Hi my truck has the Michelin ltx at2 here and I live in ne Ohio snow belt area and I usually have to drive on unplowed roads for work and was wondering how the Michelin ltx at2 that came with my truck are? They are 275 65 20. They slip easily in the rain so I suspect they might suck in snow n ice but wanted to hear from you guys. I've read online about them and some reviews are terrible and say it's certain death but some people actually recommend them for winter. The tundra forums have guys encouraging people to buy them for snow. Not sure if they just want to see people in the ditch or what.

If they are bad please list some alternatives for me please with same exact size and they can't be noisy. I'll take my chances with them before switching to a noisy tire thanks in advance.

they are a great tire. stiff sidewall for handling and towing, good tread compound for smooth, quiet ride. They do well in ice, ok in snow. The biggest issue in snow is stopping. Tread life is about the best there is. We run them on our entire fleet...in canada.

I take this statement back. I misread and thought it said ltx m/s.

A/Ts are ABSOLUTE CHIT. I wouldn't give them to my worst enemy.

Daily driving nothing crazy but I'm not on major route so roads around me don't get plowed all the time

I liked those tires. My last three duraturds came stock with them. Towing daily they lasted 40-50k.

Unless you guys are referencing a different tire.
