    Did a search before this post but didn’t see anybody posting their experience with them hands on . I know they ain’t 3 peak show rates and the siping maybe not enough . Maybe just maybe I’m wrong and they do decent

    I'd be curious to know as well. Tires like the Nitto Ridge Grappler and Cooper Rugged Trek aren't 3PMSF rated either, but depending on who you talk to, do "well" in snow. I know I've seen quite a few - possibly even to be considered a plethora - of trucks and SUV's with ridge grapplers on them that last few years.

    And that’s where I’m stuck . I get mixed reports of how they do . I’m thinking of trying but I’d hate to regret it

    what did you decide? currently looking to pick up a set of recons vs. wildpeaks. living in the midwest snow rating is somewhat important.

    I got the recons...no idea on snow yet but love them. Super quiet on the road....the tread looks pretty adequate for snow although not a true indicator I realize.
