Looking for Real World Feedback on Arctic Claw XSI Tires

[Cream Cracker]

I'm looking into the Arctic claw XSI tires for my wife's 1500. They're not going on a plow truck, just her daily commuter, but she does a lot of driving through steep terrain. From what I've seen, they offer the best bang for the buck in a 20" size, but info on them is pretty limited. I've heard of the brand and seen the tires around, but never personally used them. Since they seem to be a private label, I figured I'd ask here, anyone have any kind of first hand experience with these? like how do they hold up in winter conditions and on hilly roads?
Appreciate any insight before we make the purchase, thanks

I say go for it. Plain and sweet. And wow that's kinda nice you got your wife a plow? Oh yeah, I misread that. One of my old buddies got the same set of tires as yours, and it's definitely life-changing, he says. Splurge on that and come back to us!

my brother used that on his 1500 in a hilly area. he found them good for the price, pretty decent traction in snow and ice but noticed they wore faster than premium tires and sidewalls were softer.. i checked it myself..

could be a good choice for your wife's daily commute but i wouldn't say the same for aggressive driving especially on consistently harsh conditions..

yeah I have a friend who put a set on his truck, and for the price, they are fantastic.
They're not a top tier tire like a Blizzak or X-Ice, but they handle steep, snow covered roads very well.
The biggest feedback I've heard is that they have excellent traction in deep snow and slush. The siping on the tread is great for gripping icy patches
