Long time / First time. thanks for the wealth of knowledge here.
I bought a 2016 LR4 HSE about a year and a half ago, really enjoy it.came with 20” rims and pirelli 255/50 all season tires. Got a chance to try them in the snow, and did good, but not great.
Previous vehicle was Audi A4 with dedicated nokian winter tires. Best handling snow vehicle I’ve ever experienced. Granted lr4 is much heavier, I’d like to get as close to this as possible.
I live in mammoth lakes, Ca - lots of snow, so need optimal winter tire. No doubt nokian is for me.
I’ve always ran a dedicated winter rim/tire setup. In looking into new rims, I’m having trouble with the technicalities of what will fit. Not interested in modifications, so 19 or 20. I’d like more beef for winter *** holes, so leaning to 19”.
Factory OEM route is kind of boring, but I’m just not confident enough in the details to stray away. And advice you can share with a noob?
Also, I’ve seen a lot of previous posts concluding nokian winter tire are the best, but with limited detail. Anybody have more specific review/detail they can share. Thanks!
