Well, the snow finally arrived today and I was able to try out how the Denali XL handles the white stuff with the new 17" winter tires. And I have to say, I'm impressed! We've been having unusually cold temps the past week or so--tonight it will be -9 C (about 16 F)--and we got about 4-5 inches...

Thanks!
I've decided to run BFG All-Terrains in 265/70-17 on my Denali XL for winter this year.
