Tires Falken or Kumho
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.
I just switched to wildpeaks too and they are great in the snow and rain so far. The stock tires on the SR5 were a liability and would always slip whenever the weather took a turn.
Falken Wildpeak AT3W. Live in the Seattle area and they’re great in the rain, but I spend a lot of the winter at a second home in the North Cascades and they are killer for the ice and snow. Incredibly quiet, too!
I had so much fun playing in the snow with the Falken Wildpeaks. It was like I couldn't get stuck.
Kuhmo XS will outperform the Hankook V12 but won't be as good as the aforementioned Star Spec or RS3 or RE11. XS is very sensitive to temperature and rain as it needs to have heat in it for it to work well.
I hated the falkens I had on my GLI when I sold it, they did everything in a mediocre fashion but cost considerably less than the Goodyear f1 gsd3's and BFG KDW2's I had prior.
