We don't get nearly the snow down here (Ann Arbor) that you do in TC, but lots of ice. I just put my Firestone WinterForce UV back on my Tacoma last week, and they amaze me as much as they did last year. I took a big hit in MPG's (from 21-ish with the stock 245/75/16 to 18 or so with the snows which are 265/75/16), but the ride is great, if a bit noisier, and the traction is unbelievable. I have two 40 pound bags of salt in the bed, and have not needed to use 4wd since.

Thanks, my Bridgestone OEM's with 500 miles of use, are like ice skates in 2wd, squirrely as hell. Not too bad in 4wd but find even driving very cautiously on short 1-2 miles trips require 4wd or the a$$ end is kicking out. I last had a set of Goodyear Silent Armors on my 1500 Silverado and those worked fantastic. I just really want a pure set of " snows" to mount up on the OEM wheels for winter use this time. I'm a pretty low-mileage driver so they should last for a couple of winters.
Since I have 17" I'm not too afraid of rubbing......Thanks!

Is the General Grabber AT2 marked with the Mountain and Snow Flake symbol?
