Buying new tires
Spent the day visiting several local tire shops...I am pretty tight entering my garage, so looking to probably stay stock size 265/70/R17. One shop swore by Firestones (Transforce). Another store ...

If you truly want only the winter type tires, like a bridgeston blizzak or equal. I am only recalling two that work for trucks. Bridgestones WInter Dueler, altho it may be called something else by now, and the Cooper one mentioned.
If you want a year around traction tire that will work quite well in snow, THEN the M55 is 2nd to none, and I would bet every bit as good as the Winter Dueler which I have run on an AWD safari van. My dually has them on the rear only, and I have gone places I should not have in rwd with the factory GM locker. I do need 4wd upon occasion.......but the snow traction is real decent! I am also NOT studded, altho it is legal where I am to have metal studs. I prefer to chain up if it is that bad out!
