[All Terrain Vs Snow Tire for LR4]

Hello,

I am trying to choose between All Terrain (maybe Falken Wildpeak with 3P snow rating) and Snow tires (maybe Michelin X-Ice or Blizzak DMV2).   
 

I live in Fremont and my 2016 LR4 Landmark came with Firestone LE3.
The use case for these A/T or Snow tires will be for 2-3 trips upto Sierra (tahoe/yosemite/or some resort) every winter.  

I am more inclined towards the A/T since I think I can just use it through the Winter even in East bay.  I believe the actual Snowtires need to be swapped out in conditions with Temp > 50F..it will be a hassle to swap it out after every trip in the winter.
 

Any thoughts on this especially if the A/T is good enough for Sierra winter?  
 

Thanks,

Thanks for the replies.  @Hudd130 I assume you mean the one in Campbell..not Fremont (there is one in Fremont too)

[Independent mechanic recommendation in East Bay]

Hello everyone,

I just bought a 2016 LR4 Landmark (82K miles), Stock with no mods.  I am looking for a reliable mechanic for any maintenance that may come up.  Preferably in the SF East Bay. I live near Fremont.  I already know about British European in Fremont, but they are retiring soon (best case by Apr next year or so).  So looking for some other place. 

Other options I have are British European in Campbell or Cerone's in Redwood City..but they are all kind of 30-40 mins drive for me.  

Thanks in advance,

Sarath.
