Pete,

Tirerack.com has a good cross section of the market represented in their "off-road all terrain tire survey".Ck. the stats. on the Bridgestone Dueler A/T Revo. The only downside's are price & the fact that they don't make them in 18" sizes for you guys w/ newer VX's. I'm getting Revo's mounted in a week or two (265 70 R16) & am anxious to see how well they do in snow.
Good luck in your search, Ldub
