The first snow fall here, I almost had a pretty nasty wreck. The stock tires are horrible, I mean really, really bad on snow and ice. Then I almost lost it again limping the vehicle to the dealership to get winter rims and tires installed. I installed the 298M rims w/ continentals. Awesome setup this thing plows through the snow like amazing now. And I think the 298M's are actually nicer than the stock rims.
