Tire Chains

[timgco]

I know this has been discussed before and I have read the threads. I have relocated my H2 to a recently purchased place in the mountains of Colorado. I am currently running 37" procomp xterrains and am wondering about the need for chains. When I took the H2 out there last month there was some snow but not a great deal of it, however the road next to my place had quite a bit that would thaw then refreeze and I had some trouble getting up this road and was sliding around alot. I ended up coming down a different way (not so steep)because I was sure I would just slide all the way down. Does anyone have any ideas whether chains or cables or siping or all three. If so do I need to go back to stock tires? I am going back out there the day after Christmas and would like to be properly prepared.

Thanks,

1st and most importantly, can I have a set of keys to your place by the ski resorts?

Get some chains! I have not found a good set for 37's yet, but you can get them.
No matter what type of tires, you will slide on the packed snow and ice. Also the last thing you want is to drive up here and get stuck (I'm assuming you drive the truck here from FL).

There are many times that there are chain restrictions and you will need them to drive jsut on the main roads.

do a search for these under the FIND button and you should FIND what you need.
Good luck.
