the 10.50s drive way better than the 11.00 x 16 michelins. the 11.00s i had were the worst snow and ice tire I have ever had the displeasure of using. I had to air down to 20 psi just to drive on flat roads. the didnt ride smooth at all. granted this on 98 inch wheel base WCs but the only thing any good about the 1100s for me was the increased top speed. Its been a long time since I ahd any 10.50s but as I recall the were very quiet compared to the michelins and ride quality was better as well. Bias when they are new ride great. they get a bad rap because many people buy trucks with 30+ year old bias plies and judge the ride quality by them. not really a fair comparison. the 10.50s are quiet becasue of the zigzag down the center always in contact with pavement. 1100s make massive noise in comparison.
