Not so new to the site. I've been lurking since I purchased my trailblazer last year. This last snow storm brought to my attention that my tires are not near as good as they first were. I figure if I'm going to shell out the cash for tires, I might as well go all the way.

I work at an auto center so I can manage a decent deal on the rubber :excited: .

Read plenty of stuff on the topic, still have questions. I'll have those addressed at a later point.

Catch you all on the flip side.

Tell her offroading is one that will keep you out of her hair. Otherwise there are always ways to not be bothered by future complaining. Many ways.

Seriously, this one can crowd out others for a while if you let it.

As the old joke goes about learning to fly - the enthusiastic noob asks the old timer how much it costs to fly. Old timer says: "All ya got, kid. All ya got."
