Weather ready 2 from Goodyear is a better dry weather tire and a better wet weather tire imo. Also rides better.
Agree on the Goodyears. I have them on my Subaru Legacy, really improved the handling. Quicker turn in, quiet and smooth.
I wouldn\u2019t hesitate to buy the Goodyear MaxLife 2. I\u2019ve had great luck with the top of the line Goodyear tires
Bought mine this summer, they are AMAZING! Just yesterday I was driving in snowfall when the roads weren't great, I've had almost zero issues with them.
Switched out my old Michelin sport tires with these Goodyear, EV tires and my car cabin noise has reduced by 90% of believe it or not. Feels like a new car.
Duratracs on my excursion always because I traveled a lot in the snow and ice in Wyoming, beat anything else I tried, until it got muddy or rainy. They wouldn't clean out for shit, didn't seem like enough swiping but that was the older version of them. All my ranch vehicles ran them and I had zero issue, snow, sand, rocks just sucked in mud or rainy asphalt.
I actually didn't hate them on jeeps I've had in the past. Both my tj and xj had them. Iirc they were a 45k tire. Did ok in the ice and snow, but not excellent. Honestly they were pretty ok tires. With reasonable care, they Delt with slush and light snow pretty well when above the bottom 1/3 of the Tread. Ice was so-so, Reasonable enough to stop my xj without abs. They did pretty good off road, good enough to keep up with a stock or lightly modded jeep, and would probably tackle trails fine with careful lines and good technique. They fell flat in the wet. They were a little bit slick in the rain on pavement, and would turn into a grease ball in the mud.... But they weren't a mud tire. I bet they would be A perfectly reasonable choice for anybody living south of Iowa, or out west. Within reason they were just fine in Minnesota as well.
Every Goodyear tire I have owned was pure shit. A set of Ling Longs would have been better. So premium price, not premium tire?
i've run efficientgrip cargo on the front of a small isuzu lorry (think half ton pickup-sized in yank equivalents) and they were also chipped to hell. 100% urban/highway use. they just do that.
I've had nothing but trouble out of Goodyear since the 90s. Granted, I've only been foolish enough to buy 2 sets since then. Gravel can exacerbate their poor rubber trouble too.
