Jif ..
I hate to tell you but fat snow tires are useless..they ride up on top of the snow and tend to snow plough..skinny snow tires ,on the other hand ,dig down through the snow to ground or gravel and grip there ..not on the snow..skinny tires also cut through the snow while fatties tend to snow plough and burn heep big gas and get no where..stick to skinny snows if you want traction..keep your fatties for looks..
