Snow tires?

Who likes the snow? And what tires have you found that do the best?

i run a set of BFG all terrains on my daily driver and love them. they have not got me stuck on the road nor off roading in the snow. this will be my fourth winter on the same set so we'll see how they work this year. I have about 30,000 miles on them and I think they should do fine.

My buddy runs the XTerrains and he didn't like them at first but then he got ahold of them with the hot knife and now they work prety good.

how did he groove them? did he do it for rocks, mud, snow or what was intent. I have not run the tires, but I thought they looked like they would be a great all around tire.

He plays in just about everything, mostly rocks and trails. He opened up the tread pattern little more and added a bunch of angled notches going the other direction.

Well I picked up a set of 15"x10" chrome steelies w/2.50 back spacing lastnight for $150. I think these will work allright for my 38"x15.50"x15" TSL's.
