    Ok, so here is the thing.... all things have limits. Your job as the hooman behind the wheel, is to gauge what those limits are and operate safely within them. You could be driving in a snow storm with 30 year old bald tires with rubber that is as hard as concrete, and there is nothing unsafe about it as long as you drive within the limits of what amount of force those tires can deliver to the road.

    Equipment can NEVER be at fault. Only people can be, and it is your responsibility to be aware of what is and is not possible given the equipment you have (and its condition), and your skill.

    My suggestion would be to run the tires it has until they are actually worn out, and then think about getting something better. FYI: my "factory" tires wore down to nothing in about 40,000 km.

    Learn how to drive safely. Clear/clean your windows, reduce speed when visibility is poor, pay attention to road conditions. Remember, the laws of physics still apply to you.....

    - ICON UCAs, BP51/Kings, SCS wheels, 285s, Leer 100XR canopy. Greenlane aluminum winch bumper, Smittybilt X20 winch. Trying Falken AT3w now, Really like BF KO2s.
    Black ice will be tricky for everyone. If you have crappy tires don't wait till they are crappier to change them. Tons of people on TW swap out thier tires just because they want to try something different.
    What do you plan on doing with your truck? Off-roading ? Stick to pavement?
