Here are the 6 best all-terrain truck tires with a Mountain/Snowflake Symbol you can buy! For Performance: Pirelli Scorpion All Terrain Plus Best balance in off and on-road: BFGoodrich ALL-TERRAIN T/A KO2 Best snow and ice performance: Nokian ROTIIVA AT Best band for the bucks: Firestone Destination X/T Best in the mud: Goodyear Wrangler DuraTrac!
Car Question The Destination XT looked promising at first, but it has to be absolutely the lightest all terrain in the segment. They’re even lighter than the Wrangler SR-A’s on my 2500HD. Not sure how heavy duty such a light tire could possibly be.
Ko2 is garbage in ice and deep snow compared to a duratrac and the duratrac lasts longer not even a contest there have had 100s of thousands of km experience with both only duratracs on my 3 trucks .
I’ve used the Geolanders in Cleveland Ohio for the last two winters and have been impressed. Good traction in icy conditions, too. I have them in my 2004 Honda Pilot AWD in stock size.
I have 31 inch BFG KO2 ( 3rd winter in Canada ) they do phenomenal on the worse snow dumps that pop up overnight, haven’t gotten stuck ❤️ bonne job sur le review!
@@FornoDan X-AT is hardcore E rated tire built for rocks and mud, pretty close to the MT G003 in performance time with little more life and road worthiness.
I love the Firestone Destination XT I’m in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan and so far 24+ inches of snow already and they are just eating it up I have yet to kick in my 4x4
I have a set of the Nokian Rotiiva AT2s on my GMC and they are an amazing winter performing tire. Without question, they are the best All Weather AT tire on the market if you live in the north. They are not a hard core off road tire but not bad. Their really hard core built for winter conditions. I drove these on solid ice roads past cars they simply could not move and that had to pull over to the side. And this included up inclines. Just amazed how well they perform on ice, snow packed and deep snow.
I’ve been running Duratrac for last six years. No complaints at all. Most truck owners I know run the same. Great in deep snow. Not so much on ice. My last set had 110k they were rated 80k.
For the money, the Falken A/T3W is the tire to buy. Yes, the Duratracs are the overall best for snow and off-road, but I’ve ran those, Hercules Terra-Trac II, and the original Goodyear Wrangler Silent Armour and will say the Falkens surpass them all with the exemption of deep snow, where the Duratracs just edge them out.
On a 2005 dakota I loved the wildpeaks and thought they where good in deep snow the only tire I found better was the general grabber altimax artic but it's a snow tire
General Grabber AT2 (now the ATX) had them for 3 years and almost 70k in southern Ontario snow belt. Good in snow and slush, ok on ice and has never let me down off road. Very similar to the BFGoodrich KO2. Would recommend!
well, that’s a good tire. and probably miles ahead of the ones you had before them. but there’s a few good wi term at tires out 5here besides them. not the ko2 though, but those nokians for sure. edit* a few good WINTER tires
I have the goodyear ultraterrain on my 03 discovery and was very impressed how well they did in the snow. I didnt even realize they were winter rated. They never slipped at all, even under moderate acceleration in the snow and slush. Yeah its full time 4wd but other offroad tires I've had were not as good. Definitely happy with them. They're my first set of Goodyear's.
@@mercedesbenzs600bash Well they did very well in the rain! I’ve run over many things! From wood debris to metal! I live in Florida, USA. It’s between Canada and Mexico. Here we are unfortunately without snow but from what I’ve seen from those who are graced with the phenomenon, they perform well!
Adding a comment even though this video is 4 years old, I ran a set of the Firestone Destination X/T on a 2500HD Diesel - very heavy truck. I got 42,741 miles out of them and I had still room left, probably could have gotten another 4k out of them. I ended up switching them out for kumhos and should have stuck with the X/Ts. They are a lighter tire as in weight and did outstanding in towing/snow/rain/logging trails. Being a lighter tire helps with diesel mileage. Crazy good tire. I ran a set of the Nokians on a F150 and got 68,319 miles out of a set. Great tire as well but definitely not for a heavy truck. They will wear out quickly. Great in the snow, gravel, and a bit of mud.
PERELLI SCORPION ALL TERRAIN PLUS. Extremely underrated Tire. This thing does excellent in snow, sounds more quiet than just about any tire out there, and has one of the sharpest most unique and attractive appearance. On top of that it will behave more like a Road tire when you're on the pavement. We'll do it review sometime in the future on my channel.
I have the Perelli Scorpions on my Tacoma and love them. Extremely quiet, aggressive off road, great on wet roads and snow. Pull a small camper everywhere with them. Couldn’t be more pleased. Finically, much less costly than most AT tires too.
I work for a large snow removal company in Michigan with a fleet of around 20 plow trucks. I was looking for tires for my 04 Grand Cherokee and noticed all the trucks are running DuraTracs. When I asked about them I was told they work the best in the snow, good enough for me. I ended up putting a 255/80-17 on my Jeep and yes, they do work great in the snow.
Bfg ko2 so far is the best tire I ever owned. Accidentally drove through a ditch yesterday in the snow(about 6 inches of snow) and I had no trouble at all. Felt like a pothole. Today was a little more icy and they still did great.
Got my 275 60 20 Dura tracs for 800 installed at the end of 2019 on my 2016 silverado and couldn't be happier with them. Lightest all terran tire also so only lost 1mpg. They make my black blacked out double cab 4wd custom look like a 60k truck even though I bought it for 30k with 7k miles on it.
Had K02s and found them good but I just replaced them with the pierellis. Only got 200km so far but find them quieter and smoother. Great review. Thanks for posting.
@@juliosdiy3206 it's a little noisy but thats to be expected with the aggressive treads. Doesnt bother me.. Sold the truck and got a newer one. Bought new duratracs. 276/65r20's. Loving it!
I’ve had Firestone Destination AT2’s on my 2012 F150 for 3 years. 20k miles. They are still quiet and smooth. Very good in the snow. The one issue is that while the center of the tire is wearing well, the tire shoulders are wearing faster. Alignment was done during purchase. Have maintained proper tire pressures. This may be attributed to one of two things. One is the majority of my driving is local, which involves a lot more tight turning at low speed. The other is that the tires are construction wise on the light side for a half ton 4x4.
I ran the K02's for years on my 07 Duramax. They are good for the first winter, okay for the second, and then terrible in the winter after that (so I got a second set of rims and winter tires). But in the non-snow seasons they were awesome. Great on pavement, rain, mud, off road, etc. and great to tow with. In 13 years I never had a single flat tire on K02's, which was 355,000kms on them and half of that was not paved roads while driving with purpose. So I would 100% buy them for a non-winter AT tire I would never buy them thinking they are of any use in the winter, atleast in western Canada (prairies/foothills/crown land/mountains/backroads).
I just purchased four Goodyear Ultra Terrain’s (three peak snow certified)…..I think these are the nicest truck tire I’ve ever had. I was shocked how little weight they need and they are smooth. Can’t wait for the snow!
Great video! Had the Rotiiva A/T on a Tacoma for a while, and you are totally right - great for cold, winter weather. That said, I’m a huge Yokohama fan, and I don’t go off-road much, so I’d go for the Geolander
After reading how the Goodyear Wrangler Trail runner ATs were so-so, or worse, in snowy conditions, I'm looking at the Rotiiva ATs. How much snow do you get? I can see anywhere from no snow to 6 inches of snow overnight during winter, and city plowing services has been lacking in recent years. I normally run all seasons on my cars and all terrains on my trucks, just because I hate switching tires out twice a year, and seeing how the price is pretty comparable ($137/ea. before fees), I'm really hoping the Rotiiva would be a great year rounder in my scenario for my truck!
@@Dude13450 I didn't use the Rotiiva ATs off-road in any serious way, but they handled hot summers (over 30C/ 90F) and very cold winters (below -20C/-5F) with lots of snow (6-12 inches every few weeks for 3 months) with ease. Highly recommended.
I agree, the K02 are really good in snow and ice. I had them on my 2017 Tacoma TRD pro, and I have them on my 2020 Tacoma TRD pro. They preformed very well, and they look so rugged.
I like the looks of the Pirelli Scorpion and would consider in the future but IMO I would not buy the BFG for winter. Studded Wrangler Duratrac has been my favorite but after 50% tread started wearing unusually uneven.
Im happy with my COOPER DISCOVERER AT3 4S. I have them all year on my VW AMAROK and they do a great job. And I live in Austria (not Australia) and we get plenty of snow here.
i have been using the Nokian ROTIIVA AT on my 2015 Frontier for 13000 miles. Super Impressed. Just dry driving is better. Came off of Falken Wildpeak AT3s, A great tire unto it's self but i won't be looking back for nearly the same price. In the snow they are really sturdy, sure footed. Only complaint if i had one is heavy rain. I have to slow down to 55-60 instead of 65-70. But these tires were not designed for heavy rain.
You need to mention tread depth, that's a major factor in driving through mud and snow. DuraTracs are great in deep snow. They came with 16/32nds of tread, now the new models have 18/32nds. Grabber ATX's look worth a try.
Love my Nokian Rotiva AT Plus on my 18 F250 6.2L gasser. Have about 20k miles on them, 4000 towing my 10,000lb 5th wheel camper and just scrubbed 80% on the front and 60% on the rear. Rotating them soon
Get Nautical Agreed. I wish they had earned the mountain/snowflake symbol. However, as someone whom also tows I really don’t think I’d be willing to trust another tire as much as do the TerrainContacts.
I disagree about the Goodyear duratracs. I’ve had them on my 2015 ram 4x4 for 130,000 Kms now and still have tread. In the winter WOW unreal traction , I highly recommend over everything else and I’ve driven most of them, plus with the load E you can air them down quite low or inflate them quite high
I had a set of Duratracs on my 3/4 ton suburban in 265/75/16 and I have to say they were the worst tires I have ever owned. They wore evenly but were bald at 24k miles. I'm running Cooper AT3's but went up to 285/75/16 and have been more than happy with them so far there's just over 45K miles on them and still have about 60% tread left.
I just got the Destination AT2 and love them so far. I have a short video of them on a snowy icy road and they were awesome. And quiet on the highway also.
northern Saskatchewan, gravel and large rocks, ice covered roads, seen a few good tires and bad ones as well. ran a jeep jk with 35s, dodge 2500 with 35s, now titan with 285-60-20 falken wildpeaks at, measures almost 34 inches tall. best tire so far, cooper st max, didnt even need 4x4 when it was bad winter driving. falken wildpeaks have been awesome this winter so far, the ko2s were not very good at all, will not buy another set. seen generals do alright as well. the scorpion tires work really well in snow, i have 2 nephews running them.
I have the #1 pick on my truck. Good for snow and better than expected in sand, but could definitely use more wet grip ability. Then it would be that perfect tire.
I have to say the Kanati Trail Hogs have been pretty freaking amazing. Originally I thought it had to be the price point that was influencing me. Twelve thousand miles later, a 80-20% mixture of snow plowing, mud and rain they still continue to surprise me. At under seven bills for FOUR pre studded ten ply LT275/65/r20’s is pretty freakin sweet. With the $700+ you save over the DuraTrac’s you can buy a set of bitchin’ dedicated snow’s.... 🤷🏼♂️.
I have run just about every A/T Hybrid out there I now run the 285-60-20 Kanati Trail Hogs on my 2020 Ram1500 and they are making all the other guys look silly and I paid 850.00 I live in Iowa.
@@racerx3669 I got mine through discount tire they price matched a small dealer, Not sure if you can still get them for that price since they have gotten more popular but it won't be that far off. I took them through snow, ice, mud etc they are pretty awesome for the price !
@@Imperatore7777 top notch! I also had the KO2.. a disaster in rain/wet and really noisy the older they get the worse it is.. never again, will order the Yoko's! greatings from Belgium
Exactly what I was going to say. User ratings are higher for the atx also. People that give them a chance love them. About 50-70 bucks cheaper per tire too.
@@CarQuestion You rent one of their Jeeps and they give you a list of recommended trails, and a list of prohibited (highly technical) trails. We went up Gemini Bridges trail and down Shafer Trail. The following year we tried to go down Gemini Bridges trail in a rented Ram 1500 on stock Goodyear Wranglers. We didn't get 100 yards before one of the tires was sliced open by a sharp rock - between the treads, not the sidewall. The people at the tire shops in Moab deal with cut tires all day long.
I used BFG AT's for many years on my ZR2 S10 and loved them. I drive a 3/4 ton suburban now and I couldn't justify the cost for a 285/75/16 so I started looking around for something else. Duratracs on a heavy rig were trash. I bought a set of Cooper AT3's and wish I had switched long ago. Love the diversity of them on all surfaces and deep snow.
I have had the KO2's on my truck for the last four years. I put about 45,000 miles on them and they are trashed. For the last 6 months they have gotten really loud and vibrate the truck badly. Yesterday I ordered the Pirelli's and I'm hoping to get decent wear with them. I can't wait to get back to a smooth and quiet ride again.
KEVIN WHY DIDNT YOU ORDER TOYO OPEN COUNTRY AT3 ? THEY ARE THE BEST BUT MAYBE YOU CANT AFFORD THEM. BUT THEY ARE ONLY SLIGHTLY MORE THAN THE BFG’S YOU SAID YOU HAD. CANCEL YOUR OREDET AND GO TOYO.
1 month ago bought 12 4runner sr5 with 265 70r17 SL michelin defender ltx, M&S. Awesome winter performance without 3p... symbol. I saw some testing that shows it better than most 3p... rated tires but not blizzaks for example. Crawled in 4lo 1s with atrac up a very and in parts steep rough icy and muddy road with no issues. Atrac barely engaged. This is a street tire, isn't it and I had been planning to switch to firestone xt (255/75r17) mainly because of the lighter weight and no toughness issues I've heard about. I was shocked how good these michelins are and generally I don't like michelins. I despised my x-ice that I tried out about 10 years ago on a corolla and went back to blizzaks. I have about 50% tread life left on defenders and will have some time to decide on the next purchase. I will take a look a nokians and thank you for the video, will subscribe.
Ko2 for "Balanced Performance" I drive in Central Saskatchewan but gotta listen to the Frenchman when it comes to snow. Great driving by the way. Merci & Bon Chance.
Ive worked on vehicles and changed tires and driven on and off road in ditches and fields in 4 feet of snow my entire life. Have had service trucks with some of these tires and have driven at least 1 vehicle with all of these kinds of tires. I live up in northern canada and ive teated them all out. And i must say in MY experience the duratrac is the best snow tire you can buy, but they camt be real wide, like any tire tou need to slice through the deep snow, i had 235/85/17 duratracs on my 3/4 ton chevy any i could go literally anywhere in 2wd. I hit the ditch so many times on purpose (with buddies behind me) just to test them out and i may have gotten stuck in 2wd but in 4x4 i didnt and the snow was 3/4 the way up my tire covering almost the whole wheel most of the time. They do wear out kind of fast if your an aggressive driver. Trust me when i say if your a real driver you’ll appreciate them.
sorry but we won't agree on that! They might be better in deep snow, but on the road that's ont what you face everyday! And they are crazy slippery when it get cold, on ice, and when they are worn. thanks for sharing!
@@CarQuestion Safe to assume that the Yokohamas will suffer the same fate on ice and in the cold?? I haven't tried them yet during a Montreal winter...
I have the 35x12.5x 17 KO2s on my 2019 JL. I love them in the snow. Here in North west IL. we can get some deep snow. No problem getting around. I had them on my 2009 JK so I have been running the for a few years
My outback wilderness came with the Yocohama and firt time in heavy rain this morning in Chicago. I'll have to wait until the winter snow comes, to find out how good it really is.
FALKEN WILDPEAK A/T with 3pmsf is also best option if you don find your tire size from the listed ones by CQ. All the tyres he recommended couldnt fit Atlas. Still KO2 is number one choice.
All depends on your use. I’m surprised the Duratracs were knocked down for their partial wear winter performance. KO2s are useless in the winter conditions when they get to the 50% tread wear mark, and poor traction in the rain (even when new). Falken Wildpeak AT3Ws are far superior in these conditions. KO2s are better off-road. We’ll see how our Duratracs treat us off road this summer.
Eric Cantin I can second your opinion! Had KO2s for about 17k first winter great second winter (11k on them) didn’t feel confident at all in winter conditions going well under speed limit so say 35mph .. said it was a fluke until spring on a 1/2 hr journey every stop light in 2wd in rain/wet pavement giving it quarter to half throttle my rear end was everywhere!! My buddy is a store manager at a tire shop, called him and said you got some 275/70 18 duratracs in stock? Yup! called my wife and said honey these Bfgs have to go today I’ve had enough! had duratracs on my truck that day for cost and haven’t looked back only have 10k on them now but comparing both of them new the duratracs win hands down no comparison I’ve gone 50mph on ice not knowing it was a thin sheet of ice when other’s were going 30 cause they just grip you don’t feel any kind of slipping or sliding on any terrain!
k02 is not a good winter tire at all. check all the forums. if you had shitty tires before that sure, they seem good. and for dry weather, they’re great in a jeep. but for snow, ice, rain.....no bueno. i haven’t even ran 5hem. i just believe 5he owners after a while. i’d say durtrac for winter if your more aggressive off road, and nokian at for winter if your less. both are good in ice and snow it seems. i’m leaning towards the nokians because of road noise and mileage. i hardly go off-road and i live in minnesota. i want to rant about dedicated snow tires and dedicated summers, but this isn’t the place.
@@racerx3669 I live in Georgia but I travel a lot up north, and been in some icy conditions. I have the Nokian Rotiiva at version, not the plus version that I think is perhaps more winter rated? I love that they drive great, are quiet, and I really have never lost traction in much of anything. Mud, rain, small hurricane, icy hills, doesn't matter, they seem to do great. They also have a long tread life, I am at about 50% with 30k miles on them. I am sure the KO2's do much better in mud due to the aggressive tread though.
Had Goodyear Duratrac but was disappointed in their performance in snow deeper than 6", switch to Cooper AT3 LT and they are a better performer in deeper snow and grip better on icey roads. A must for Michigan.
I had the AT3 on my 2013 Ram 1500 they were the worst tires in snow and mud that ive ever had and ive been trucking for 40 years the tread seems to loaded up with mud and snow dont buy these AT3 Coopers
My favorite truck or SUV all terrain tire with a snow peak mark is the Back Country tire sold at Les Schwab. I liked it so much, I put them on my wife’s Kia sorrento . I have had not one issue with them in the Pacific Northwest and all their mountain passes in our state; which are the most dangerous in all of North American. Check them out.
I have the Falken all weather but have a dedicated of studded Nokians for winter. I like the Falken for late season hunting but its no where near as good as the Nokian on snow pack and ice.
@@CarQuestion Hakka 8 SUV (I think...too cold to go verify.) They're the ones with the air pockets under the stud. This is supposed to cause less damage to pavement and be quieter. My honest impression is that the grip on hard cold ice is not as good as my first Hakka SUV 5's. Those were simply amazing. They turned my FJ Cruiser from a terror below -5 to a dream. The electronic nannies were awful without good tires. I had to keep it in 4Hi most of the winter. Now I only use it in storms. The rest of the time I rely on the computer.
I've been running BFG AT's of different generation designs since the '80's on Jeeps, mid-size and full size trucks, SUV's and even a 2wd E250 work van. I really don't look at many other tires. The BFG's are such a great all around tire. Expensive? Yes but you get what you pay for in this case.
I have tried three of these 5 tires, and 1 of the tires i have tried rates above these, its the falken wildpeaks at3w's, aggressive tread and sidewall and great in snow, and also very cheap price
we screw steel stud blackies screws into our boots for walking on roof tops and ice also in our truck tires,by the time winter is over they are mostly gone from the tire and cleaned for next year.
@@CarQuestion I bought a set of Rovtiiva AT Plus for my 2019 F-150 after watching your Jeep review video on them. From Saskatchewan to Labrador, and everything in-between they have been awesome. Glad I saw your channel and went for them. Quiet, confident, and great in other-than-pavement situations. Thanks!
Which “All-Terrain” is best if winter driving is your top priority ? I do light off-roading. Dirt and gravel roads, as well as sandy beaches when I go fishing, is basically what I do. But in wintertime I need a good tire that brakes well.
Question for you mate. On wet roads/hard rainy days would you prefer the pirelli scorpion AT Plus or the Yokohama Geolander AT go15? We have been getting hit with a lot of hard rain this summer and I'm in need of new tires soon. Which would you recommend driving during rain 🌧️⛈️
I have had ko2's and duratrac as well as the Toyo open country R/T all terrain tire and I have to say the duratrac was better for offroad and winter snow. Also not to noisy
Goodyear wrangler authority 3peak snow rated At tires that look like Mt tires! 265 70 17 for 615 dollars! With road hazard lifetime balance and rotation Goodyear only make them for Walmart. My first set of tires from Walmart.
I have the KO2 on a Sierra....My 2 cents. Great in snow and very quite for a all terrain. I test drove the Duratrac on another Sierra. I found them noisy. A hum on dry pavement.
I love the ko2s but in winter there is no comparison to a dedicated winter tire on ice i took handsom robs advice in the comments and picked up a set of studded Hercules avalanche extremes and will never run ats in winter again. thanks rob
I like all your recommendations. You left out one very good tire for trucks or SUV's that can be run all year long and they have a snow flake. You can actually put studs in them as well if you choose to use them as a winter tire only - the Cooper Discoverer M+S. I've had a few sets of these and they are fantastic on snow and ice and as a general all year tire and will handle a fair amount of mud too. Check them out.
My question is, what type of snow are you talking about? The baby powder which any tire can handle or for those of us who live in the North East ( Me, mh, by) what the people who live in the mountains. Driving on grease?
Great video, I am looking for new tires, and nice to see some other brands. I live in rural Southern Alberta, the B.F. Goodrich do not last well, my wife had them on her f- 350, didn't even last a year. My daughter has the Duratrac, she loves them. I have had Falken AT3 wild peaks, they were great. Toyo have been great for me. I have never ran the Firestone or the geolanders. Anyone have experience with these 2. Thank you for your video🙂👍
@Nicolae Visan if your getting 90 000 km outta them Duratracs, I would get another set. The Falkens I only ran thru the winter months, so probably half the year, and they have a ton of tread left. So they are probably comparable. I usually stick with what has been good for me. Hope that helps. 🙂
No Falken Wildpeak A/T3W's or Toyo Open Country A/T III's..??? These two significantly blow the Firestones away, and are easily better than the Pirellis and equal OR better BFGoodrich KO2's. I get this is all your opinion, but c'mon, this really isn't a complete list without the two I mentioned.
Out of curiosity what vehicle and size were you running? The 235/75-15 are infamous for those recalls, but on fords. My old fords door sticker recommends 26psi on that size, mean while every other SUV I’ve seen running that size recommends 30-32 psi. Low pressure can cause those problems, puts too much heat into the tire, personally seen this with a set of Kumhos on and explorer. But yes, Firestone has lost me as a customer because I had a set set of Destination A/Ts, and they lasted me about 15000 miles before they were bald, so I can’t fathom spending such a premium on tires that won’t last more then a year of casual highway driving with the occasional trail and snow, even though they were great in the snow and off road, just no tread life. Same with those Yokohama’s in this video, 10,000 miles and they’re right at the snow wear bars, which is about 50% tread life, and I’m now noticing some poor wet weather traction. When they were new they were great but would not recommend the Yokohama’s either.
I owned Nokians on my forester. Never again. Would not handle the winter. Got rid of them after only 8 months, hated to spend the money but didn’t feel safe with these at all. Maybe just on a dry road. I read how other people love how great they are in snow and ice. Guess I know otherwise

I have a set of the Nokian Rotiiva AT2s on my GMC and they are an amazing winter performing tire. Without question, they are the best All Weather AT tire on the market if you live in the north. They are not a hard core off road tire but not bad. Their really hard core built for winter conditions. I drove these on solid ice roads past cars they simply could not move and that had to pull over to the side. And this included up inclines. Just amazed how well they perform on ice, snow packed and deep snow.
I too agree with KO2s. I've put them to test in CO winter on-road and off-road, very happy with it.
I’ve been running Duratrac for last six years. No complaints at all. Most truck owners I know run the same. Great in deep snow. Not so much on ice. My last set had 110k they were rated 80k.

On a 2005 dakota I loved the wildpeaks and thought they where good in deep snow the only tire I found better was the general grabber altimax artic but it's a snow tire
General Grabber AT2 (now the ATX) had them for 3 years and almost 70k in southern Ontario snow belt. Good in snow and slush, ok on ice and has never let me down off road. Very similar to the BFGoodrich KO2. Would recommend!
Duratracs all the way. Been running them on my vehicles for 13 years all over Canada and would not even consider putting anything else on.
well, that’s a good tire. and probably miles ahead of the ones you had before them. but there’s a few good wi term at tires out 5here besides them. not the ko2 though, but those nokians for sure.
edit* a few good WINTER tires
I have the goodyear ultraterrain on my 03 discovery and was very impressed how well they did in the snow. I didnt even realize they were winter rated. They never slipped at all, even under moderate acceleration in the snow and slush. Yeah its full time 4wd but other offroad tires I've had were not as good. Definitely happy with them. They're my first set of Goodyear's.
Another good tyre is the Falken Wildpeak ATW3 if you want to check it out. Has the snowflake on the side but is no snowflake off-road.
How well did they perform in the rain and snow???
@@mercedesbenzs600bash Well they did very well in the rain! I’ve run over many things! From wood debris to metal! I live in Florida, USA. It’s between Canada and Mexico. Here we are unfortunately without snow but from what I’ve seen from those who are graced with the phenomenon, they perform well!
@@Splagnate Thanks a lot,there so many really good ones to choose from,it really seems like they all perform pretty well in the elements...
The yokohomas has the newest compound/design. It is far more capable than the subtle tread may indicate
Been rocking the falken wildpeak at3w and have not had any issues in snow and ice. Working great.
I have the Nokians on a 2wd tundra and for a 2wd they are impressive in the snow. I have also done some light off-roading and had no issues with them
Adding a comment even though this video is 4 years old, I ran a set of the Firestone Destination X/T on a 2500HD Diesel - very heavy truck. I got 42,741 miles out of them and I had still room left, probably could have gotten another 4k out of them. I ended up switching them out for kumhos and should have stuck with the X/Ts. They are a lighter tire as in weight and did outstanding in towing/snow/rain/logging trails. Being a lighter tire helps with diesel mileage. Crazy good tire. I ran a set of the Nokians on a F150 and got 68,319 miles out of a set. Great tire as well but definitely not for a heavy truck. They will wear out quickly. Great in the snow, gravel, and a bit of mud.
PERELLI SCORPION ALL TERRAIN PLUS. Extremely underrated Tire. This thing does excellent in snow, sounds more quiet than just about any tire out there, and has one of the sharpest most unique and attractive appearance.
On top of that it will behave more like a Road tire when you're on the pavement.
We'll do it review sometime in the future on my channel.
Did you get to doing the review? I’m interested to see. 🇨🇦👍🏼
I have the Perelli Scorpions on my Tacoma and love them. Extremely quiet, aggressive off road, great on wet roads and snow. Pull a small camper everywhere with them. Couldn’t be more pleased. Finically, much less costly than most AT tires too.
I work for a large snow removal company in Michigan with a fleet of around 20 plow trucks. I was looking for tires for my 04 Grand Cherokee and noticed all the trucks are running DuraTracs. When I asked about them I was told they work the best in the snow, good enough for me. I ended up putting a 255/80-17 on my Jeep and yes, they do work great in the snow.
General Grabber ATX. Best I’ve ever had and I’ve had duratracs and ko 2’s
studded or not?
They are good just wear out fast. I've grown to like the falken wildpeak at3w. Better then k02 and duratracs.
Car Question no studs
My general grabbers atx’s have 60k miles on them and it’s 50/50 gravel roads. Have held up great. Will be putting a new set on this fall
Hey shawn your atx are they lt or p rated
Bfg ko2 so far is the best tire I ever owned. Accidentally drove through a ditch yesterday in the snow(about 6 inches of snow) and I had no trouble at all. Felt like a pothole. Today was a little more icy and they still did great.
I skipped them for the Yoko's, they are awsome and perfect on the road, wet too, KO2 is slippery and dangerous in the wet, thus looks good
Got my 275 60 20 Dura tracs for 800 installed at the end of 2019 on my 2016 silverado and couldn't be happier with them. Lightest all terran tire also so only lost 1mpg. They make my black blacked out double cab 4wd custom look like a 60k truck even though I bought it for 30k with 7k miles on it.
I got Hercules Avalanche Xtreme’s on my tundra and these are absolute beasts in the snow and work well on the ice!
wha did you run previously?
I love my Duratracs on my Tacoma. Great grip in snow and mud.
Had K02s and found them good but I just replaced them with the pierellis. Only got 200km so far but find them quieter and smoother. Great review. Thanks for posting.
I live in Wisconsin and love my duratracs. Been driving 4 years with duratracs and haven't had a problem what so ever!
Same 255/75/17 great for winter
Any noise thats noticeable bothering?
@@juliosdiy3206 it's a little noisy but thats to be expected with the aggressive treads. Doesnt bother me.. Sold the truck and got a newer one. Bought new duratracs. 276/65r20's. Loving it!
I’ve had Firestone Destination AT2’s on my 2012 F150 for 3 years. 20k miles. They are still quiet and smooth. Very good in the snow. The one issue is that while the center of the tire is wearing well, the tire shoulders are wearing faster. Alignment was done during purchase. Have maintained proper tire pressures. This may be attributed to one of two things. One is the majority of my driving is local, which involves a lot more tight turning at low speed. The other is that the tires are construction wise on the light side for a half ton 4x4.
I have the scorpion AT plus on my x class and they are fantastic
They were my second choice if I could not get the coopers AT3 4S. I got the coopers.
I ran the K02's for years on my 07 Duramax. They are good for the first winter, okay for the second, and then terrible in the winter after that (so I got a second set of rims and winter tires). But in the non-snow seasons they were awesome. Great on pavement, rain, mud, off road, etc. and great to tow with. In 13 years I never had a single flat tire on K02's, which was 355,000kms on them and half of that was not paved roads while driving with purpose. So I would 100% buy them for a non-winter AT tire I would never buy them thinking they are of any use in the winter, atleast in western Canada (prairies/foothills/crown land/mountains/backroads).
Merci Mat! Excellent review. Tu m'a bcp aidé dans mon choix avec ce vidéo
I just purchased four Goodyear Ultra Terrain’s (three peak snow certified)…..I think these are the nicest truck tire I’ve ever had. I was shocked how little weight they need and they are smooth. Can’t wait for the snow!
i have Kumho Road Venture ar51 on my 1989 GMC c1500 i like them they do great in the snow and rain not so great on ice but still not a bad tire
Ice is always hard to cope with if you do a tire design for summer also!
I love cumho's
good vid and totally agree BFG AT K02 on a range rover in deep snow will keep you going when everything else is stuck 👍
I live in NH, The BFG is amazing in snow, I absolutely love them.
Great video! Had the Rotiiva A/T on a Tacoma for a while, and you are totally right - great for cold, winter weather. That said, I’m a huge Yokohama fan, and I don’t go off-road much, so I’d go for the Geolander
After reading how the Goodyear Wrangler Trail runner ATs were so-so, or worse, in snowy conditions, I'm looking at the Rotiiva ATs. How much snow do you get? I can see anywhere from no snow to 6 inches of snow overnight during winter, and city plowing services has been lacking in recent years. I normally run all seasons on my cars and all terrains on my trucks, just because I hate switching tires out twice a year, and seeing how the price is pretty comparable ($137/ea. before fees), I'm really hoping the Rotiiva would be a great year rounder in my scenario for my truck!
@@Dude13450 I didn't use the Rotiiva ATs off-road in any serious way, but they handled hot summers (over 30C/ 90F) and very cold winters (below -20C/-5F) with lots of snow (6-12 inches every few weeks for 3 months) with ease. Highly recommended.
I got 35x12.50 17 BFG a/t ko2 on my 95 ram here in Michigan and i love them. I use them all seasons they perform awesome.
I agree, the K02 are really good in snow and ice. I had them on my 2017 Tacoma TRD pro, and I have them on my 2020 Tacoma TRD pro. They preformed very well, and they look so rugged.
toyo at3 will make those look like a summer performance tire squirreling around in the snow
I like the looks of the Pirelli Scorpion and would consider in the future but IMO I would not buy the BFG for winter. Studded Wrangler Duratrac has been my favorite but after 50% tread started wearing unusually uneven.
I have General Grabber ATX's on my 2018 f150 crewcab. Similar to the BF KO's. They seem to work about as good as well and are a little less expensive.
Sumitomo Encounter AT is the tire I have on my 4-Runner.
It’s fantastic and on the quiet side.
Im happy with my COOPER DISCOVERER AT3 4S. I have them all year on my VW AMAROK and they do a great job. And I live in Austria (not Australia) and we get plenty of snow here.
I have them to 2 -3foot snow. No problem. Excellent snow on snow traction
i have been using the Nokian ROTIIVA AT on my 2015 Frontier for 13000 miles. Super Impressed. Just dry driving is better. Came off of Falken Wildpeak AT3s, A great tire unto it's self but i won't be looking back for nearly the same price. In the snow they are really sturdy, sure footed. Only complaint if i had one is heavy rain. I have to slow down to 55-60 instead of 65-70. But these tires were not designed for heavy rain.
You need to mention tread depth, that's a major factor in driving through mud and snow. DuraTracs are great in deep snow. They came with 16/32nds of tread, now the new models have 18/32nds. Grabber ATX's look worth a try.
Love my Nokian Rotiva AT Plus on my 18 F250 6.2L gasser. Have about 20k miles on them, 4000 towing my 10,000lb 5th wheel camper and just scrubbed 80% on the front and 60% on the rear. Rotating them soon
do you know what the difference in the plus version is, I have the regular rotiiva at ones?
Continental all terrain contact at are amazing too. Good off-road and quiet on road. No loss of mpg and got 80k miles out of my set.
Get Nautical Agreed. I wish they had earned the mountain/snowflake symbol. However, as someone whom also tows I really don’t think I’d be willing to trust another tire as much as do the TerrainContacts.
Not very good in the snow
I disagree about the Goodyear duratracs. I’ve had them on my 2015 ram 4x4 for 130,000 Kms now and still have tread. In the winter WOW unreal traction , I highly recommend over everything else and I’ve driven most of them, plus with the load E you can air them down quite low or inflate them quite high
I had a set of Duratracs on my 3/4 ton suburban in 265/75/16 and I have to say they were the worst tires I have ever owned.
They wore evenly but were bald at 24k miles.
I'm running Cooper AT3's but went up to 285/75/16 and have been more than happy with them so far there's just over 45K miles on them and still have about 60% tread left.
💯 I have 34,000 miles on mine on a f350 and they are the best tire iv ever had in the snow
Goodyear tires suck in wet snow
@@rook3364 well that’s a well thought out thorough reply. Lmao
I just got the Destination AT2 and love them so far. I have a short video of them on a snowy icy road and they were awesome. And quiet on the highway also.
Cooper AT3 4s is a great blend.
northern Saskatchewan, gravel and large rocks, ice covered roads, seen a few good tires and bad ones as well. ran a jeep jk with 35s, dodge 2500 with 35s, now titan with 285-60-20 falken wildpeaks at, measures almost 34 inches tall.
best tire so far, cooper st max, didnt even need 4x4 when it was bad winter driving. falken wildpeaks have been awesome this winter so far, the ko2s were not very good at all, will not buy another set. seen generals do alright as well. the scorpion tires work really well in snow, i have 2 nephews running them.
I have the #1 pick on my truck. Good for snow and better than expected in sand, but could definitely use more wet grip ability. Then it would be that perfect tire.
He never mentioned the Toyo AT3. I have and love them.
I have to say the Kanati Trail Hogs have been pretty freaking amazing. Originally I thought it had to be the price point that was influencing me. Twelve thousand miles later, a 80-20% mixture of snow plowing, mud and rain they still continue to surprise me. At under seven bills for FOUR pre studded ten ply LT275/65/r20’s is pretty freakin sweet. With the $700+ you save over the DuraTrac’s you can buy a set of bitchin’ dedicated snow’s.... 🤷🏼♂️.
I have run just about every A/T Hybrid out there I now run the 285-60-20 Kanati Trail Hogs on my 2020 Ram1500 and they are making all the other guys look silly and I paid 850.00 I live in Iowa.
@@DROPTINE huh. now i’m curious.
@@racerx3669 I got mine through discount tire they price matched a small dealer, Not sure if you can still get them for that price since they have gotten more popular but it won't be that far off. I took them through snow, ice, mud etc they are pretty awesome for the price !
Kanati trail hogs ok. Looking fo reviews.
Run a set of kanati trail hogs on my work/plow truck..265/65/16..load E...triple mountain peak/snowflake stamped. Amazing tires!! Great looking tire!!
Dura trac best in snow for me stipen works great
FYI had BFG ko2 they lasted 1 year and a half on a full size cargo van. Switched to the Geolander.
whats your experience with the Yoko's? Will order a new set soon. rgds
@@Jackkamerun They have been awesome and so much more quite and smooth.
@@Imperatore7777 top notch! I also had the KO2.. a disaster in rain/wet and really noisy the older they get the worse it is.. never again, will order the Yoko's! greatings from Belgium
@@Jackkamerun Greetings you will be happy cannot go wrong. Have Yokohama on my e46 m3 too haha great tires.
I ran 3 full sets of Yokohama Geolander ATS in the Colorado Mountains I 70. Fantastic all season tire. Yokohama replaced the ATS with GO15 AT.
I'm surprised the General Grabber ATx isn't in this group. I would put it above the BFG and GY.
Exactly what I was going to say. User ratings are higher for the atx also. People that give them a chance love them. About 50-70 bucks cheaper per tire too.
@@davidwethington9320 I've got them 90k km ago and I don't intend to try anything else.
Garbage tire
@@ramtrucks721 do you mind sharing your bad experience? It might help some folks with decision making.
RAM TRUCKS That was helpful.
Canyonlands Jeep Adventures in Moab puts Geolander A/T G015s on their new Jeeps. I've taken one of their Jeeps off road.
that must be a fun drive!
@@CarQuestion You rent one of their Jeeps and they give you a list of recommended trails, and a list of prohibited (highly technical) trails. We went up Gemini Bridges trail and down Shafer Trail. The following year we tried to go down Gemini Bridges trail in a rented Ram 1500 on stock Goodyear Wranglers. We didn't get 100 yards before one of the tires was sliced open by a sharp rock - between the treads, not the sidewall. The people at the tire shops in Moab deal with cut tires all day long.
I used BFG AT's for many years on my ZR2 S10 and loved them. I drive a 3/4 ton suburban now and I couldn't justify the cost for a 285/75/16 so I started looking around for something else. Duratracs on a heavy rig were trash. I bought a set of Cooper AT3's and wish I had switched long ago. Love the diversity of them on all surfaces and deep snow.
I have good year duratrac on my tundra for 3 years now and live in Manitoba and I don’t slide around in rain or ice /snow -40 to + 40
I have had the KO2's on my truck for the last four years. I put about 45,000 miles on them and they are trashed. For the last 6 months they have gotten really loud and vibrate the truck badly. Yesterday I ordered the Pirelli's and I'm hoping to get decent wear with them. I can't wait to get back to a smooth and quiet ride again.
KEVIN WHY DIDNT YOU ORDER TOYO OPEN COUNTRY AT3 ? THEY ARE THE BEST BUT MAYBE YOU CANT AFFORD THEM. BUT THEY ARE ONLY SLIGHTLY MORE THAN THE BFG’S YOU SAID YOU HAD. CANCEL YOUR OREDET AND GO TOYO.
@@kodyadams5561 By the time that you had replied to my comment the tires had already been installed. So, for now, I'm stuck with the Scorpions.
1 month ago bought 12 4runner sr5 with 265 70r17 SL michelin defender ltx, M&S. Awesome winter performance without 3p... symbol. I saw some testing that shows it better than most 3p... rated tires but not blizzaks for example. Crawled in 4lo 1s with atrac up a very and in parts steep rough icy and muddy road with no issues. Atrac barely engaged. This is a street tire, isn't it and I had been planning to switch to firestone xt (255/75r17) mainly because of the lighter weight and no toughness issues I've heard about. I was shocked how good these michelins are and generally I don't like michelins. I despised my x-ice that I tried out about 10 years ago on a corolla and went back to blizzaks. I have about 50% tread life left on defenders and will have some time to decide on the next purchase. I will take a look a nokians and thank you for the video, will subscribe.
Used most of these
Good for mud and snow once the trails r packed there ok at best
Ko2 for "Balanced Performance" I drive in Central Saskatchewan but gotta listen to the Frenchman when it comes to snow. Great driving by the way. Merci & Bon Chance.
Ive worked on vehicles and changed tires and driven on and off road in ditches and fields in 4 feet of snow my entire life. Have had service trucks with some of these tires and have driven at least 1 vehicle with all of these kinds of tires. I live up in northern canada and ive teated them all out. And i must say in MY experience the duratrac is the best snow tire you can buy, but they camt be real wide, like any tire tou need to slice through the deep snow, i had 235/85/17 duratracs on my 3/4 ton chevy any i could go literally anywhere in 2wd. I hit the ditch so many times on purpose (with buddies behind me) just to test them out and i may have gotten stuck in 2wd but in 4x4 i didnt and the snow was 3/4 the way up my tire covering almost the whole wheel most of the time. They do wear out kind of fast if your an aggressive driver. Trust me when i say if your a real driver you’ll appreciate them.
sorry but we won't agree on that! They might be better in deep snow, but on the road that's ont what you face everyday! And they are crazy slippery when it get cold, on ice, and when they are worn.
thanks for sharing!
@@CarQuestion oh ya? lol ive been 220+ k an hour with these in a heavily modded street truck they were fine for me
@@CarQuestion Safe to assume that the Yokohamas will suffer the same fate on ice and in the cold?? I haven't tried them yet during a Montreal winter...
And thx for making this video. Most appreciated!
What about The falken wild peak at3w? That has a snow flake symbol and is a excellent tire aggressive treads
I have the 35x12.5x 17 KO2s on my 2019 JL. I love them in the snow. Here in North west IL. we can get some deep snow. No problem getting around. I had them on my 2009 JK so I have been running the for a few years
Switched from BFG to the Yokohama and so much happier.
Davanti Terratoura A/T is a new to the market all terrain tyre with snowflake symbol and have fantastic grip.!! Try a set of them.
My outback wilderness came with the Yocohama and firt time in heavy rain this morning in Chicago. I'll have to wait until the winter snow comes, to find out how good it really is.
FALKEN WILDPEAK A/T with 3pmsf is also best option if you don find your tire size from the listed ones by CQ. All the tyres he recommended couldnt fit Atlas. Still KO2 is number one choice.
All depends on your use. I’m surprised the Duratracs were knocked down for their partial wear winter performance. KO2s are useless in the winter conditions when they get to the 50% tread wear mark, and poor traction in the rain (even when new). Falken Wildpeak AT3Ws are far superior in these conditions. KO2s are better off-road. We’ll see how our Duratracs treat us off road this summer.
Eric Cantin I can second your opinion! Had KO2s for about 17k first winter great second winter (11k on them) didn’t feel confident at all in winter conditions going well under speed limit so say 35mph .. said it was a fluke until spring on a 1/2 hr journey every stop light in 2wd in rain/wet pavement giving it quarter to half throttle my rear end was everywhere!! My buddy is a store manager at a tire shop, called him and said you got some 275/70 18 duratracs in stock? Yup! called my wife and said honey these Bfgs have to go today I’ve had enough! had duratracs on my truck that day for cost and haven’t looked back only have 10k on them now but comparing both of them new the duratracs win hands down no comparison I’ve gone 50mph on ice not knowing it was a thin sheet of ice when other’s were going 30 cause they just grip you don’t feel any kind of slipping or sliding on any terrain!
k02 is not a good winter tire at all. check all the forums. if you had shitty tires before that sure, they seem good. and for dry weather, they’re great in a jeep. but for snow, ice, rain.....no bueno.
i haven’t even ran 5hem. i just believe 5he owners after a while.
i’d say durtrac for winter if your more aggressive off road, and nokian at for winter if your less. both are good in ice and snow it seems.
i’m leaning towards the nokians because of road noise and mileage. i hardly go off-road and i live in minnesota.
i want to rant about dedicated snow tires and dedicated summers, but this isn’t the place.
i meant to agree.
my bad.
Adios ko2!
@@racerx3669 I live in Georgia but I travel a lot up north, and been in some icy conditions. I have the Nokian Rotiiva at version, not the plus version that I think is perhaps more winter rated? I love that they drive great, are quiet, and I really have never lost traction in much of anything. Mud, rain, small hurricane, icy hills, doesn't matter, they seem to do great. They also have a long tread life, I am at about 50% with 30k miles on them. I am sure the KO2's do much better in mud due to the aggressive tread though.
Had Goodyear Duratrac but was disappointed in their performance in snow deeper than 6", switch to Cooper AT3 LT and they are a better performer in deeper snow and grip better on icey roads. A must for Michigan.
I’d say that the Cooper Discoverer at3 4s will out perform all of the ones you mentioned in snow and ice don’t believe try it!!
Moses Miller AT3 XLT is a fantastic tire that looks a little more aggressive also
Moses Miller..Shut up idiot
I had the AT3 on my 2013 Ram 1500 they were the worst tires in snow and mud that ive ever had and ive been trucking for 40 years the tread seems to loaded up with mud and snow dont buy these AT3 Coopers
@@artfrank649 you want the tires to grip and hold the snow. Snow on snow traction is better than rubber on snow.
yeah but important to keep in mind that AT3 4S are another level on snow (4s is the best snow model)
My favorite truck or SUV all terrain tire with a snow peak mark is the Back Country tire sold at Les Schwab. I liked it so much, I put them on my wife’s Kia sorrento . I have had not one issue with them in the Pacific Northwest and all their mountain passes in our state; which are the most dangerous in all of North American. Check them out.
I have the Falken all weather but have a dedicated of studded Nokians for winter. I like the Falken for late season hunting but its no where near as good as the Nokian on snow pack and ice.
Can't go wrong with a Nokian winter tire! which one did you choose?
@@CarQuestion Hakka 8 SUV (I think...too cold to go verify.) They're the ones with the air pockets under the stud. This is supposed to cause less damage to pavement and be quieter. My honest impression is that the grip on hard cold ice is not as good as my first Hakka SUV 5's. Those were simply amazing. They turned my FJ Cruiser from a terror below -5 to a dream. The electronic nannies were awful without good tires. I had to keep it in 4Hi most of the winter. Now I only use it in storms. The rest of the time I rely on the computer.
I've been running BFG AT's of different generation designs since the '80's on Jeeps, mid-size and full size trucks, SUV's and even a 2wd E250 work van. I really don't look at many other tires. The BFG's are such a great all around tire. Expensive? Yes but you get what you pay for in this case.
Curious as to why you didn’t include the Cooper Discoverer AT3 XLT?
I have tried three of these 5 tires, and 1 of the tires i have tried rates above these, its the falken wildpeaks at3w's, aggressive tread and sidewall and great in snow, and also very cheap price

I took it to mean more types of terrain but I didn't check into anything to verify that. ✌
Which “All-Terrain” is best if winter driving is your top priority ? I do light off-roading. Dirt and gravel roads, as well as sandy beaches when I go fishing, is basically what I do. But in wintertime I need a good tire that brakes well.
We love our Falken Wildpeak MT's and AT's
Duratracs are fantastic in the snow what are you talking about!! One of the best I have used. I live in Michigan and we get a ton of snow and ice
How cold does it get in michigan? Because here it gets to -30/-40 and the rubber may be too stiff at those temps
In a Canadian winter where we can get weeks of -45 weather Duratracs are garbage.
@@Aggressive_Splooge thats what I suspected. No stranger to -40 here in Manitoba
I agree! We get -30 and -40 here in Wisconsin and the duratracs haven't let me down yet.
I agree duratracs are garbage in cold weather they fall off a cliff at around 20°F.
Question for you mate. On wet roads/hard rainy days would you prefer the pirelli scorpion AT Plus or the Yokohama Geolander AT go15?
We have been getting hit with a lot of hard rain this summer and I'm in need of new tires soon. Which would you recommend driving during rain 🌧️⛈️
I have had ko2's and duratrac as well as the Toyo open country R/T all terrain tire and I have to say the duratrac was better for offroad and winter snow. Also not to noisy
Goodyear wrangler authority 3peak snow rated At tires that look like Mt tires! 265 70 17 for 615 dollars! With road hazard lifetime balance and rotation Goodyear only make them for Walmart. My first set of tires from Walmart.
Personally I think the duratracs do amazing in the snow. I have a ford excursion with duratracs on it and I barely needed 4x4 in the snow
Duratrac now belong to an old technology
My Nokians went hard after 2 years 50% tread and were slicker than snot. Switched to Falken A/t 3w. We will see.
I have the KO2 on a Sierra....My 2 cents. Great in snow and very quite for a all terrain. I test drove the Duratrac on another Sierra. I found them noisy. A hum on dry pavement.
I love the ko2s but in winter there is no comparison to a dedicated winter tire on ice i took handsom robs advice in the comments and picked up a set of studded Hercules avalanche extremes and will never run ats in winter again. thanks rob
I like all your recommendations. You left out one very good tire for trucks or SUV's that can be run all year long and they have a snow flake. You can actually put studs in them as well if you choose to use them as a winter tire only - the Cooper Discoverer M+S. I've had a few sets of these and they are fantastic on snow and ice and as a general all year tire and will handle a fair amount of mud too. Check them out.
My question is, what type of snow are you talking about? The baby powder which any tire can handle or for those of us who live in the North East ( Me, mh, by) what the people who live in the mountains.
Driving on grease?
Great video, I am looking for new tires, and nice to see some other brands. I live in rural Southern Alberta, the B.F. Goodrich do not last well, my wife had them on her f- 350, didn't even last a year. My daughter has the Duratrac, she loves them. I have had Falken AT3 wild peaks, they were great. Toyo have been great for me. I have never ran the Firestone or the geolanders. Anyone have experience with these 2. Thank you for your video🙂👍
@Nicolae Visan if your getting 90 000 km outta them Duratracs, I would get another set. The Falkens I only ran thru the winter months, so probably half the year, and they have a ton of tread left. So they are probably comparable. I usually stick with what has been good for me. Hope that helps. 🙂
You got comments from every tire owner here and not one bad comment about them. These are all great tires which are ch make it hard to choose.
No Falken Wildpeak A/T3W's or Toyo Open Country A/T III's..??? These two significantly blow the Firestones away, and are easily better than the Pirellis and equal OR better BFGoodrich KO2's. I get this is all your opinion, but c'mon, this really isn't a complete list without the two I mentioned.
Falken wildpeak at3w???
not a lot of dealer here where i live... so no review for now! will work on that!
@@CarQuestion thanks a lot. I have them on a GMC yukon and they are awesome. Especially for the price.
Got them on my Tacoma and they are awsome much better from the previous set Khumo a51
@@Sgtbegood best tire in the snow I've ever had
I agree just as good as BFG KO2 but 30% less money.
Firestone lost me as a customer years ago. I had 3 different sets recalled for blowout and tread separation issues.
Out of curiosity what vehicle and size were you running? The 235/75-15 are infamous for those recalls, but on fords. My old fords door sticker recommends 26psi on that size, mean while every other SUV I’ve seen running that size recommends 30-32 psi. Low pressure can cause those problems, puts too much heat into the tire, personally seen this with a set of Kumhos on and explorer. But yes, Firestone has lost me as a customer because I had a set set of Destination A/Ts, and they lasted me about 15000 miles before they were bald, so I can’t fathom spending such a premium on tires that won’t last more then a year of casual highway driving with the occasional trail and snow, even though they were great in the snow and off road, just no tread life. Same with those Yokohama’s in this video, 10,000 miles and they’re right at the snow wear bars, which is about 50% tread life, and I’m now noticing some poor wet weather traction. When they were new they were great but would not recommend the Yokohama’s either.
@@marv8481 this goes back to the 80s. Firestone 500s replaced by the 721s. Then yrs later on a 04 dodge ram 2500 with transformer
. Never again
I work for firestone I agree I buy bridgestone all terrain revos never firestone
I think Yokohamas are best in winter amongst these tyres, in ice and snow. Idk about Nokian though
I owned Nokians on my forester. Never again. Would not handle the winter. Got rid of them after only 8 months, hated to spend the money but didn’t feel safe with these at all. Maybe just on a dry road. I read how other people love how great they are in snow and ice. Guess I know otherwise
