Tires DEXTER or ADVAN
La driver here. I run advan v601s year around. Great performance even in the few days it rains.
Pros: great performance
Vehicle:
Subaru
I always get the budget "Dextero" brand from WalMart, and I've been happy with them.
Pros: Happy with performance, good value
Vehicle:
Jeep Grand Cherokee
I would have chosen/ordered these ATX from WM to replace my Falkens, but a tree branch punctured my tires and I was forced to buy *in stock* Dextero DAT1 AT Tires. NOT 3PMS, but look VERY similar the my Wildpeak AT Trails! I got the rear set replaced, will replace the fronts soon. Happy with my purchase.
Pros: happy with purchase
Vehicle:
Honda Ridgeline
I have had 2 sets of them in 5 years on an 05 tahoe. First set has lasted me roughly 48k and the most recent pair are still on the tahoe with abiut 20k on them (Tahoe is sitting, I now drive a 2016 Colorado) The tires are made local to me in South Carolina. For the price I cant beat it. I have nothing but good experience with the Dextero AT
Pros: good experience, good price
Vehicle:
Chevrolet Tahoe
Mileage: 48000 km
I have used the DAT1’s on two vehicles and the grip was phenomenal. The DAT1’s made that a joke.
Pros: phenomenal grip
Mileage: 32187 km
Very late to the party here. I just put some Dextero All Terrain’s on a 25 year old Chevy S10 that previously belonged to my now 95 year old grandfather. Maybe this isn’t saying much for an older truck that previously had tires that were god knows how old. But I have a much smoother ride now with possibly a little more road noise, but the noise isn’t anything overbearing and is only slightly louder.
Pros: much smoother ride
Cons: little more road noise
Vehicle:
Chevrolet
I always get the budget "Dextero" brand from WalMart for my personal vehicles, and they seem to last just fine. Sometimes I have to take them to a real tire shop for re-balance, but most of the time it's fine from the WalMart TLE.
Pros: good longevity
Cons: needs re-balancing
I can say their cheap "Dextero" tires are a reasonably solid chineseum tire. I think they're badged as 40-45k tires but really they're usually closer to 25-30k.
Pros: reasonably solid
Cons: wear out faster than advertised
I went from Falken Wildpeak AT Trail to these DAT 1’s. Look very similar. My rears were $91. My fronts not on sale will be $102. The Wildpeaks in 2020 were $126, now $215. So cheap shit for me it is! But they look good and get me to work.
Pros: look good
Cons: cheap
I’ve used Dextero. They cracked and wore down in less than 20k miles.
Cons: cracked, wore down
Mileage: 32187 km
