So obviously the Sasquatch wheels and tires look cool, like really cool. But how will they handle the cold?
Here in Minnesota it's frozen a good 7 months out of the year, and we get a lot of ice and snow. Some of drivers here seem to think AWD makes them invincible on the road, but I see a lot of AWD crossovers in the ditch - nothing is a substitute for a good set of snow tires. But I've never heard of 35" snow tires - does such a thing exist?
I'm wondering if it's more sensible to stay at the lower wheel sizes, where it's more possible to find snow tires. Am I overthinking this? Or will the MT tires be able to handle snow okay?
Hey man, as someone else living in Minnesota, you know how the roads get.. our main concern is not deep snow.. its hardpacked snow and ice with the occasional dump of fresh powder. Im going to echo a few comments made earlier here and say that the 33" BFG K02 AT tire with the 3 peaks / winter snowflake are probably one of the absolute best all around tires ever made. They got me through many many years up in the mountains of Oregon and Idaho.
That being said, nothing is better than a dedicated winter tire. Studded tires are not allowed in our state, so either the BFG's listed above or some Nokians are your best bet.
