Good Winter 35" Tires, Please Help...
I was wondering if you guys can help me out a litttle with choosing a good winter 35" tire. I'm looking for a 35x12.50x17 for winter. I love the BFG All Terrain KO's I have but they don't make a 35" tire with raised white lettering??? I'm old school and I really like the white lettering but only by BFG. I want to try something else (Non-raised white lettering) besides a BFG for the winter as I have always ram BFG All Terrain KO's.. Thanks guys...

I know a little old manish but Goodyear Wrangler Silent Armor tires. It was either those or the BFG's for winters for me. I went with the BFG's, but both are highly rated for snow/ice grip!!!

I had really good luck with Dunlop Radiam Mud Rovers, with the treads that were siped.
Discount Tire siped all 4 tires for about $50, and it helped out greatly.
Especially in deep snow, the tires did awesome!
I think that with any tire you decide on buying, have the treads siped, you will love it!

I found the Trxus MT's from Interco to be ideal. BFGs and General AT's are good for thin snow and ice, (as well as tires like blizzaks) but as soon as there is some depth to it and you need to dig, they start to not be as good.
The only negative to the Trxus MT's I found was soft rubber compound that leads to short wear life... but then again it is that soft compound that helps on the ice.

Finding a good winter tire in a 35" size is really rough. Tire selection in a smaller size is much, much better.

I'll let ya know how the new BFG KM2's handle snow in a few months. The older style Mud T/A's in a 35" that I had on my old truck handled great in anything, snow slush, dusting on a slick road, deepest I had them in was 14" and they plowed right through. But most important thing about a snow tire is the ability to stop your rig, the BFG Muds were great at that too.
