Subject: winter tire size.
IP: Logged

Message:
I'm doing some research on tires and tire sizes for this up coming winter. What tire size would work best on a 16" stock rim? I'm looking for snow traction. I heard narrower is better for the snow. I currently have 265/70/r16 on my 2003 4x4. I was thinking of going to 245/75/r16. Any suggestions?

Dude,
You already have a 4x4, why do you need any more traction?

Because wide tires tend to float in the slippery stuff. That sounds like a good size; I run 235-75R15 in the winter.

Lead, follow, or get out of the way

Thankyou Kowalski. The reason i need more traction is because i work at a place that never closes no matter how bad the weather.
