WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE TIRE... AND WHY?

@hjstrater 7 ай бұрын

Just finished up a set of Wildpeaks, running KO2’s on the wife’s rig, but had to give the Baja Boss AT’s a shot this time around. so far really impressed with road manners for how aggressive the tire is. Looking forward to see how they handle snow.

GOODYEAR WRANGLER ULTRATERRAIN A/T 265 /70 R16 112S SL SBL I put these on my 2000 4runner when I first got it and they do great on and offroad. Super quiet, have avoided many accidents from other stupid drivers. Grippy offroad. Would recommend.

Of all of the videos I watch about overlanding gear and equipment, I truly believe you do the best reviews. You don't give any indication of your preference, while just providing an honest, straight forward assessment of any product you're discussing. I've been watching tire videos for the past 12 months and I'm about to buy a set. The two videos you did on AT tires are the best. You've helped me make my decision. Thanks for the work you put into your videos!

@OutdoorAuto 7 ай бұрын

This makes my day… I really have never been a “brand preference” person. No one company can dominate at everything… so it really comes down to personal use. Lots of good tires out there just need to pick the one that matches your use. Trying to help people figure that out… not doing it perfectly… but trying 🤷‍♂️

@davecamilleri9411 7 ай бұрын

I have been selling tires for over 35 years, I love tire reviews and I try to test as many tires as I can so I can recommend good tires to my customers. My favorite tire of all time is the Mickey Thompson Baja A/T, it excels in snow, eats mud for breakfast and is reasonably quiet. My last set was on a 2017 Chevy 3500 Diesel in 295/70R18 and I loved the tire. It is a heavy tire, but there is a lot of rubber on the ground. I ran numerous sets of Goodyear Duratracs and frankly I didn't think it was that great in the mud, and it seemed to wear quickly towing heavy on a diesel truck. When the tire got to about 50% wear, traction was poor. I am testing some Toyo R/T Trails on my current GMC 3500 Dually and so far they are doing well. I have pulled heavy trailers for over 1000 miles and the last trip was 300 miles of snow packed roads and the tire excelled in places where the snow was a little deeper on the highway. Hard pack snow and ice was about what you could expect, reasonable. I have always been a fan of the General Grabber ATX with studs for snow use and I agree with your conclusions about them. I have several sets of Toyo A/TIII on the road on customers vehicles right now and so far they like them. I also have many sets of BFG KO2's out there and some love them and some don't. As for mud tires, one of my favorites is the Mickey Thompson MTZ, I just put another set of 35-12.50-15's on my Jeep TJ and they set the bar in the mud especially when driven at around 10 psi.

How does your TJ handle those heavy tires? Regeared?

@WillyK51 6 ай бұрын

How much heavier is heavy Most tyres wheight about the same for size? If you go 35" the standard Dana 35 might be overwhelmed, a 44 can take it if you don't go crazzy, Push it to the limit get a Dana 60, Personaly for camping normal offroading a 33 Dia tire will get you everywhere(Reinforced sidewalls and biters a Plus, Rocks and roots will punture a sidewall) .And a standard engine will still be powerfull enough. Anyway if you need traction/power remember you have 4 Low with large tyres. Regearing isn't a priority, but if you only got 1 car for everything a 4.11 gear might help with 33" and mileage. Ups forgot to mention Get a STANDARD 5 Spd Tranny@@mfunes1494

Loved the video. Great mix of information and entertainment/production value to keep me engauged and interested the entire time. Probably one of the best tire review videos on KZfaq that didn't feel like a tire "sales" video. One part that I found very interesting was that you placed the Gen. Grabber ATX above the Wildpeak AT3W for snow performance, given how popular and widely regarded the AT3W is for its wet/snow performance, that's a pretty big achievement to be had for the Grabber ATX. I was just surprised by this, because in my opinion the General Grabbers appearance is very unasumming and I didn't expect it to have as outstanding snow performance as you state that it does in the video.

I bought Toyo AT3s with the help of this video. You said be honest with your use. I’m a 90% road guy and a weekend fire road explorer. Previous tire was Toyo MT and absolutely hated them. Loved the look but I hated them once the weather turned bad in Reno. I literally would drive my minivan before my 4x4 truck in the winter. To be fair I bought the MTs used for half price so it was a money thing lol. Learned a lot.

Awesome vid! I'm running the Goodyear MTs (35s) that are the OEM bronco tire on my f150. I get people asking why did I choose that tire when there are better off-road tires, but it does what I need. 85% road, 15% hold my beverage, and it is light for a 35. If I kick up the off-road usage, then I'll be looking at those Mickey Ts!

How you have made me reevaluate my tire choice, as we plan on going to Alaska next year from South Florida. I know long trip but it is something I have wanted to do for a long time and finally have the time off to do it. Looking forward to seeing the next episode in this tire series.

I'm just coming back from Alaska now after about a month and a half and then around the Arctic Circle. While, there hasn't been any deep snow , since leaving the Arctic Circle in Canada and heading over to Alaska and up to prudo Bay it is snowed quite a bit. Just last night we got three inches around fort Nelson, British Columbia. My Goodyear trail terrains have done an excellent job in the snow. The only time I need four-wheel drive is going up inclines off road. The traction and handling on these things are awesome. I think I'm going to go with the KO2 when I get back home to North Carolina. Let me know when you head up from Florida. If you need a driveway to pull into, I'm not too far away from Raleigh, North Carolina.

Awesome video! Thanks for pointing out that you had a second video (I had commented on your first one) Can you answer a couple questions out of ALL the tires you tested? 1. What would be your best pick for snow & ice 2. What would your top 3 picks be, based on the best all-around average? Personally I bought the Baja Boss, I'm mostly on road with lots of winter, but it gets sloppy in spring as well. So far EXTREMELY happy, after coming off years of mud tires. Also I like that you put the Duratrac guys in their place, all the construction guys run them around here "because they always have" Thanks again. Awesome content!

I run the Toyo AT3 (E's) on my truck and tow a boat. With that said, I'm mostly highway but appreciate the aggressive tread when i get to my destination since many lake roads are often steep gravel / dirt / tree roots, etc. mix. It seems to do fairly well in heavy rain since the AT3's are fully siped (full lug depth) as opposed to the prior set of Toyo AT2's I ran.

I've tried a handful of AT tires. Nitto Ridge Grapplers, Terra Grapplers, Cooper ATP II, Dick Cepek Trail Country EXP, and recently have General Grabber ATX. The Coopers were my favorite AT road tire, the Dick Cepek were my favorite AT/Hybrid tire for off-road. I have just shy of 4k miles on the General Grabber ATX that I got because I moved to the PNW from CA. They may be my favorite tires, we'll see once I can start off-roading with them.

I live in Michigan and I regularly go off road in some pretty tough mud and clay, to get back to my hunting and fishing spots in northern Michigan. I do no rock climbing and I have never driven off road in a desert. I air down from 33psi (paved roads) to 20psi for my off-road excursions in Michigan. I have noticed that airing down any lower risks getting sand in the bead from the tires rocking side to side while in rough, heavily rutted muddy/watery terrain, causing bead leaks (mostly on my heavier Chevy truck). I also travel a lot on snowy roads in the winter. I am on my 4th set of Goodyear Wrangler Duratracs (2 different 4x4s), purchasing the latest in October 2023 -- 2 sets on my old '04 Chevy Tahoe Z71 4x4 (w/ G80 rear locker), and 2 sets on my 2015 Jeep Grand Cherokee Overland Diesel (w/ Offroad Adventure II II/Quadra-Drive II). Have crashed offroad, and even once broke a rear axle on the Chevy getting back to my hunting spot, but I have never had a sidewall issue with any of the Duratracs (so far), and they stay remarkably quiet until about 40,000 miles after which I notice they do get louder on dry pavement at highway speeds. I change them out by 50K or a little sooner. For my type of off road/on road travel, I have yet to find a year-around all-terrain tire that (would appear to) perform as well -- warm weather/snowy winter/muddy off-road -- as the Goodyear Wrangler Duratracs actually do for me. My local tire shop still recommends the Duratracs over the other all-terrain tires for my type of driving on the relatively "light" vehicles that I am driving -- no "super heavy-duty" pickup trucks.

These tires are the best all-around tires I have ever owned, hands down. Rain,Mud, Snow, Sand, it just eats it all up. I even pull my 32' RV trailer on the beach in Texas to camp with no problems; it never gets stuck. Those sidewalls are so amazing in sand and mud. Facts they take alot of weights to balance, and have them turn tire on rim and re-balance them. And are heavy tires and lost MPG from prior tires about 1-2 mpg. I'll take the lost to have such a amazing performance tire with 129 load index rating

I have a 2011 GMC 1500 and currently run General AT W and it has been a good tire. I buy 8 or 10 ply’s for my half ton because I have had 50 cent piece sized holes punch through Light Truck tires. Have not had a flat since going to 8 or 10s. Previous to this I had Cooper AT/W and found them to handle significantly better on road than the General (very spongy on road) and do better off-road as well, especially in deep snow. I can’t really speak to mud performance as I don’t do a lot of mud wheeling. The Generals were about $300 less per tire than the Cooper, so there is that. Got similar mileage out of both, but due for a new pair. Great video, might be going to the Mickey Thompson for my next set.

I’ve had numerous tires over the years, more recently the following- Goodyear Duratrac- bought them when they first came out for an F350 I had at the time. I thought they were loud and very squirmy. I did not like them and had them replaced by Goodyear. Goodyear Silent Armor- replaced the Duratrac above. Solved the handling and excessive noise issue, but I felt that they sucked on slushy roads and lane changes in winter…guessing due to the center tread pattern. Goodyear Wrangler SR-A factory tires on my current 2018 2500HD when it was new. They were not exciting at all but wore great, were quiet, did well in snow (multiple snowmobile trips with trailer from northern Ohio to the U.P. and out west), and did well enough on very mild two-track trails in the U.P. I put ~30k miles on them and they were about 1/2-2/3 worn. Grabber ATX on the same 2500HD. Bought them due to the reasonable price and snow traction review. They were louder than I expected, had a harmonic noise at certain speeds that would not go away after multiple rotations and attempts to rebalance (which took a lot of weight). Wanted to like them but they drove me nuts snd I had them warrantied by General/Discount Tire. Never got them into snow. Had them less than 4000mi. The cushioning layer that this video references along with General’s marketing was absolute fluff. BFG KO2’s on the same 2500HD. These were the tires I wanted when I opted for the cheaper ATX’s. I got 59,000 happy miles out of them with even wear, and could have confidently gotten another 10k before the wear indicators. They were quieter than the Grabber ATX’s, took less weight to balance and were smoother, did awesome in all sorts of winter conditions both empty and towing, excellent wet traction, they looked great…all good things. My only gripe is that they did start to get a bit noisy after 45k. BFG KO3’s replaced the KO2’s. I bought them off Simple Tire within a day of them becoming available. I expected to love those things even more than the KO2’s, but they were awful. I noticed they cost me about 1-1.5mpg, were louder, and rode like octagons in comparison to the KO2’s. I also tried to have them rebalanced and rotated at least twice in less than

Really interesting review I was working at a Goodyear dealer when the duratrac came out. I loved them on my Sonoma. On my current ‘02 Sierra 2500hd I’ve run 315/75r16 KO2s, then a set of duratracs (which were excellent for me). I just replaced them with a set of Hercules Terra Trac MT which I think are my favorite to date.

Mickey Thompson Baja Boss AT. Hands downs the best tire. Made in America on top of that 🇺🇸. Can’t go wrong with a set of these.

Recently bought thr MT Baja Boss A/T and theyve been very quiet, aggressive during a trip to the most remote town in the lower 48, Jarbidge, Nevada. Miles and miles of dirt track/forest service road, up and down some steep sections, and switchbacks. Very sure footed and no drama. Now we've had a bit of snow, and it crunched over snow and crusty ice without any delay. Just drive with reasonable prudence and you won't have any problems.

@travisbeckett578 11 күн бұрын

@ms.annthrope415 Any update on how the MTs are still doing? These are probably my next tire, I live in the PNW and spend a lot of time all over remote areas in the PNW, SW and everywhere in between sand, snow, rocks, washboards, washouts etc. and this tire seems like it checks all the boxes for me.

Interesting about the Falken Wildpeaks. We run the A/T Trails on our Subaru Ascent. We've done numerous offroad trips (thousands of miles now?), including part of the BDR trails in Utah (through Moab as well) and Washington state. We've taken them through mud, dirt, rock, gravel, dry and wet, everything in between and they have been absolutely amazing. Performed far better than I ever expected, until..... last weekend, we took them with a group up into the fresh powder (about 18" fresh and actively snowing). A Toyota Tacoma was lead vehicle (we were first on the trail, so the Tacoma was plowing), we were 8th out of 9 vehicles and we were the only vehicle to get stuck (3 times!), had to get a pull out each time. Everyone else had zero issues. So in the snow, these were very underwhelming. However, I am about to buy the Wildpeak AT3W within a day or two for another deeper snow run (probably closer to 2ft deep). I'm expecting a lot (of snow performance) out of the AT3W, we are also going from 245/60R18 to 265/60R18, so more sidewall and about 1" taller overall (29.6" up to 30.5"). Not huge tires by any means, but much deeper tread, slightly wider and taller. I think this will allow us to air down a bit more than usual too and also help us float on top of the snow a bit better. We plan on continuing to put miles on our A/T Trails (spring/summer/fall) and use the AT3W for winters until the A/T Trails are used up, then just run the AT3W year-round.

Sounds like a solid plan... snows is tricky because it can present itself so many ways... I was just out in over 2 feet of snow that was pure unpackable dust... it was sub zero so nothing would stick... it was like driving in moon dust and pretty much no tire had traction... aired down to 2 PSI and just had to try to float as long as I could. We got stuck a lot...

My grabber ATX's have been wonderful. I have 265-70-17s (e rated) on my 4runner. I have pulled trailers, hauled my dual sport on my hitch, been up and down miles of logging roads and put 78k miles on them. Probably had another 15k on them but my shocks went out and they started cupping really bad. I found them to be quiet and comfortable, but they are also the first AT tire I've run. I know comfort is subjective so for reference, my daily driver is a 2500HD work van on e rated tires, and my better half has a mustang with the track package. None of our vehicles are "soft" riding.

The open country all-terrain tire regarding the three ply load E reading. Load in a three ply sidewall depends on your tire size. If you use a straight stock tire size on a heavy duty truck in a load E rating more than likely it’s going to be a two ply sidewall.

Have a set of toyo at3s on my chevy 1500 overlander. They are the best all around tires if everd had in 30 years of wheeling. They have 30k miles on them and still have plenty of tread left, they are quite, and they have great traction offroad. My truck doesnt have lockers, but I rarely find myself loosing traction enough to need them. I'll probably be throwing a set of these on my gmc 2500 when its nitos wear out.

I have 84,000 miles on my 285/70/17 ko/2's and am ordering a new set today (5th set ive owned, and i am 100% never changing to a different tire) The ONLY thing better than these is the original BFG all-terrain's i use to buy for my tacoma, that they no longer make! Ive pulled bolts, nails, screws out of the tread without having to repair them, no leaks. Ive scuffed the sidewalls on extreme trail rides and never had a gash/roll off/cut that caused concern. I run these on 2 vehicles: 2000 jeep xj and a 2003 toyota sequoia, both are modified for off-road use.

Great video. I am running the Toyo RT Trail. I drive mostly on pavement but I do a lot of FSR/offroading with my truck too. Curious your thoughts on this tire? I have roughly 5k on them now and they're fantastic!! I haven't looked recently but there was only 1 video I found on YT that gave a review for it. Also, I was looking at the Milestar Patagonia AT Pro but I ran out of tread on my old tires to be able to try them out. It took forever for them to hit the market, so I went with the Toyo RT Trail instead. Once again great video and keep up the great work!!!

I got to say the tires did great drove really nice and seems to do well in the snow and rain.. But did i make a bad choice? Thank you!!

I had the Grabber ATx on my RAM 1500. I found that they wore VERY quickly. They were OK in mud. Wet performance lacked and got a lot worse as the tires wore. They were loud.

I have Baja Boss A/T on my Ram 1500. They are the 34" tire. I just drove on I80 in Wyoming in a snow storm. The highway was closed but Highway Patrol let us go to Laramie from Cheyenne. For some distance it was not plowed and had six inches of snow on top of ice. They were phenomenal. Zero slipping. We had to drive around some semi's in deeper snow and a soft shoulder. Zero issue. I have also used them up in the mountain on bigger rocks. I absolutely would buy these tires again. I have had them for about 12000 miles and they are wearing great.
