Tires Falken or GENERAL TIRE
I just put at4’s on my JLUS - just as quiet as the factory AT’s and feel the same on the freeway - feel grippier on dry pavement than stock, haven’t had a chance to try them in the rain yet.
I’ve been really happy the AT3’s I got year before last, they perform admirably offroad and in snow, and they are great on the highway to boot
I’ve had the falken at3’s for the last 4 years. Amazing tires that have treated me very well. Great in all conditions with good throttle control and very good wet weather grip compared to the KO2’s I had before.
Falken WinterPeak F-Snow 1. It's one of the cheapest winter tires - about $80/tire in the 195/65R15 size - but test results show it competes well with the Nokian Hakkapeliitta R5, Continental VikingContact 7, and Michelin X-Ice Snow, which are the gold standards in premium winter tires. It looks like the Falken suffers a little with dry handling, so just don't drive your Corolla like a sports car. The Falken is still competitive in the wet, snow, and ice, which is where it really matters.
I have been running 265/75/16's SL with 2 ply standard sidewall for the last 30k miles on a first gen tundra. I run them pretty hard on and off road, including airing down. I haven't had any issues and am hard pressed getting a much heavier tire since these have performed so well
Ive been running the generals for ever. Just got a set of the arctic 12s mounted for this winter. Overall design doesnt seem to have changed much since around 2012 and they have always been absolute champs in deep snow for me.
General GMAX AS-05 ultra high performance, all season tires. I'm on my 3rd set, they have a 50k mile warranty and grip like crazy in the rain. Comparable to BFG comp 2's but they look better and are less expensive. I particularly dislike the way the comp 2 sidewall looks.
I'm on my second set. I got just about 64k miles over three years before they were cracking and down to 3/32. I just don't have the same confidence in those so I went back to the A/T Trails. They definitely grip the road better and are less bouncy.
Mid range brands that are decent but relatively cheap are General and Cooper.
I might be the only one that has these that’s sliding around on snow and ice. Just don’t have confidence out on the road, which is a crappy feeling to have. Especially ice - I immediately start slipping, even if going straight.
