For those of you that have the Nitto 420S, how do the tires handle in the rain and snow? Any help would be great, thanks

I heard they are a dream in most conditions but snow, online has some good reviews on them.
I may get them for my 24" wheels....

I am thinking about doing the same. I was going to do a Ready Lift and Terra Grapplers because I thought I had "been there and done that" with big wheels. But I dont think I'm ready for that quite yet.lol

Also, does anyone have any other "all season" tires they like in a 295/35 R24? Living in Seattle, I have to deal with a lot of rain and an occastional snow in the winter, so a good wet traction tire is a must.

we don't get alot of snow here, but Max may have input on snow, but for me, they are great in rain and dry weather conditions. I love the tires actually.

Snow wise I think the Falken STZ-04 tires have the best rating for grip all-arouond, even with snow, maybe not ice though!
I most likely will end up with Falken, just wish the Hankook Ventus ST was cheaper, pretty much the best for the price!

x2!!

I love my 420S...They are amazing on dry/rain.....however...as for snow, while everyone on base was sliding and getting stuck in the parking lots that got iced over, I had no issues at all...I wasnt sliding or anything...Dry/Rain/Snow/Ice...I've never had an issue with these tires...I was also on the beach one day (in the sand) and towed an F250 out of a ditch that he got stuck in....amazing tires FTW
