I was on 18x8 (255/18) Bridgestone Blizzaks and he was on 20x10 (295/20) Nokian Hakkapeliitta tires. We fish tailed alot on launch but it was worth it.
In the end, the Nokian tires proved to be far better than the Bridgestones I had on (in turns and on straightaways). So much for Blizzaks being "the best" I also was told narrower is better for winter but this also didn`t seem to be the case as the black jeep`s Nokians were 2inchs wider.
