Trail Terrains poor in the snow

[BAQ717]

Anyone else not impressed with the Trail Terrain’s in the snow? I didn’t realize that the OEM version isn’t three peak certified. I hate to take off perfectly good tires but may look to upgrade to some 33 in. KO3s sooner rather than later.

I agree.... I wasn't planning on switching to different tires but these slide all over the place on the snow/ice.... Definitely not as good as I hoped they would be....

We had a sleet/snowstorm last week, 9 inches. I have a TRD Sport 4WD with the OEM Michelin primacy tires. I wasn't expecting much, but was surprised how well the truck did in 4WD, and even switching to 2WD on some hills. Yeah, there was some slipping there, but immediately went away when switching to 4WD.

Yep, replaced them with Nokian’s.

Nokian Hakkapelitta LT3 studded snows- lighter than stock tires, and are fantastic in the snow. They come in unstudded as well. Was just powering through 7-8" deep stuff, 3-4"slushy crap and over the ice. Very good snow tires.
