Trac truck) but still managed to save it.......somehow......

Tires weren't bald but... Hydroplaning on the highway at hwy speed was one of the most refreshing and fart inducing feelings I've ever had.

When the tires I mentioned above were still fairly new, I was heading home from work after a down pour that left part of the road a bit flooded in an area it rarely does, but didn’t realize it was too late. I know I wasn’t making contact, but I was happy I had it in 4wd and was able to power through to the other side! For some reason, that was more of a “clincher” that the black ice incident above, too?!

Yep. Mine wasn't 4wd... was either my '74 Cutlass or my '71 Impala... can't remember which but I was heading out of Columbus Ohio and I hit one that sent me into the longest hydroplane of my life. I was young too so it was all very, um... vivid and "exhilarating" to say the least lol.

Looks like the summer and winter tires were reversed! Now go swap all the wrong air and get them going.

Seasonal Air should be here:
