Does anyone in here have any winter driving experience with the Pirelli Scorpion ATR 20's that came in my new Lariat Ecoboost? It has the auto 4x4 so I am just wondering if I should be prepared to put winter tires and wheels on it? On that note, can I put 18 inch winter wheels and rubber on it? Would the factory 18 inch wheels that I have from my GM Sierra work? I already have winter rubber in them.

Thanks in advance.

Te ones I have ate the 18 inch stock GM
ones that would appear to have the same 6 bolt nut pattern.

They're already paid for and have new rubber on them for winter. I guess that might be cheap and silly. Not sure these Pirellis are up to a Canadian winter.

yeah I live in central California so I don't have to worry about snow too often.. I've taken it in the snow with my MR/R's though and they did okay

I never used snow tires, Lived in MT for 6 years. It really would just depend on driving style and if you live out in the boonies! LOL
