Grandtrek PT3A in the snow
I have finally found a dealer who can get me the exact LX I want at a reasonable price. For those who have had a 2016 in the snow...how do the OEM tires (Grandtrek PT3A) do in the snow. There are no other tires available for this car and i would like to avoid the hassle of changing such heavy wheels out each year.

From Tire Rack's description...
Street/Sport Truck All-Season light trucktires are for drivers who want a combination of aggressive, low-profile tires/large rim diameter wheels to enhance their vehicle's appearance and handling withall-season versatility, including traction in light snow. Street/Sport Truck All-Season tires branded with the M+S symbol are sometimes used as Original Equipment (O.E.) on 2WD and 4WD light and medium-duty pickup, crossover and sport utility vehicles.
The answer may end up being "How much snow do you get?"
They would not work where I live. I pay $20 twice a year to have my local tire shop switch winter tires (Blizzak) with Toyo AT/II's. Tires not on the truck stay in the barn.
I might also consider dedicated winter tires mounted on wheels to take a taller section height. Generally, wide tires are a pita in snow.
