You need to compare a snow rated 3 peak AT tire to a dedicated snow tire. Ice, Deep snow, packed snow.

My 05 Z71 has brand new Blizzak dmv2 snow tires on it and she is a ripper. Last week when the sub 0 blizzard hit I could hardly tell how bad the roads were, I had great traction in stops and turns, but especially taking off from a dig. My 0-60 time was maybe 1 second slower than optimal conditions. Meanwhile traffic all around me was struggling with some going 10mph with hazards on trying not to slide off the road. The fast lane wasn't being driven on by anybody because it had more snow so I had a nice commute that day. Passed a bunch of 4x4 trucks going slow too, probably the same people that say they never needed snow tires in 30 years of winter driving.

[@onefastboi14]

I’ve got some Michelin X Ice Snow tires and the performance has been amazing. Drove around Yellowstone, Cooke city Montana, as well as Wyoming yesterday where they had just got a lot of snow and ice and my RWD Jag did amazing! Never had any traction problems even when driving over snow and ice on the interstate. Ended up passing quite a few different SUV’s and trucks with what I presume were all seasons. Ik the Blizzak’s are a good tire too. Good snow tires definitely make a big difference and anyone that says otherwise is full of it.

[@cmawhz]

@@onefastboi14 The X ice tires are amazing, I have installed many sets and they were my first pick but got half off the blizzaks through work discounts. Hard to go wrong with either though, they are both top of the line and such a game changer when the weather hits. About a decade ago when I was a young dumb kid driving a fwd open diff car, I really struggled driving in bad conditions and hated it. Changing lanes, turning, braking, getting stuck almost daily. Just driving straight was a challenge and terrifying. Then I picked up some Altimax Arctics and I was ripping down unplowed roads at 90mph without any fear of losing control (young and dumb). Changed my winter driving experience entirely and saved my ass from other drivers many times.

[@onefastboi14]

@@cmawhz can’t beat half off with a work discount. They definitely are a game changer when the weather goes bad. I’ve driven around when it snowed 12+ inches in Fort Collins and ended up helping folks get unstuck. Was a lot of fun. Certainly understand that. I’ve driven around in my Accord when it snowed and it wasn’t the best experience as I had all seasons “Michelin”. Imagine it’d be a lot better with some winter tires. Don’t live in an area we’re we get snow a lot “ Houston Tx” but I do travel up north often enough I’ve got a set of winter tires.

[@zonacrs]

Fun stuff TFL. How about a 3 peak rated AT tire snow shootout?????

[@YouDontKnow-that]

And then WINTER tires vs 3-Peak Rated AT's on both deep snow and ice. In DEEP snow, I predict AT's. On ice, I'd say winter tires.

[@skruface]

I have a 2011 Ram 1500 that I have owned since new. First 2 upgrades I did was tires (because those stock SR-A's are trash in snow and ice - I'm Canadian, so I see snow and ice for 5 months a year) and the headlight bulbs. Ran through 2 sets of KO2s that were good for a combined 220,000km, and just put on a set of Maxxis RAZRs because I got an insane deal on them. For the headlights, I went with 55w HIDs in the 6000k (white) range. Just those two upgrades made my truck much more enjoyable to drive on both the highway and on logging trails.

[@bluceree7312]

12:27 vs 13:39 Roman looked faster coming down before braking at the fence. Remember, odometers are not accurate, especially at low speeds.

[@capachin]

Just a couple of comments. The RMA states that a 3 peak rated tire must have a 10% increase in traction over a non-3peak rated M&S, not much. I have driven many AT and MT tires in the snow (lived in New England= lots of snow) and the performance varies greatly (M/T's are terrible). The Hankook AT-M is not rated very high in snow traction compared to other AT's. My new PRO-4X came with the Hankook's I swapped them out for Wildpeak AT3W's and got a noticeable increase in snow traction. My son runs TOYO A/T III's and they have better traction than the AT3W's. I run the BFG TA KO2's on my Earthcruiser and they also perform very well however I have a Torsen front dif and a factory FUSO limited slip rear dif that adds greatly to the snow performance. I love your work, Thank You!

[@ALMX5DP]

I kinda feel ≥10% is a decent gain.

[@garys2157]

Last year on my 2016 F150 I replaced my original Dynapro atm with atm2, but the Atm2 were a retail tire not factory and were three peak tires, I thought they were noticeably better in snow, fuel economy may have dropt 1%, a couple of months ago I got a 2022 F150 with Atm2 from the factory, the tires are visually different looking, and don't work as good as the replacements I had for my 2016.

[@WW-wf8tu]

Since you have had the ranch, this is what I expect to see. A controlled environment for your shenanigans. Don't understand why you feel it is better testing on that other hill that was finally proved to be a bad place for it today.(in this video) This is where it should happen. IMO. No traffic noise or distractions. Plus you get the convenience of your house/barn for breaks and dry location for set ups.

[@clay282]

Those must be magical Wrangler SRA's because I've been stuck on wet grass with them. I'm really shocked about the Dynapro's not having anymore traction than they did. A lot of people put All Terrains on, for the traction improvement. Those wouldn't be worth upgrading.

[@DangaRanga]

Never been a fan of Hankook AT's. Big Cooper AT3 fan. and the amount of times i had to use my old ranger on AT3's to drag my fathers silverado on Hankook AT's out of mud/snow/soggy grass proved all i needed to see lol The hankooks even with wheel speed just couldnt shed mud/snow to save their lives and would just pack up and get stuck. Seeing them perform on par with an all season makes sense. Go BFG or Cooper if you want a decent AT that'll last a long time as well

[@willmiller9631]

@CheekyB I love Hankook dynapro at2 in snow. I have a 1993 gmc 3500 2wd dually extended cab with them and got around perfectly fine with them. I was impressed.

Seeing you blasting down the road made me realize how much traction control and ABS helps. You should do some videos in an older truck, like an 80s F-150 or Chevy C/K. Think it’d be fun :)

[@waggitnshaggit6592]

First thing you do when offroad or in deep snow is shut it all off or you get stuck.ABS can make it sketchy at times off road especially if bumpy.On road its mandated effects look good but also create no skill inattentive drivers.

@@waggitnshaggit6592 I was thinking more in the early part of the video where they're bombing down the road. Looked like they were moving pretty quickly.

Golden opportunity for a Tire manufacturer to sponsor some videos! Michelin? Firestone? BFG? Looks like that Ram needs better tires. Something 🏔❄ approved! Prove KO2's are better BFG!

[@zonacrs]

I've had both KO2's and Wildpeak AT3W's on my former truck. The AT3W's worked surprisingly well in the snow and the KO2's seemed to pack up in the lugs and get harder. Both were 3 peak rated. Interestingly the OEM BFG Rugged Trail TA's worked great in the snow. A little wheel spin would clean out the sipes nicely. I'd love to see TFL do a snow comparison of 3 peak rated AT tires.

[@brbadventurer]

14:40 I am a Canadian that lives in southern British Columbia. I know what it is like to drive in the cold and snowy conditions. I have Cooper Evolution M/T tires that are M&S rated on my WJ but in the cold I can feel they have flat spots until they warm up on the road, it takes a couple hundred yards of rotation before the ride smooths out. On my JKU I have the BFG All Terrain KO that is also a M&S but they don't get the flat spots like the Cooper tires do. BTW I love my Cooper Evolution M/T tires I am not complaining about them.

[@slmjake]

All stock pickup trucks used to be low to the ground. And they had at least a 6 5 foot bed and low bed rails. You could use them for work. Not any more.

[@alexanderrogge]

Marching Band Steps are a universal measuring tool of the football field. Three Season Tires are nice until the temperature hits freezing, and then they start sliding; Four Wheel Drive helps the car to accelerate, but steering and stopping can be dangerously-problematic, especially when you're driving in a snow and ice storm after a band night, a harrowing experience made worse by the fact that almost nobody else has Winter Tires.

I do think stubby would be awesome as the new rescue rig. 37-38" Duratracs, 4" lift, heavy duty bumper with a winch, heavy duty front end parts. Regear it to 4.88's. That short wheelbase would be great. Air lockers front and rear and good skid plates. If the front end breaks do a solid axle swap. Would make some great content...

[@TFLtruck]

Very true!

[@MrSvnwolves]

But a true winter tire is a softer compound when cold a softer compound will have a larger footprint and will outperform any all season. yes the tech Ford has is great but Your studded tires without studs will beat tech. They make money on videos so they make it entertaining

[@James-kd2cm]

I was expecting the Ram to slide a lot further than it did. That looked like a lot of fun.

[@wompa70]

Your “off the cuff” comment at the end really explained what snow rating means. A different compound so the tires don’t get hard in the cold. Which means they’re good even if you don’t get snow; just cold temperatures.

[@donaldthomas5852]

Enjoy watching the video. I always sorta enjoy driving in the snow. Years ago I had a 1988 Chevy S-10 2wd 4cly automatic I put some weight in the back of that truck it go about anywhere , once we had a snow and ice there was a hill nobody was going up 4 vehicles stopped at the bottom could not make it up two of them were 2wd pickups . I drove right up it with my S-10. Of course 4wd’s are better. Today I wouldn’t be cought without a 4wd pickup

I'd love to see another mpg test between the all season tires on the ram compared to some more aggressive all terrain tires.

[@MrSvnwolves]

Weight of the tires will make a bigger impact. A set of 33s can weight from 40s to 60s lbs. A heavier tires takes more power to turn and will lower mpg.

[@matt_balomenos]

@Dan W that's true. I'd still like to see it. I haven't seen someone make a nice video on the mpg difference between the two. I just think it'd be nice before I make the switch to something tougher than than stock tires that came on my 21 ranger

[@waggitnshaggit6592]

for what its worth I always seem to drop 2mpg when I put on larger Mud Terrains and thats probably the weight and rolling resistance

[@formerice]

The SRA's are very good for mpg's with my Ecodiesel. Swapped to GY Trailrunners, better traction but maybe lost a mpg.

[@kingelvis7035]

I put Cooper AT3 snow rated on Ford STX 20x8.5" wheels on my 2wd F150 and took about a 20% hit in gas mileage vs. the Firestone TRX factory issue tires on 17x7.5" stock alloy wheels.

Looks like at about 13:45 the front bumper is pushing snow in front of the tires. Perhaps that is the main driver? What is the difference in the ground clearance between the two?

[@yamajammer76]

The one thing that really helps the Ranger in snow from experience is if you have an FX4 or a Tremor the air deflector under the bumper is deleted and replaced with a skid plate. You get a lot less front drag in deeper snow.

[@kcp7042]

Can you guys take stubby and run those same tests empty vs with added weight? A lot of us add sand bags to our trucks in the winter so they “perform better”. You could show how much it helps.

3PMS only needs to be 10% better at stopping in snow to earn that rating. So not a huge difference.

Weight distribution is a huge factor as well...a pickup even 4WD don't even compare to an SUV type vehicle because unless your buddy had the bed of his truck loaded down, there's hardly any weight in the back of a truck VS an SUV with more evenly distributed weight.

[@jasongarnish]

There's tons I hate about the HRV but it's been eating up the deep snow and very icy conditions like a champ. I also know most of my friends aren't very impressed with the Dodge trucks in winter. I'm against running a truck loaded just for performance and my 2013 Tacoma was also exceptional in deep snow. I've been running snow tires for a solid 20 years now and they are the key up here in Canada. Some provinces snow tires are mandatory in the winter and you get an insurance discount if you have a set. I even have them for my BRZ but it never goes out in the winter.

With all that beautiful snow,,,,, you now know why Adolph chose Colorado!

[@Bshwag]

[@cristiannunez5228]

Should do a/t vs m/t

[@Tomekkplk]

A/t vs m/t vs dedicated snow tire

[@christophercavalier6683]

Yes
