Need Winter Tire Recommendations for 07 Toyota Tundra 4x4

[NickBrewer]

I just purchased a new 2007 Toyota Tundra Regular Cab 4x4 with the 5.7L engine. The vehicle has Michelin 255/70-18 tires on it as standard equipment.

I live in Anchorage, Alaska and winter is coming on us fast, so I have begun my search for the best winter tires I can find for my vehicle. The problem seems to be that not many winter tires are available in the size I need.

I have used studded Nokian Hakkapellitas on my other cars for years and love them, but it doesn't appear that Nokian makes an 18" tire anywhere near the size I need, so I am looking for suggestions/recommendations for other winter tire brands to fit my new Tundra.

BTW, I have purchased my summer tires through Tire Rack for many years and have always had excellent service! Thanks!

Not much available in the correct oe size range for the Tundra at this point. Give me a call and we can discuss the details. 800 428 8355 ext 663. Our only option would be going to a shorter tire for the winter.

I always recommend GY SilentArmors...great wet/snow traction. Got me through 2' of snow in the Taco this past winter. I'm getting the same installed on the Tundra this weekend. 275/65/18
