Tires Goodyear or Cooper
I have been extremely impressed with the factory tires on my '20 Ram Rebel, Goodyear Duratrac. A lot of people have complained about traction on them, but idk I just think they can't drive.
I also have a set of coopers on my tj. I’ve been very impressed with them so far and love how they chew through the really deep stuff, mud or snow. Main thing is that they’re heavy which has put some wear on my steering rack and tire carrier, they can be pretty loud on the freeway with the top off but I love that.
Put them on my 22 TRD OR. Quiet, smooth ride, handle anything reasonable. As long as you’re not trying to do any massive off roading and worst terrain is going to deer camp on a rainy day they’re perfect.
Solid midrange choice.
Goodyear makes good tires which perform very competitively for the price range they are in. All season all weather lines like the Assurance WeatherReady 2, Assurance MaxLife, and Assurance ComfortDrive are top tier products with excellent performance.
Much better in all conditions than the Cooper AT3 S4s they replaced (though to be fair they were older and ready to be replaced). They ride quietly, comfortably aren’t killing my gas mileage and performed very very well in the recent snow.
On my bmw I ran the Michelin as well but was surprised when I tried the Goodyear asymmetric 4s and 5s, I felt they outperformed the Michelin and cost less.
Goodyear Assurance Maxlife are warranty at 85k miles and will last you about 43k miles down to 3/32th.
I got these when they first came out. Worst tires I ever had. They wear out super prematurely on the inside edge due to their “rounded” shape. I only got about 22,000 miles out of them, the OEM Continentals got over 50k before those, and then 40k after before I sold the car. Alignment was good the whole time. Driving style was conservative. These tires also had zero difference in range or performance. In fact I thing the handling was even worse. The road noise was only slightly quieter.
IMP GoodYear is garbage. I had problems with mine from the factory and they stopped making quality tires a long time ago.
Go Michelin - they grip way better in all conditions.
