General Grabber HTS vs Firestone Transforce HT
Last night coming home for "up north" we picked up a lag bolt 5 miles from home. It must be at least a 1/2" bolt and talking to a couple of shop it sounds like the tire itself may not be able to be patched.
I did a quick search and didn't find much information regarding the General Grabber HTS tires. I was wondering if anyone has any real world experience with them? Also, any real world experience with the Firestone Transforce HT?
Our Express currently has the Bridgestone V-steel Rib tires, which the performance has actually impressed me (with the exception of deep sand or real muddy conditions) especially in snow considing the "rib" style tread. I am looking for a tire that is going to give me good wet and snow traction and occasional two track usage. I guess that is why I am thinking I can get away with a highway type tire. The current tires with 240# of salt in the back of the van took me everywhere I wanted to in the snow last winter. Considering the tread pattern of these two tires vs the V-steel they should do the same shouldn't they?
Any thoughts or opinions are appreciated.
