    Looks perfectly wide to me, not scratchy whatsoever.

    I've only ran 3 truck tires.
    BFG AT
    GY Wrangler AT
    Yoko Geo X-AT.

    I was looking at Kenda's but seen most running K02's....that's what brought me to the Yoko's, which are allegedly better than K02 in snow...
    When these go I think I'll be giving in and giving those Kenda's a spin...
    So far the BFG AT's were the best of 3 in the snow. Ran those plenty of years without weight. The Wranglers were alright when new but still preferred weight with those.

    Found some streets that were not plowed yet and messed around in 2WD and I am pleased with the Falken Wildpeak AT3W.

    They gave us a snow day. Didn't start snowing until 4:30. Serious about it now... I went and played in the Penokees. Found several new trails that I had not previously been on. 4 inches or so of new snow. Just enough to make it constantly coming off the trees that made for some challenging visual situations. First ever switchback in these "mountains"! Had to take a substantial back track and loop around because of a creek I was unwilling to try-the picture doesn't show that it was about 20" deep below the ice (that I broke through.) Rather than get stuck, I backed out (so mature of me!) tree down, but the little ATV's had a go around. Bit tight for the Taco, but 35's go right up and over big logs!

    The trails were VERY tight and scratchy. Not sure many here would have approved.

    Serious FUN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Is that the entrance up to Mount Whittlesey by chance?
    I bet that was boring with those cheat code 35's :mudding:

    Decided to try a red dot for the EDC. Another excuse for range time.
