    Look good. I must say it is weird to see the snow though. We still have a couple of months here before we see any of that.

    So far so good. World of difference over my fading Michelin LTX M/S. They were good, but they were turning into racing slicks. :p

    Better pictures that don't suck. Funny enough they came from the same camera phone.

    All told the past 3 days about 3". First ½" was that really light fluffy stuff you'd mistake for cotton fuzz. This morning I woke to find another 2½ of that thick stuff that is perfect for making snowmen or snowballs. Half way through the day it pretty much all turned to slush.

    Truck didn't feel skittish at all, even when I went through a large wet patch at 65mph that I thought would cause me to Hydroplane.

    Nope, just rammed right through it and slowed me down a slight bit. Loving these tires! Having gone from P rated to E I honestly have not noticed my ride being any more harsh than usual. In fact I think it feels better.

    As for the snow, using these tires and looking at the pictures it's like a tank tread. Instead of compressing the snow they roll over it and bite down. I can break the back end if I try, but it's not nearly as easy as with my fading Michelin LTX M/S's.
