Yes sir, sure is. I'm @ 395N & Red Rock Rd. I drove out Red Rock Rd last year to a house up on the hill, drifts like those in your pic, same kinda backdrop. He didn't have a 4WD & needed to get 4 BIG boxes to the trucking company.



He's got a steep road, steeper than those in your pics. I was really happy with the LTX M/S performance. No problems. I'm super happy with them on the road too. Our strong winds w/ice & all the conditions, no slipping.



The only other tire I've had that I felt this confident with was the BFG All Terrain T/A. Their price went to the moon ... nuff of that. I've been buying the 265s from Costco. Now they're about $180 or $190. I've also had the 235s in the LTX M/S. Work great on these 8" rims too.



I'm going to try the BFG Commercial T/A in 235s next time.

Forrest, I was running the BFG 285-70 17 AT's. Worked real well when the snow was fresh. Was pushing snow half way up the front grill... ... had chains on the rear at that point to rescue a neighbor. Sounds like you did the same. Wonder if we get hammered again... . I now have a rear blower from my tractor... we were 1/4 mile to where they think about plowing. Hammer on !
