Tires Falken or BFGoodrich
I’ve had both on a DD, however I never drove my duratracs in snow so I can’t speak to that.
I’d go AT3W, they performed great on dry/wet pavement, snow, dirt, mud, etc and were notedly quieter than duratracs.
I've had both tires in E-rated 285/75-16 flavor on my 100-series Land Cruiser. Got the Wildpeaks back in 2016 a few months after they first came out; still have those tires currently with about 60k on them and they only look half worn, no cupping, between 5-8k mile tire rotations (5-tire).
I changed from Duratracs to Wildpeaks on my Colorado Bison, and really like the quiet and snow performance over the worn Duratracs.
I’m really happy with my Wildpeaks. I had them on my 3rd gen, and now I have them on my 5th gen. I dailyed both of them, live in NH and they were great in the snow.
Falken at3 on my runner. Gas mileage is about the same. The are quiet do great on the snow and off road as well as on road
Wild peak at3w on the ranger and I love em. They keep decent traction in our current ice storm and great in all other conditions.
As someone who installs these and many other tires, the wildpeaks. They wear better, last longer and make less noise.
Got some back in August to replace my dying General grabbers, and have been incredibly happy with them. Most of my driving is on road, but the few times I’ve been able to get out on dirt they have seemed to perform very well. As far as road driving the handle great, and aren’t very noisy.
running KO2s on my FJ but like others are saying theyre not good when it rains. tried toyo at3 on my gx and i think theyre better on-road but they only lasted me couple years. i dont know.. i switched to hankoook dynapro extreme. i find the hankook more quiet than the toyos. very good onroad manners and wet traction
I worked in tire shops for many years and installed many sets of BFG all terrain K02. I used to cringe when I saw these tires on the work order. They are very heavy tires to handle and that weight doesn't help with mounting and balancing. Every time I installed a set of these, there would always be 1 or 2 tires that would ask for an obscene amount of weight when trying to balance. Sometimes as much as 10 ounces on a perfect rim. We would try to promatch them but sometimes they would still want 5-6 ounces. Sometimes we would peel the tire off and try another one from stock if we had more. If we had no other stock, we would slap the weight to it and hope the customer didn't come back with a vibration. Also, everyone I've ever talked to who had these said they turn hard as a rock when they are cold and are terrible on ice.
