Chris - Try either the Bridgestone Blizzaks or Winter Duellers. I've also
heard good things about the Michelin Arctic Alpin, but I'm not sure if they
come in the 31" size.

Subject: DML: First Snowfall

Ok it's finally here....Snow. Since I just picked up my truck a week ago
last Friday, this is the first time I've had my truck in the snow. We got
about 6 inches of snow, and I am really disappointed with the Goodyears so
far. I got the 31" X 10.50" - 15" that come with the Tire and Hndling
package. It seems to me that they clog up with snow very easily and holds
the snow in, making turning damn difficult. Seriously considering trading in
the tires while they are still new (1000Km on them). What recommendations do
you all have? I had BFG A/T before on an "ahem" Ranger, and they seemed to
work well. Has anyone had a better experience with tires other than BFG's?

Thanks in advance!
