The amount of drifts I pull with the M3 is hilarious with the Xi3. I have no rear grip.

been running general tire LT grabhers and they are doing quite good in the rain

they dig in puddles though and slow my truck right down so no more big splashes :(

I did a quick sprint down to Seattle and back on the X-Ice Snows tonight and thought they did well in the pouring rain. From memory the Blizzaks don’t seem to perform significantly worse than the Michelins in this weather, though it’s probably a combination of larger tread depth and me not driving hard enough.

we've had a few days of heavy rain and the snowdragons meets my price point expectations.
at city speeds with standing water/puddles, no signs of hydroplaning. no slipping when accelerating on inclines from a dead stop. didnt notice a big difference in braking distance. didnt really toss it around too hard cuz at the end of the day its a very heavy suv on very cheap tires. when i have time i probably should go to a empty parking lot and learn these tires limitation rather than have it creep up on me.
at highway speeds, im not going to say there wasnt any hydroplaning but its very minimal. the occasional pull from only one side hitting puddles and very loud when doing so. luckily 95% of my commute is city.
when applying common sense, at no point did i feel unsafe.

I got CrossClimates for the Accord. BF Goodrich Trail Terrain T/A’s for the F150.

IMPERIAL SNOW DRAAGGGGOOON!!!!!

you should be shouting that at people at every stoplight.

Sounds like the name of a Chinese triad or reference to a designer drug.

Im running Indy 500's. Stil not dead.

This is the sort of thing that'll happen with the likes of Imperial Snow Dragons

loud and proud. i should paint the snowdragon on the sidewalls for lawls :lawl:

How you liking the Trail Terrains? I assume you've had A/Ts before, how do they compare to all seasons and all terrains?

My Yoko Geo G015's on my F150 have been incredibly impressive in the rain. They were really good in the snow last winter too, and bombing around on the gravel backroads for 2 weeks while I was camping on the north island in the summer.

lol if you buy prinks chengshan tires I think you probably deserve to crash

What a terrible name for a brand. :lol

Hey man they have mountain in their name. It has to be good at mountain stuff !!

"Fortune Tormenta" lolol sounds like they polled a bunch of preschool kids for product marketing.

It sounds like the Spanish name for the Scrooge movie lol.

but doesn't this mean you torment your own fortune by buying these tires? what kind of a dumb shit chink fuck came up with this name!? BibleThump

Are all lug nuts created equal? I have a note in my phone about getting new nuts when I swap to my winters given the old ones looking kinda shit

Should I go to Nissan for OEM or Amazon/canadian tire all the same

I get Ming Dynasty Dragon Nuts

Simple answer is no. Do you have a different set of wheels for your winters? If yes, you "should" get the right set of nuts depending on the wheel.

On the other hand, you could get away with original nuts. I'll be Captain Obvious and state that some people care. Some people don't. It won't matter if you don't die or cause EvoFire to crash and burn on Knight Street, and if something does happen, well, YMMV.

Really liking them so far. Smoother ride with less rattles over potholes etc. compared to the stock tires that came with the truck.

Looking forward to seeing how the perform in the snow :ilied:

They are both OEM rims so unless the lugs are a different seat based on varrying OEM rim styles than I’d assume the same lugs would be fine with both sets?

Most OEM (maybe all?) are ball seats so if both sets are OEM then the lug nuts should be fine. Aftermarket tend to be cone seats.
