Hi everyone,

I have an 06 4.4 with the Sport package, and the 19's w/Diamari's. I live in San Diego, CA and see about negative 3 days of rain a year, but I do enjoy going to the mountain's for skiing in the winter (maybe two trips a season).

I have been doing quite a bit of researching on tires (I exhausted the search button on this site) and I am wondering if these Diamari's can really be that bad? I have not gotten the chance to drive them in anything but sprinkler run off yet so I do not have first hand experience on the slip and slide that everyone talks about.

I will be driving up to go skiing in Lake Tahoe this winter and want to know if I should really be that worried about driving with these tires? It seems that if I was to drive within reason for the conditions they would do ok. Or should I really run out and get a set of winter tires for my wheels?

In my searching it seems that most people lived somewhere where a second set of tires would make sense.

Best,

Andy
