'82 Westy I need two new tires and would appreciate experienced suggestions. I have two needs which may go beyond average driving (but then again maybe not, for this group). Snow--I live in western Colorado and it snows several times a year here in the valleys. I may even need to cross the passes in winter on rare occasions Rock roads--In summer I love to camp as far up the forest service roads as my NON-4WD Westy can take me. I would like the tires not to be the weak link in the chain. Can any tire meet both of those needs. Should I just get chains and resign myself to that miserable task of putting them on and taking them off, always in the very worst of weather? Thanks for any help. Paul |
