Default raptor in snow?

Here's the thing about riding in the snow...it all about the temperature. it's below freezing...the stock tires actually work great. but when the sun comes out and it gets above freezing. i avoid riding. you get stuck when you stop. anyways all the fun is on the ice. find a lake or pond...stud them up...and keep your center-o-gravity low in the turns.

Pro wedge tires are just amazing in snow. They have super floatation and you can do wheeleis on glare ice with them. I heard about them like ten years ago and was skeptical but when I finnally bought a set I felt like a fool that I hadnt used them earlier. They have at least twice as much traction as any stock tire or knobby. And any tire that is good in mud is genrally total crap in snow. Sure traks and trail pros I know from experience suck in snow.
