    Yep those are the 37s. I love them so far. I made it about 3 miles with 2.5-3.5 feet of fresh snow. At the top you couldn't even see the tires but i didn't take any pictures.

    That looks like it was fun. Have you ever put chains on that thing?

    I don't have the clearance for chains with the 37s. Unless you have low low gears you usually just dig down in snow that deep.

    I can only imagine how expensive chains for a 37" tire would be

    Those are some beautiful pictures, perfect blend of serenity and automotive badassnes. Where are you at, with all that fresh powder? Your location says Auburn, but I know there aren't any mountains like that close by. :jellydance:

    I actually have chains that I used on my 35's. I need to add one more link to them and they'll fit the 37's but I can barely stuff the 37's without chains as it is. They are pricey though. I think I paid 250 for 4 v-bar chains a few years ago.

    This was in the Snoqualmie area. Tinkham road to be exact. I usually go to the Steven's pass area but it was too far for how late in the day I left. I was surprised no one went up before me since it was already Sunday afternoon. Usually that place is crawling with people on Saturday.

    I have never been up there, looks amazing. I may have to venture up there with you once I get some decent tires and recovery gear and maybe some lockers and 4.10s . That will be a while though (cuz I'm po' white trash)

    Yep. Looks pretty frosty from in town. Heard there's good powder up top from a buddy that was up there yesterday.

    If I hadn't just gotten done detailing/polishing the STi, I would be checking it out myself.
