Thanks. It doesn't snow here, so I wouldn't know. I have heard that they don't handle well on snow covered roads.

Here they are mounted an these were on here when I purchased my jk in Dec they did ok for me in the snow but was a little slick I've only put on about 4000 miles with them and am not sure how many miles previous owner put on them but they seem to wear pretty good i drive city and highway daily and they are quit I'm not sure as to ride quality as I have nothing to compare them to because this is my first jeep and only tire i have road on but I have had them in some wet mud and they bit really good and didnt hold any mud in them self cleaning but I have only
Wheeled once and it wasnt extremely muddy!! Hope this helps but where this jeep is my daily driver i think I will try a diff tire next set something not so heavy and and a little softer if you do rock crawling I've heard these tires are nasty because they are also puncture proof... Just my two cents and I'm no expert still a rookie jeeper myself

I've had mine for about 6,000 miles. Do really well on highway, not too loud. Not bad in snow in 4WD, a little slick in 2WD. Here are a couple pics, sorry for the bad one in the garage. The one where I'm stuck was though 5" of ice into some deep mud.

I Have the AT 2's. They worked fine in snow. There are a couple of different Grabber models.

Kodiak…those Grabbers are nice! And I'm thinking about doing AT2's myself. My issue while minor is that if I'm going to pay 1200-1500 bucks for tires, I'd like to get the black sidewall. I like your red Kodiak but BLK is more my thing. The OWL seems to come in white sidewall only and I'd have to do R18 for BLK. Has anyone else run into this? What I'd like to find is the General Grabber AT2 35x1250xr17 BLK. Any help would be fabulous.

Thanks, the at2 is the more "all-terrain" version. All you have to do on a OWL tire is have the tire place put the white letters to the inside. Then you will have black letter tires.
