LOVE Duratracs in New England. Fantastic all around tire, but know what you're getting into. By that I mean it's an aggressive tread, so it's going to make noise and it will have increased rolling resistance compared to a highway terrain.
I have the Duratrac tires on my work trucks, which are not tacomas. They do well in the mud and snow. They get really loud on the road though, in my opinion.
I got her **\*\*Goodyear Winter Commander Studded Tires\*\***. Now I still cringe and cry and ask to get off the ride. And there are finger print marks in the dash from my death grip. But that being said, even in the crazy conditions we have had, come ice or snow or other Winnipeg Drivers, she has yet to find a situation where the tires break loose under hard breaking.
Passat Alltrack 2021, Goodyear Ultragrip Ice 2. Sweden
Got a set last summer on my Scion im 17 inch rims. When they are new they do have some noise but after 100 miles or so they quiet down. They have really good traction but they aren't performance tires. They will grip the road nicely but if pushed to far they will squeal. I will say they have a great wet road performance and actually feel like they are connected to the road. Not A/T tires but they break really well in the rain and even did really well on a loose gravel road.
I've never regretted buying the best tires I can afford. Often Michelin and Goodyear, but sometimes others too.
Michelin X-Ice if you can afford them, otherwise I swear by the Goodyear Nordics as the best affordable option and even what I prefer myself over the X-Ice.
I'm running them too (for about 2k miles so far) in a 255/50R20 and I like them. They feel very surefooted in the big rainstorms we get down here in Florida.
the reviews on the Falken's are pretty good, so I am just leaving them on the 2018 Alltrack I bought. They aren't the greatest when you push them in the twisties, but they handle rain and snow pretty well.
Goodyear.
