Question type: Maintenance & Repair

I put on 30x9.5x15 inche tires on my 04 blazer lt 4x4, first time I drove it was in
a light snow. I was sliding all over the road, which I have never had happen this
is my fourth blazer. So I put in 4 high and didn't have 4, I was still sliding, is this
the new tire size or is there another problem?

The tire size alone could not cause this (assuming all 4 tires are the same size).

Some tires are better in snow than other tires. Are these all season or snow tires? What tire did you install?
