Q: nosey wrote i put pathfinder all terrain 265/75-16s discount tire house brand on my 99 ram 2500 quad cab diesel. i used to use pathfinders. very good tread design for snow and mud. the problem with them is short tread life. typically 35-40k. theyll last a bit longer but traction isnt so good past 35k. theyre cheaper than most though! .

in response to miles s post. i thought everyone should know chris thompson wrote i knew there was a reason i live in south ga....lol its gotta be to avoid the cold slippery stuff. yea thats it... ya but in the humid hot south there are things i love here in az that baffle people from the south. things like mister systems on patios swamp coolers and drying clothes outside!! how do you do it i was just in fl with 90f and 80% humidity and lemme tell ya 110f and 10% humidity in phoenix is preferable!! no doubt there. my a/c has been working overtime for the past couple of months and i have the power bills to prove it. we have been seeing 100+ with high humidity recently let off thank god!!! the humidity puts a real load on the house a/c. and my wife always complains about how much slower the cab of the truck is to cool when its hot then i remind her that it has what twice the cab volume of her liberty *snicker* and that shes 9 months pregnant....we are going to be having the baby this week ill post some pics on photobucket for those that might be interested i like it out phoenix way but its too far from family they are all here in the south east so id prefer to stay here or close but would like a break from the humidity. i have some family thats in the mid west and have been out visiting them during the summers in the past and the dry heat is much better than this humid heat ill give ya that. family on my moms side her uncles & aunts oh yea that damp cold thatll be here in a few months will make me wish it was summer again as i dont like being chilled to the bone like that. if it wasnt for the snow and ice up north id almost move up there during the winter to have a dryer cold but in my opinion all snow and ice are good for is tearing up otherwise perfectly good vehicles. in the even we get any down here witch happens what once every 10 years i just stick the trucks in the garage and hang out at the house for a few days. remember the tearing up trucks besides whens the last time you seen a ga driver in snow if ya havent count yourself lucky you would probably be scared to death!!!! -- chris im moving south. i will get to play in the snow for about five months. more if i go to banff every so often. i had michelin m&s s before on my 92 dakota. they were pretty good on all types of snow up here. i have had goodrich before and i do like them better except for the rotten tread life. oh well we had snow when we were camping last weekend. none in the city though and none expected any time soon. i know i will get to use the 4x4 far too much pretty soon. i would love to be able to complain about the humidity. .
