Q: mike simmons wrote ive got the michelins ltx a/s on my ram and they are lousy. terrible wet and snow traction and the sidewalls are cracking badly. goodyear has just introduced and excellent heavy truck tire the wrangler silent armor. that will be my tire of choice for my ram in the near future. goodyear makes some good tires. the goodyears wrangler r/s they put on some rams are worthless like the ltx a/s. ive just had such good results from the ltx m/s and cross terrains im hard pressed to go with anything else. my new ram has the ltx a/s so im probably going to have to scrap them this winter. i still like my k-s safari trex. .

marty stewartson wrote good day all i am looking for input on tires for my 01 ram 2500 quad cab truck with a cummins diesel. i am tired of all the tire web sitessalesmen etc and thought i would ask the group which tires you have had the best luck with. most of my driving is highwayrainsnow sometimes deepsome driving through nevada in the summeretc and pull a car trailer a lot.i hated the oem michelins they were crap in the rain and not much better in the snow. i appreciate all the help i have had on previous issues and thought i would try this one..thanks in advance.... the oem michelins are ltx a/s. they have lousy traction in rain and clog up in snow. the ltx m/s are the tires ive ever had for all around driving. they stick like glue in the snow. theyre expensive but last 60k+ easily. if you drive quite a bit in the snow or off road then the ltx a/ts might be worth a look. the a/ts downfall is more road noise and most likely slightly lower mpg. i also like michelins cross terrain but i dont believe they have them in the higher load ratings. i have them on my durango and take it in the snow every winter. interesting my 07 quad ctd came with bf goodrich rugged trail t/a as stock from in canada. i dont know if i should feel short changed or glad. .

oregon wrote quick question what do you guys pay for a case 12 quarts of standard motor oil e.g. 10w-30 about $12 for castrol. went to buy a case tonight. stopped at autozone. they wanted $38. either prices have gone way up or i havent paid attention the last few times i bought oil. o. pay attention to the sunday ads and you wont get screwed so badly. .
