I like the tires on my truck. Although sometimes they make me feel a little too comfortable.

Im gonna need a new set of tires in a little while as well. I think im gonna go with the goodyear dura tracs this time around. A buddy of mine can get me a hell of a good deal on another set of toyo open country m/t's so I might save some cash and do them again.

Ive heard ok things about the yoko's as well.

I`m looking for good winter tires since I don`t believe that all season tires aren`t the greatest for winter driving on snow and ice.

What sized tires are you looking for Morris? Winter tires are alot tougher to find, alot less selection in 17 inch+ for some reason, specially 8 or 10 ply rated.

Hey Morris, look at the Nokian Hakkapeliita WR G2 AW at Kal tire. I put these on my wife's freestar and she loves them. there a little pricy at about $225 each but these are the only true ALL WEATHER not all season tire. they also have a 100000km tread life. it is if they cut a winter and summer tire in half and put them together,
Nokian WRG2id=11899&group=1.01.02&name=Nokian+WRG2action=find Man2&manufacturer=Nokian&tirename=Hakkapeliita+WR+ G2+AW&season=Regular&gclid=CIn-4Jisuq0CFQQCQAodxDX3BQ[/url]

Hi Steve, how are you doing, no fresh snow in your neck of the woods yet?
I`m looking for tires for my 98 Ranger, 15'' or it I can find mags from a newer Ranger I wouldn`t mind going to 16''.
Thanks Dean, I like the good grip on snow and icy roads but for my low usage Ranger they would be abit too pricey. I normally put on only about 2-3,000 kms yearly. What size did you put on the Freestar?
