Default Sherman in the snow!

Sherman did great in yesterday's blizzard. We got 18"+ of snow!

I pulled over in this lot to clean off the wipers.



This is how Sherman first looked when I went out after working for a few hours at the office.



I forgot to take a pic before cleaning him off in the morning.
Sherman has Bridgestone Blizzak LM-60 RFT winter tires & hasn't gotten stuck yet!

Are those 16 or 17 inch rims. Nice color. Mine is also under snow here in NC.

Look like the 16's. The snow tires are probably a bit wider and higher profile?

Yep, they are the OE rims.

These are the winter tires on Sherman:
SNOW TIRES

Got them from a local dealer. OE rims & TPMS sensors.

For comparison these were the OE tires (the Dunlop 7000).

This image compares the stats of the two tires (top is the OE & bottom is the Blizzaks):

I used Blizzaks in the snow when I lived in CT. They have a terrific grip. They saved me a few times on icy roads too.
