Tires Falken or Goodyear
I put Goodyear Exhilarates on my 6 and they were awesome. Extremely good traction in the rain. Never really used them in winter weather, but they were phenomenal wet or dry.
You can't beat Bilsteins, if that's the problem. In my experience tires make a difference. Falken Sincera A/S250 is an exceptional tire.
Update.... I got the Goodyear Assurance ComfortDrives for the van after some research and discussion with Tire Rack. They have pretty much eliminated tire noise and sharp impacts, which is great.
Put some Wildpeak AT3s on my ‘03 4Runner last Spring, putting them to the test this Winter in Michigan, and I absolutely love them.
Have had the Wildpeaks now for a full year. They are really great in snow and rough weather conditions. That said, my truck did drop over 3mpg after the switch from the stock Kevlar Goodyears.
I barely have to put my truck into 4wheel in snow now that I switched to Wildpeaks. The amount of grip compared to the stock tires is insane. Also pretty quiet and my mpg’s only dropped for city driving, same mpg’s for highway.
I love the Wildpeaks but mine have started to spin a bit from a stop after about 20k. Looks like I'll get 50-60k out of them though.
Mine runs Falken Wildpeak all year. Kills is in all weather.
Been running these on my JKU for three years now. They tend to get much louder as they age. They're great in snow, but not very good on ice or even wet roads.
Had the Falkens on my 2017 GSWAT and at 22000 miles they are toast.
