My Hankook 19.5's are doing great on ice and in snow. I used to run DH01's in all 6 spots, but I changed out my fronts to AH06 Highway rib steer tires due to poor front tire wear with the traction radials. I find that the 225/70R19.5 profile is just right for my needs -- narrow and tall to cut through snow, with the right amount of contact patch for weight distribution/traction on most ice. I can run right up my ice covered driveway, either regular or backing up in reverse without slipping. My Saturn slips everytime, no matter my speed (makes it up though), and my wife's Grand Caravan slides around, too. I recommend them for a "cheap" alternative for folks wanting 19.5" tires. I paid less for each Hankook tire than I did for the BFG's on my 2001 Dodge 2500 V-10. ALSO: I do not understand why everyone has been so concerned for me driving the Dually in winter??? I have never had any trouble with traction or handling driving my truck in any winter weather.
