    Tires for 2009 Tahoe LTZ

    Michelin LTX M/S2 vs General Grabber HTS What I'm looking for; a quiet highway tire with good treadlife that can handle the occasional decent snow we get in Ohio. The Generals are about $200 cheaper, but I won't complain either way. What do you guys think? Did I miss a contender?

    General AT2

    I do. 2wd chevy 1500 with posi. They do great in the deep stuff, and quite a bit better than all seasons on the thin stuff. They really shine if you happen to find yourself offroad in the winter.

    ATF in Manual transmission

    ATF will cause no damage. Running 3 quarts low to the point of popping out of gear on the other hand will. That trans only hold like 3.5 quarts or something stupid.
