I'd highly recommend the Firestone Destination LE3s. They're usually warrantied for 60k miles and a great middle of the road tire.
I'd say the Firestone Destination LE3s are your best bet if they make them in your tire size. They're typically warrantied for 60k miles. They're really decent tires.
Had the LE3s for 4 years on my escalade driving up and down the mountains and road tripping western US. A great tire, I took it through highway, pothole city, rain, snow, ice and even sand.
I am so glad these were worn out by the time I bought my stock used JK. The minute I put KO2s on there, my Jeep became a real vehicle.
I currently have Firestone LE3's on my 14 Explorer. They have a little over 26k miles on them. 255/50/20's for $930 mounted/balanced back in 2021. Overall pretty good tires, especially for the money. Smooth, good traction in the dry/wet and pretty good in the snow. They did seem to get louder fairly quickly, but I don't think they've really gotten any worse over the last 15k miles. Wet roads seem to exacerbate the noise. Last time I looked at them (few k miles ago), they were wearing really well. I can't say I'd buy them again yet, but if they get us another 26k miles without getting significantly louder, they (or their successor) would be on the list. In the past I had OE Hankooks (good dry/wet, excellent life, absolutely terrible in the snow) and Michelin Premier LTX (good in all conditions, short life, overpriced for what they were).
We run Falken Wilkpeak A/T3W on my wife’s Yukon and they are great. I had BF Goodrich A/T KO2s on my previous pickup and they were pretty good too. I’ve never owned Toyo tires before, so it’s a bit of a leap of faith, but the preliminary reviews I’m reading about the quality and efficiency of these EV specific all-terrains is promising. They look great!
I’m a KO2 guy though. Off-road performance is unreal. The 10-ply are nearly indestructible. They drive great and mine have always stayed quiet(I know other people haven’t had that experience).
Downside of a KO2 10 ply is they are heavy and sap fuel economy.
Have KO2s on my work truck. Never left me stuck on a job site. No issues after 3 years. Would I put them on my jeep? Probably not. It depends on use.
I have a vendetta against Firestone since they exploded on my Explorer and nearly wrecked me, only had like 10k miles.
It's wild to me that Firestone has been so invisible and irrelevant in the consumer market ever since the Ford Explorer fiasco, yet still so active in Indycar.
