Texas New tires - Which to choose? Opinions!

[RangerMags]

I know they're not on the list but have you checked out the Toyo AT3? Great tire on/off road......aggressive tread and quiet on the road! Just putting it out there!

Youre the second to mention the Toyos so maybe I should backtrack and look into those more as well

Do you have experience with their wet traction? I ran them in rain and snow in Colorado and they were great.

Admittedly no, this is purely off of reading and research on what others have experienced. I cant say personally, I've just seen multiple people say that about the tire.

Another vote for Discoverer AT3 4S. Tougher and more capable than what you have now, while also quieter on the highway.

I wonder why the Coopers aren't more popular? I like the way they look as well.

I ran the BFG KO2 for a winter and I can't say enough good things about them. Sometimes I think people expect magic. If I put the throttle down to the floor, I am going to lose traction, no matter the tire, if its wet or snowy. From my experience, the BFG KO2 does better in the wet and snow than the Toyo ATIII I am running now. These are fine, but I have to be more cautious when its wet/snowy.

I like cooper tires a lot, one of a few brands still making a lot of usa tires. I think they have a new or newish a/t on the market. https://coopertire.com/en-us/find-tires/all-tires/discoverer-rugged-trek

My first set was Falken Wildpeak...great tires...second/current set Cooper ATS3...love these and would buy another set...both are very reasonably priced compared to BFG...

They aren't on your list, but I got a set of Toyo AT3s and LOVE them. GREAT traction in snow and mud and relatively quiet on the road. The only negative is the loss of MPG, but you'll get that with any tire. I found the Hankooks to be good at one thing - MPG - but I hated them in the snow and mud.

They're a great tire. When I'm due that's what I'm gettin'!

1) BFG KO2s

Falken's would be my choice.

I have a set on the truck now, that I'm about to pull off. I have over 50k miles on them and they still have a decent amount of tread left on them.

Going to 34"s and could only get BFG KO2's., plus they were on sale super cheap.

I would do the falken's again, hands down. Awesome tire. Look great too.

265/65r17 on a +01 offset is what I’m running and it rubs the crash bar slightly, at a full turn in reverse. But I would recommend them all day everyday.

As wet traction is my biggest need, I'm going Cooper AT3 4S when I upgrade next. They look good but not too chunky and possibly give you better MPG than some of the others on your list. Pics when you finally decide please.
