Well after this weekends light snow dusting, and nearly putting my truck in the ditch. I broke down and bought a new set of tires. The oem hankook P235/70 R17 were pitiful! With only 36k miles on them they were shot. So I went to my tire guy "Pope's Tire", and he said try these. I decided to put on P265/70R17, and what a big difference. It actually feels like there is rubber touching the pavement. Doug said that he really likes the nexen tires, and that michelin has a controlling interest in them. The price was the best part $636.00 mounted and balanced, taxes, tags, doc fees,etc...
