Tires Cooper or Barum
Cooper Discoverer AT3. The XLT model adds more sidewall beef.
Ran Discoverer AT3s on my 4Runner and they were amazing, very comfortable/quiet and didn't mess with my gas mileage like some of the chunkier all-terrains tend to.
I’m a fan of the cooper atts I put on my awd outlander have a decent warranty as well.
I've always used Cooper Tires on all my 4*4 and AWD vehicles. Quite pricey but outstanding mileage and grip - the grip goes from great to phenomenal depending on the tire you choose
Both my Corolla and gf's CRV sport Cooper CS5 Ultras now. Definitely better than what was on them before. Very noticeable on the winding mountain roads, combined about 80 miles per day.
Cooper AT3's, 215/70-16 to fit an 04 FXT. Fantastic tires, even does great in the snow down to about 20F (or did when new, they're 50-60% worn now and pretty scary on ice, as are all AT tires).
I've got STT Pros on my 2500hd and KO2s on my TJ both of which were a daily driver for extended periods of time. The Cooper's are definitely louder, but the entire truck is loud, so it doesn't really bother me. The comments here ring pretty true, and I'll take my Jeep in the snow rather than the truck. Honestly, just do what makes you happy. The trade-offs are miniscule if you know your limitations and drive appropriately.
I had cooper evo tours on my E90 bmw, they were good tires, a little on the noisy side but otherwise fine, especially for the price I paid.
Get any reputable tire: Falken Sincera, Continental Control Contact, Yokohama AVID, Hankook Kinergy, Cooper Evolution, etc. Spend a total of $50 more, and your tires will run much safer, and for even longer.
My experience with the Cooper AT3:
2011 Land Rover LR4. I Put about 50k miles on the set in 2 years. No punctures.
* Excellent on road manners
* Quiet, smooth.
* Even tread ware
* AWFUL (I.E. not safe) Snow and ice performance
* Poor mud traction, poor gravel traction, mehh wet traction.
