[QUOTE="WVfishnfool, post: 339488, member: 10364"] DO NOT lower the air pressure in your tires especially if you're adding weight in the rear, you may even want to inflate 2-5 lbs. above recommended air pressure because of the weight and cold air temps. On a truck like a S-10 or Toyota 200 lbs. is plenty for traction. As far as traction on pure ice goes studded tires or chains or just stay home. If it's ice and snow mix good tires and slow you're butt down. Basically drive like you don't have any brakes at all. I've learned a few things after drivin tractor-trailers for 32 years. :wink: [/QUOTE]
