We have a set of Cooper Discoverer Road+Trail AT on my wife's OB and they've been excellent. We don't do anything crazier than fire roads and trailheads but they perform admirably and are fairly quiet on road.
Best Tires for Subaru Outback
I went with Nokian outpost APTs. only had them for a few weeks and they handle just as well as the road tires I had on previously.
I have Toyo AT3s open country on my 15’ Outback. They have been great so far (10k miles). They can be a little noisy but it’s worth it.
I've had the At3s on my '24 OBW for almost 6000 and they are great. Ride just like the stock Yokohama Geolander. Gas mileage didn't suffer, and they are great off road.
I put the Crossclimate2 on our outback and love them. They’re great (and surprisingly quiet) in the dry, have great grip in the wet
Michelin CC2 is a great long lasting tire that is great in just about every condition except very deep snow. It was a big upgrade from the General RT43's we had previously had on our '13 OB. We have General 365AW on our '23 which are not quite as good in the rain, but are a lot cheaper.
I just replaced the tires on my 21 Outback with Cooper ProControl. Same tire size as you. I have young kids as well and do family duty for vacations school etc.
So far so good. I previously had the stock Yokohamas and they weren’t very good. Barely got 50k out of them.
I put a set of Michelin Crossclimate 2 on my 2016 OBL over a year and a half ago and would not switch to or recommend any other tire for all around use here in New England. Amazing traction in any kind of situation I've been in.
I have a st of Laufenns on my old beater Outback. So far, they seem to be ok for routine commuting. Are they performance tires? Heck no, but they do what I need them to do on dry roads and wet ones.
I got the Yokohama Avid GTs which are by far the worst tire they make. My Outback couldn’t turn in the snow.
