18’’ or 20’’ for winter?

[jptruck]

I’m giving it a shot this winter with the Falken wildpeaks. Ask me how it worked out next spring!

For reference I ski ~50 days up the #2 sketchiest road.

(It’s not actually that sketchy 99% of the time, but it was funny to see it in an article)

Red Mountain pass into Silverton should be #1 on that list, easy.

Get thyself some dedicated snow tires. The difference is large on stopping power and traction.

I have Blizzaks on my RAV4 and have been driving winter tires seasonally most of my life. Sorry for the lack of context on my other post. I’m going to try this winter with the wildpeaks on the cruiser to see how they actually manage my winter conditions. A lot of folks around here (mountain west) seem to do fine with AT tires year round on far less capable trucks. So we’ll see! I do love me my Blizzaks though.

Ask me how it worked out next spring!

I am going with the Wildpeaks on my LC with 20’s. I had these tires on my Grand Cherokee and they were lights out in many deep snowy Vermont winters.

I just bought some LCLC take offs with original sensors in them. I have read that our vehicles can store two sets of TPMS codes so I guess I will find out if that is true or not.

I just put on a new set of 18’ rims (bought from a forum member) with Toyo Observer winter tires (got a good deal through Toyota). I had my dealership install and balance the new tires, and program the new TPMS. Paid $160+taxes and waited 3hrs… They confirmed that there are now 2 sets of IDs stored in the system, so from now on I should be able to just swap wheels myself and select the TPMS set from the onboard system. Will keep you posted.
