![The BEST 9 All Terrain [A/T] Tires Tested! Conti vs BFGoodrich vs Firestone vs Toyo vs Nitto + More](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/2hwYCc6YvYM/mqdefault.jpg)
In my years of driving experience I know that snow in tread grips snow better than rubber. Mud is mud and rock is rock so lugs are needed. Sipes are a huge deal in everything.
Good summary of the interaction with snow and a tire.
Trailbuilt creates the best content. I can always rely on thier honest, straight to the point, no nonsense approach to reviewing/promoting new products.
We love you to Hydroman!
Good options for winter conditions:
Nokian Hakkapeliittas LT 3, various sizes up to 315/70 R17 (35")
Nokian Hakkapeliitta 405, size 38"x15.50 R15
Nokian Hakkapeliitta 44, size 475/70 R17 (44")
All three are available as studded or studless tires.
Sidenotes:
Nokian Hakkapeliitta 405, has been used by Arctic trucks on both the North and South pole. Its the same tire BBC Top Gear used in its polar special, it is also used on all of the Arctic Trucks Experience vehicles on Iceland.
Nokian Hakkapeliitta 44 is currently used by Arctic trucks on the South pole.
wow, that's a lot of Hakkas lol
Just got M/T Boss, on a Wrangler jl 2door ,,2wd only to see how good they are.
Snow all kinds up to 2 feet,was actually surprise to see how well the side walls stayed clear,
was able rutt in and out as other vehicles came up on the trail👍
Wet,👍
Noise, 👍
Checked on asphalt with packed and slushy conditions, T/C kicked in occasionally, so for safety went 4x4. No issues then.
Pleased with the tire and choice made. In the dry 👍
👎With a 4.75-0/off set due to cleaning ability they pepper nicely.
I can live with it.
Good information in your videos...Keep it up!!👍🤙
I run the KO2s in Idaho also, they do so good! Preferred over Goodyear wrangler
Agreed K02's are the best tires I've had up here in Canada never had a good experience with the duratracs especially after they get a year or 2 old
IV got ko2s on a 4runner here in the high desert of Oregon. They kill it in the snow and ice, they're super quiet and somehow last forever even in this dry sunny climate
Just subscribed! Thanks for the advice!
I'am running in wintertime Nankang Mudstar 35 12.5 15. studded and micro cut in middle, these tires are fantastic in snow and on every terrain I have driven.
I also have BFG Mud terrain at summer time but the Nankang tires are much better tire than bfg.
Pro Comp and Dick Cepek tires are also very good tire for winter.
I live in Illinois and have ran the Dick Creek Trail Country EXP since 2019 and put over 55,000 on them. I LOVE THEM. Now they're Mickey Thompson Baja Legends.
You only covered the southwest. The southeast is endless sugar sand and black bottomless muck. We don't have rocks here in Florida lol
What tires have you found are the best in that region?
@@TrailBuilt I find that the Nitto Ridge Grapplers and the Cooper ST Maxx seem to do the best all around. They're not as great as a straight mud tire but it's a good compromise for longevity and traction off-road
I'm surprised the Toyo open country at3 didn't make it on this list
Yeah, what’s up with that?
Viewer outside the USA here, I use BFG KO2s in the midlands of England. The KO2s work well here, they grip the sandy grippy soil of the Peak District well and they are good on the road as well because they are almost as quiet as stock tyres. Finally, it is reassuring that they are 3PMSF rated for the occasional snow we get here.
I think I'm gonna put those on my truck mostly hot sun here in the south , but lately it's been freezing .
Well I am from the U.K. and think the KO2 ain’t that great. Poor in the mud and terrible on wet asphalt….not fantastic in the snow either. Now run Maxxis Wormdrive and better in every category and much cheaper….appreciate this is just my opinion.
central British Columbia Canada.my summer tires for towing my travel trailer with my power wagon are f rated ridge grapplers,soon to be replaced with recon grapplers.my winter tires are my oem dura craps.my 3 season off roads are dyna pros that are nearing their end of life,so i'm digging into researching some dedicated m/t's.i don't do one set fits all.
Nice reviews and breakdown. Thanks.
Thanks for watching!
I been sharing the channel as much as I can
Thanks Charles! We appreciate the support!
I live in the southeast but I will go for a 3PMS tire every time for the wet weather performance. Siping matters
I’m in Idaho and I have the BFG K02s. Most of the state is a desert, there’s not much mud to speak of outside of snow melt season.
I've been very happy with my general grabber ATXs
I run Nitto RidgeGrapplers here in Arizona, all of Arizona.
Why were the Wildpeak AT3Ws included in the southern list but not northern? They’re 3peak rated.
So are BFG KO2's.
No shit, the AT3W’s were literally R&D tested in the U.P.
Are used to own a pair in California and they do not last well in hot weather
Toyo RT.

This is extremely helpful for me living right on the 45th parallel! I’ve been struggling to decide what tire would cover all of my bases best for my northern conditions, daily off-road driving, and plenty of highway miles too. Currently running some Cooper Evolution M/Ts on my Ram 2500 diesel, and I’ve been fairly happy with them. But, of course, they’re wearing out pretty quickly. I knew they would. I have to say that I was pleasantly surprised with winter traction being labeled as an M/T. But, just looking to up my traction on hardpack snow and possibly add a little tread wear life. Thanks for the help in my search.
Happy we could help! Feel free to shoot us a email or message if you have any questions!
You guys gotta do a review on the new Hankook Dynapro XT's!👌
We need more videos on the kenda klever. I have the at2 and love them

KO2’s are the best tires I’ve ever seen in the snow
Haven’t found a better tire than the duratracs. Run them on my dually, 4Runner, and wife’s 1500 Chevy.
Firestone destination x/t ones of the most underrated tire in my opinion
I have these on my 12 Sierra. Live in MI upper peninsula and they do great in deep snow, slush. Decent in mud and sand too. Would buy again
How did the Toyo AT3s not make this list? They are FANTASTIC tires!
Consider the source.
Region only matters some. What also matters is what time of year you use your rig and where you are willing to compromise and where you aren’t.
Planning on a set of Atturo trail blade xt's on my F150
Ironman Mt excellent snow tire and pretty good mud
Looks like you were in Marinette County. I think I recognize Veteran's Falls and Goodman Park.
Here in Washington, I'm doing split duty with a Blizzak WS90 in winter and ExtremeContact Sport 02 in the summer.
...
Oh, off-road? I go with a Tusk Emex T-45 intermediate-terrain motocross tire. The traction isn't quite as good as the gummy enduro options, but I like the sharper handling and directional stability of the firmer motocross carcass.
When you say going to a mud terrain you should upgrade the driveline, suspension and brakes, do you have any videos that go more into this? Getting a JKUR and live in Georgetown so want mud terrains and 3pms tires as we’re keeping our daily driver so not as worried about tread lasting longer. So want good year round trail tires to swap on.
I know the LEO patrols that handle the off road areas around Las Vegas, NV and MT Charleston(Which is the snow resort outside of Vegas) use BFG KO2's. I've also used those for the past decade, although I haven't gotten them on my new truck yet, and even in 2H with a lunch box locker I had enough traction to get people easily back on the road who got stuck in the snow up in MT charleston.
That road going up Mt Charleston is sketchy in good weather, can’t imagine it in the bad weather. I can understand wanting maximum traction there👍
What about the Sumitomo Open Range AT? 3peak snow rated in all sizes.
What do you guys think about the Toyo AT3 for winter?
What sizes of the Cooper Rugged Treks have 3 ply sidewalls? Is it just the LT version with 3 plies or do the passenger versions have 3 ply sidewalls as well? I was under the impression the passenger version was a 2 ply sidewall?
Goodyear’s new Wranger Duratrac RT is out now. Have yall tested it to see if they’re worth buying over the OG Duratrac?
I thought the cooper rugged trek wasn’t 3 peak rated. Did they get it now?
I'm.new to this truck world and I'm purchasing a truck 2016 Ford ranger xlt but idk what type for mud terrarain tires and rims
What would you recommend for a Ram 1500 on snow, mud, rain, and dry weather, in Pennsylvania? 40 miles a day highway for work. 20 to 50 miles on weekends to the mountains in the winter to hunt. Off road into the deep forest to a hunting spot.
My latest adventure was with Cooper STT Pro. Great for everything, and they get me anywhere. BUT!! They are wearing down to quickly. Two years and 4 months at 29,341 miles. They are almost shot. At $1400 per set. I can't afford that. Need a better option.
Thank you,
Jeffrey D
Hmm, was going to buy the MT BB’s but, ya got me second guessing my decision. I’m in Rock Hill SC (no snow), tow a 5k trailer daily. Nitto has no mileage warranty so I’ll pass on those. I’m no tire expert but it looks like the Falken would do better on wet roads than the ko2’s? I’m trying to get the longest life out of a tire that I can
I see everyone offroading in modded jeeps, they have rocky terrains and mud. I live right outside of Detroit and have really only washboardy dirt roads, heavy sand, and sandy hills. I have a 04 Silverado Duramax that I use for offroading (I'm the designated rescue guy) so I'm always afraid of getting stuck... Does anyone have any tips? :)
@trailbuilt Filming at Goodman Park 👍
I’d love a review of the Firestone destination XT!
I second this one. Looking to put these on my JKU
I love them. I’m in the 46th parallel. They do great in snow (deep) and slush. I run them through mud and sand when I need to. Highly recommend for a daily driver!
omg. Great channel! New owner of an off road capable vehicle. In New England. Where are some of these locations where you’re filming?? Where do I start to find trials / appropriate for family day trips. Thanks!
Nice to meet you! A lot of the shots in our videos are from out west but occasionally we have some content from the east coast and here in Wisconsin!
Anyone have viewpoints on Yokohama Geolander G015? My Tundra came with G056 and I want better wet traction and snow and ice as well.
baja boss at is pretty close to perfect for the great white north
Which is hilarious to me since I doubt they get much snow in the Baja :P
I live in Colorado and my JKR sees plenty of trail use in the summer and plenty of snow use in the winter. I’m also in ProRock 44 with 5.13’s. I run a 37. I am currently on the Falkens and they have been great. Tell some of the other manufacturers to make a 37 with 3PMS rating and I would have gone that route. The only two I could find with the rating and that size were KO2 and my Falken’s. I have not researched in about a year though.
MT Baja Boss AT @ 37x12.5 has the 3PMS rating
Falken Wildpeak AT3W?
@@TheRealMikeWilly yes
@@nwatkins176 I freakin love my AT3W's. I just wish they made the 37's on a R15. Currently on a 33x12.5R15 and my 4.88's in my XJ do not love tires this small. She's hot off the line and until 2nd gear tops out I'm smokin tuned WRX STI's, boosted Miatas, basically if it goes stututu, they're lookin at taillights till 2nd gear runs out 😂. But 3500rpm @ 70 is not chill.
Could y’all do a review on Kumho at52? There isn’t that much info I could find out on that tire. Thank you.
Sadly we have not! Not a bad idea to add it to the list though.
Can you guys start including NOKIAN Tires? I’ve had great luck with them with my last 2 cars and now that I’ve got a truck, I’d love to see how they stack up against the more well known names
Great suggestion! We can add it to the list!
Thinking of getting Falcons wildpeak for my telluride 20” wheels
Any recommendations on wheels? Im planning on daily highway drive and weekend trails.
Maybe a set of Methods, Anthems, or even Fuels would look/perform well!
I live in Southern California and do most of my off-road in my Tacoma in the desert and Baja California. Can’t decide for either the KO2 or Falken at3w. Any advice ?
I say the AT3W's only because of the terrain you are driving on!
Any one have experience with the Nokian Outpost AT?
Do you sell V-bar cleated chains for driving on icy trails? They’re the only thing that really works on ice.
We don't. Sorry!
You must have made this video for me. You knew the ridge grapplers were crap in the Buffalo NY region. Gonna try the duratrac again
I live in northern New Hampshire and I love my duratracs
I’m in western NY lots of lake effect… highly recommend the wildpeak at3w’s
I've heard great things about wildpeak and I loved my duratrac. These ridge graps just aren't it for our area. I'll have to try the at3s
kanati mt was the worse tire I ever had , shook so bad had to take em off and sell them ,they sent 2 replacements that took 10 ounces to balance and they still took 8 , baught maxxis rzr mts wich are still kinda a hybrid and after 2 sets and 100k miles they'll be hard to beat ,but I'm trying the baja boss AT ( hybrids ) next to see about more road traction for pulling my trailer and being able to stop, the maxxis rzr MT was awsome ,very quite and smooth even at 115mph , 2 hrs each way commute to work they were amazing, 2010 xterra offroad , PA

SUBSCRIBED!
Did we just become best friends???
@@TrailBuilt oh yes we did. Saving up for my first Jeep and have loved all your content. Very educational learning alot. Thank you and Happy Holidays!
Right now Mississippi is getting Michigan weather rain sleet and snow the only weather that is predictable is cold in January hot in August and rainy in the fall I use AT tires nice vid
Goodyear Duratrac are not all 3PMS rated
What do you think about copper discoverer stt pro any input would be helpful..
Definitely a solid tire! Have seen a couple of guys around here running them no issues, I do wish we had more content on them however!
I live at 64* N. Forty -below is more common.
So I live in Saint George Utah. I just moved here and don’t know what tire to get. I off road every weekend in a different environment whether it be sand, rock crawling, mud, or slick rocks while also using my vehicle for road use what should I go for?
Kenda Klever R/T is exactly what you are looking for. While they are a bit louder on the road they make up for it with performance in those terrains you are saying you will be encountering on the weekends. Take a look at them sometime! www.trailbuiltoffroad.com/store/tires?sort=popular&brand=Kenda&tmodel=Klever%20R%2FT&saleToggle=0&qdToggle=0

What Maxxis tire would you say is comparable to the Baja Boss AT? Trying to decide between the Razar MT or AT. Thanks, Love your channel.
I live in MT if that helps with your recommendation.
I don’t have direct experience with them but I’ve heard the Maxxis Razr AT is a beast in the snow. YMMV
The Cooper rugged truck isn't three peak rated
Radar renegade rt
Looking to replace these crappy Cooper Discoverer STT's on my H1 with something that does better in the snow but also can handle the trails/rocks. Was set on the Mickey Thompson Baja Boss until you mentioned that the 37x12.5x17 doesn't have the 3 peak rating. Grrr... does anyone have any experience with this specific tire in the snow - specifically the hard packed slick stuff? M/T's do fine overall in the light powdery stuff but suck on the compacted snow.
From all of my research so far, the baja boss a/t is a great tire for all conditions and is highly recommended for driving in the snow. Also from my research, I am pretty sure the reason why the 37x12.50 isn’t 3 peak rated is because the tire is wider than 11 inches. I seriously doubt that it makes that big of a difference. I say you should grab a set of them!
I have the Cooper ST Max as well. They sucked in the snow until I had them siped and then they were ok. For about everything else I’ve grown at them wheeling and overlanding they have been pretty decent. Options are just limited in the size I want (255 80 R17) I’d love to try a Goodyear but they refused to cover a tire under warranty years ago and I swore I’d never buy another set. (Yea I know Goodyear now owns Cooper so my next set will be something else)
I’d honestly want you’re opinion on tires I should run out in Hawaii. Sand dirt roots and 60% rock ,some lave rocks are sharp. Toyota pickup daily driven. Already has 6 inch suspension lift.
Let me take a look for you! What kind of ride do you have?
KO2. Best in sand and amazing for daily
KO2's are a solid go to!
I’m in Virginia. 2023 4Runner orp. What’s best?
I'm not sure which region of Virginia you're in, but that state is considered to have four seasons. This means an A/T tire is most likely your best option. The BFGoodrich KO2 A/T and the Falken Wildpeak A/T3W are among the most popular choices for states that experience four seasons. Consider taking a look at those!
Are there winter specific tires that are 35 inches?
Any tire with the siping (squiggly lines) the more the squiggly lines the better in snow along with a softer compound.
Me right now so confused on what tires to purchase. I have a 2013 JKU that came with a 4 inch lift. I live in new England and this is my daily driver but we do hit the trails on the weekends so I need a tire that’s gonna be good in snow, rain and mud I don’t wanna be sliding all over the place or hydroplaning.
Definitely wanna go with 35s
Falken Wildpeaks are a great option so are KO2's!
@@TrailBuilt thank you. Falkens wild peaks are on the list. Thinking it’s what we’re doing
@@TrailBuilt KO2 is Bf Goodrich correct?
Falken
Lol at no Toyo AT3, arguably the best all around AT
You lost me when you put KO2's in your list. They have been rubbish down here is AUSTRALIA for the last few years. Their compound is just not the same and don't like stopping in the wet........ Even their rep admitted to this!!! Yes there are people who swear by them and will disagree with my opinion but there are many who would agree.
Not sure why maxxis razr AT or razr MT don't make the list..
Stop begging for subscribers, if somebody Likes your channel they will Do that automaticly. But no Front your Videos are good 👌
⬆️ "Cough Cough"
You can definitely tell somebody’s never lived in the south east by the way he makes his videos because he thinks it doesn’t get below 40° in the southern part of the states🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
😂 the salt weather damage people's Vehicles is called man-made salt in snow that actually makes it worse to drive on wasting our tax dollars
Blah blah blah.
Just subbed !
