So what if anything are people running for winters?

Looking at OEM sizes im considering Cooper "Winter Claw" 10 plys

Anyone have any experience?
 
I will be running Toyo Open Country AT/III in 275/50/22 for winter (and all year round).
 
275 65 18 Blizzak DM V2s for New England and Canada. Limited choices for 265 70 18s winter tires at the moment unless you go for heavier duty truck tires. For the driving we do in the snow, ATs won’t work for us.

Here’s a preview of my setup. Method 316 18x9 +18. I need to switch out the old 265 60 DM V2s from our 460 to the 275 65 18s when it gets colder.

Was a bit disappointed to not find any C load winters in the OE OT size.

I really liked them on my Sierra and were a good compromise between passenger and truck tires.

Debating trying studded this go around for an ultimate go anywhere winter mobile

Just bought the same Michelin Blizzak DM V2’s for both my Overtrail and my wife’s LC FE. A lot of $ for rubber but we do a lot of dicey winter driving here in Vermont and helping to avoid even a minor fender bender is worth it.
