I call BS. Winter tires are very noticeably better in snow and ice than 3PMSF all terrains. If you actually think your ATs are better, maybe it’s endowment effect. I have a 4Runner with 3PMSF all terrains and have also had a Subaru Outback and a Toyota Prius with winter tires. Winter tires beat the all terrains on winter pavement any day.I've never put snow tires on any of my trucks, but have put them on my wife's car and my daughter's car for the winter. I'm much more comfortable in my trucks with AT's in 4wd than the cars with snow tires. The cars will still slide all over the place even with snow tires, including my wife's AWD Subaru. And in a general sense, we don't get enough snow through the winter for me to justify putting snow tires on my trucks.
Interesting - so you’re off-road with Blizzak tires in the winter? The grip from winter rubber is better than a 3PMSF rubber with all-terrain tread? Don’t you worry about durability / puncture resistance with the Blizzak tires off pavement?I have the AT4 and my Blizzaks destroy them.
That says something since the AT4 is actually a great tire in the snow.
