look in DW! i saw a set of tires in there ESPECIALLY for snow. they were 2 ply and they were chevron or something. but the 2plyness made them go into a u or v shape at high rps so they really dig down. check em' out!

I was thinking about doing that too. If it can paddle through the sand then it could mybe pattle through the snow, Except the snow is deeper and softer but im sure it would work good.

Pro Wedge tires are real good in the snow. They handle horrible though, there a "22" tire an they come in an 8" rim size. I put a set of them on my 250R and found no hill I couldn't climb, I even went into the river with them trying to get stuck on banks but it just wasn't possible. The cool thing about them is when you get em wick'd up they grew to a huge beast...like 25"s ! Great tires...real prone to flats though. They wear down fast if you go on hard surfaces alot...alittle road riding doesn't seam to hurt them much though.

around here we just ride on the ice covered streets n the snow a little packed so i got some studded ice racing tires, they worked graet last year and hopefully agin this year, they work ok too in the deeper stuff up until you need to bust out the snowmobiles
