So I’ll be driving 80% city roads. 15% highway. Last 5% would be back mountain roads at 8000 feet above sea level.
Now the 21” tires would work for 95% of my driving, and maybe even those last 5 in summer and fall. But winter (snow) and spring (soooo much mud) would be ok maybe?
Truthfully I like the look of the 20s better and I can live with a 15% cut in range (the mountain off grid Shabin-shed converted to cabin-is 134 miles round trip), so I guess I should go that route. But part of me also says save a few bucks and go for more range.
the road today: luckily a couple live up there full time and he plows the road a bit.
Plowed nicely, but all this will be mud come March
