Let's talk tires ( again!)

Not sure I need an AT more so than a Mud and Snow tire. Been using the Michelin M//S up too this point. But would like just a little more traction while off road deer hunting, moving around fields with some good hills involved.
 
Well went with a less aggressive tire and basically the stock tire look that’s a little upgraded version.
Discount Tire offered a military discount as well as a $80 discount if ordered online. Time will tell if this is going to be a good fit for me, but according to the reviews it should be.

The right rear had a slow leak to it. It would lose 2-3 psi in a week. Watching the kid struggle to break the bead off the rim I can see why. He needed the shop foreman too step in and get it done. They were both shaking their heads on the amount of effort they needed too do it.
 
One buddy of mine didn't like them for snow plowing. That was the only negative review I've heard. I'm looking forward to your updates. I think they will treat you well.

I've heard great things in regards to mileage, road noise, comfort in ride. They are rated high for snow but my buddy said they weren't great for plowing. Maybe he is all throttle and no finesse? Remove a heavy plow from the nose of the truck which changes the balance of the truck and maybe they are good in snow? Either way, you should have minimal snow adventures compared to 10 years ago. Worth repeating: I think they'll treat you well. Keep us updated.

It’ll work for the trips to Ohio during deer season and the weather that it brings…
 
For my 2016 Terrain, I just put Michelin replacements & black rims on. I bought the Defender 2, which is rated for 80k. .The stock Mich's were rated for 50 & I had 60k before noticing a ride difference on them. Not bad for 9 yrs. I always wanted black rims & the originals started having paint peel off, so it was a great excuse to change out.....
