Do "All Season Tires" count as snow tires?

[frankmorris]

Got my build sheet back and indeed I have the all terrain, which sounds like is a good thing for snow purposes. Good timing, as we got snow last night. (Bad timing in that the Jeep hasn't arrived yet!)

The K02 tires mentioned - are those only stock on the Rubicon, or will my JLU all terrain tires also be K02? I do see Bridgestone listed as the tire, but no model specification.

They will not be the K02's but rather the Bridgestone Dueler A/T RH-S's. They have a decent tread pattern and should be good for light to medium snow driving.

Got it - thanks. Shouldn't have too much heavy duty snow to tackle, so hopefully will work out okay.

In the mountains of Colorado the must be stamped M/S for mud and snow

Are the Dueler A/T’s stamped for that?

Also the Dueler A/T’s I’m showing are all season tires - are you sure those are the stock all terrains?

Yup the picture was the all terrain tires that came on our 2018 Sahara. They are M/S rated so you are good there. Apparently, Bridgestone lists them as all seasons but they definitely have a more aggressive tread than the Dueler H/T's (below) that come on some Wranglers.

Ah, thanks - that makes sense. Yes, got on Bridgestone's website and saw that, but that's good to hear they've at least got that M/S rating for legal purposes!
