Tire Rack ratings show M/S2 better in snow. Looking at the tread, I'm surprised. I've narrowed down my choice to these two tires. 95% of my driving will be on established roads. Even when I'm off road hunting, I avoid anything that the 4wd will not easily get through...so mud is not in the decision equation.
However, while I want an all season tire, snow performance is a must. We live 4 miles from the closest "main" road that is reliably cleared of snow. My truck must be able to make it to that road in most snows.
If you've had either of these tires, please share your snow experiences. I would normally go off the rankings, but am just shocked that M/S are ranking better by the looks of their "highway" tread.
