See Tennessee code, title 55 motor and other vehicles, chapter 8 operation of motor vehicles - rules of the road, chapter 9 equipment - lighting regulations, part 1 general provisions 55-9-102 emergency parts and accessories to be carried by various type motor vehicles. Refer to 55-9-106 studded tires."

No studded tires allowed in Michigan?  That seems really strange in a northern state.

I have the Firestone Destination AT.  I like them, been running for 3 years now, maybe not quietest on the highway but they were the best reviewed ones among what I was looking at ... that and I had a coupon!

I have 215-75-15 Trail Buster A/T  Some cheap brand but have decent wear and traction ratings.  Not noisy but great in snow plus the price was free. I have no lift just new springs all the way around no rubbing.
