[QUOTE="Badgertits, post: 1718094, member: 31322"] I’d consider getting set of chains- even if you don’t need em just to have in bed should you need em, I’d consider further getting a dedicated set of snow tires- although I know that’s not everyone’s cup of tea or in their budget (then again if you can afford a Raptor you better be able to afford an extra set of wheels/tires or somethings wrong) The raptor is very capable in the snow, the wide AT tires however….are not ideal. They’re OK. I don’t wanna get into long *** discussion on this again on this forum b/c people are argumentative- but I always put it this way: the delta between performance summer tires & drag radials is narrower than the delta between “all season” or “all terrain” tires & dedicated snow tires. That widens even further if we are talking studded snow tires. In fact- the only other tire I personally have had experience w/ that truly lives up to its claims/intent of purpose would be a DR - all season ain’t all season all terrain ain’t all terrain & oversized mud terrain/MT will put ya in a ditch quicker than a fleet/rental vehicle “all terrain/all season” when it comes to driving in the winter weather in a Raptor. Flame me all ya want- I’ll be doing 70 in a blizzard passing dump truck plows in 4h like boss. [/QUOTE]
