[QUOTE="alstick, post: 1527354, member: 18268"] I'm a pretty die hard snow wheeler and anything can almost work but there is no replacement for displacement -the biggest you can stuff and the widest you can install the widest rim you can manage. Oh and groove the crap out of them. Also your rounded off rock tires will not work like a lug with nice straight edges. I keep a set of 44 Rockers now for the snow but I use to run cut 46 Claws, I can't manage to stuff the 46s under my current rig. I've had good snow wheeling success with grooved Krawlers as well, again got ones with square edges to the lugs. Also tires with more lugs than less you need cutting edges to grab the snow and not dig. That's why Claws works so well in the snow and why I picked Rockers over Boggers in the 44 inch size. Oh and 1-3 PSI max. I ran these 38.5 Rockers for a snow season. Not a very tall 38 but fat you can see my excessive grooving. I have no shots of my TJ on the 44s [URL=http://smg.photobucket.com/user/alstick/media/TJ%20pics/FirstSnowA-Hilton.jpg.html][IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v511/alstick/TJ%20pics/FirstSnowA-Hilton.jpg[/IMG][/URL] [URL=http://smg.photobucket.com/user/alstick/media/TJ%20pics/TJonpitbulls.jpg.html][IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v511/alstick/TJ%20pics/TJonpitbulls.jpg[/IMG][/URL] [URL=http://smg.photobucket.com/user/alstick/media/grizzly%20snow%20run/grizzly10.jpg.html][IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v511/alstick/grizzly%20snow%20run/grizzly10.jpg[/IMG][/URL] My old rig - about 4 feet of snow right here - notice its on top not sunk to the axles.
