I actually looked at the St Maxx tires as a replacement for the AT3. If I could have found someone to sipe them, I might have put a set on.


I have 2000 ft of elevation change between my home and work and when the roads get icy it's a lot like an Olympic luge run. The heavy, big lug, AT tires turn into skates after a few thousand miles. I really need an all season heavy siped tire that can hold up to a lot of miles. I think these Michelins will.

 

That's on the tire shop.

Technically, "we" are stupid, unknowing consumers laying victim to the mercy of repair facilities. I didn't go to Tire School so they know more than me. No one said boo so as far as i can see...its covered. My 2 cents
