bm02tj Report post Posted August 11, 2017 I found a good tire that will work well for a drive tire and be smooth but have snow and Ice traction with out hurting your mileage Conti Hybrid HD3 other than I was told they are special order 6 to 8 weeks Will work on getting a set and let every one know how it worked out If any one knows a Continental dealer and ask about this tire would help me get over the cost ???

manholt Report post Posted August 11, 2017 Quote Ice, snow, mud, grass and sand, I leave to my toad. Last time Bill saw snow & ice, was near Grand Canyon after Chandler, AZ Rally! I was there also, but in the Jeep. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wildebill308 Report post Posted August 11, 2017 The snow was off the road at the Canyon but later in Amarillo I did stay parked for a couple days because of road conditions. No it isn't my coach as I didn't go out to take pictures of my coach. Keep in mind this was 30 May. Bill Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He basically said to go with the all position /steer tiers that are listed as in the program like the CONTINENTAL 275/70R22.5, HSR2 SA or the Coach HA3. As an aside he didn't think he could get the FMCA discount on the Conti Hybrid HD3. So now you know what one dealer thought. Bill Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
