Ozz,

I have been using Wild Country tires which have a more aggressive tread for the winter. These tires to me resemble the old snow tread design. Lots of the 4-wheel guys run them in the south to get to their deer stands. I run them on two of our trucks in our landscape work. The tires have good traction in mud/snow for us. The link is just an example for tread. I get mine from a local tire guy.

Those treads are good for mud, as they are gapped far enough apart for self-cleaning, but there are much better tread patterns for snow and especially ice. I have a pair of Firestone Destination MTs and the tread is extremely aggressive, but while they do carry the M/S designation, they suck for winter driving compared to what else is available. http://www.tirerack.com/tires/tires....tination+M%2FT Mud however is a different story as they will sling it with the best of them.
