[QUOTE="JD3020, post: 1426351, member: 373"] I'm looking for some experience on how 19.5's handle in snow or slush. Both towing and running around unloaded. We have a 26ft snowmobile trailer we take to northern Michigan, along with moving skid steers around during snow removal if needed. So its pretty common to be running in 6"+ of snow. Especially up in Michigan where you can hit some roads with damn near 12" of untouched snow during a big storm. We've always had 4wd SRW's or SUV's which get around fine, but never ran a DRW. Reason i ask is we're talking about putting a V-box salt spreader on my F-450 if we get a large commercial lot, and i'm also looking at selling my Jeep and maybe the OBS to get another F-450 that would be my year round truck. My current 450 is a crew cab 2wd/open diff with Firestone steers and aggressive Hercules drive tires. If it were to go out it'd have quite a bit of weight in the bed which i know would help some. And the truck i'm looking at is a crew cab 4wd, with a fiberglass Fontaine bed. Continental steer tires on the front, and drive tires on the rear. It would more than likely get a toolbox and 120gal tank in the bed, but still fairly light on the rear. I'm sure the 2wd with a salt spreader would get around here alright, but just concerned about towing with these tires. [/QUOTE]
