OEM tires. It snowed about 3 inches here in Baltimore a few days ago and it was the first I had gone thru in the PM. The main roads were slushy and I did fine. The secondary roads and developments that were not plowed is were I had problems. I got stuck 2 times on the way to my first job and was able to dig out. After my first job I couldn't even get going out of the development on a flat surface. I had to get chained out with a 4 wd. I am pulling a lot of weight in my box tho. I'll have to look into better tires.N ightmare how?
OEM tires or good winter threaded tires? Makes a huge difference.
The OEM Vanco's are not designed for or anything near to what you want in a winter tire. It's just the way it is. They are a hard compound and a highway tread pattern. They'll continue to make you suffer until you get a winter tire. Then you'll see how nice a PM will handle in the snow...OEM tires.
