Tires Hankook or BFGoodrich
Hankook dyanapro AT2. I put them shits on all my 4wd's and I've never thought they were too expensive
I switched from BFG KO2s to these and I'll never go back. Very quiet at highway speeds, smooth, and great in the snow. 85k KMs on them and still like new
BF Goodrich, Michelin tires three years after and at third of the price.
My recommendation is the "other" OEM tire, Hankook's Kinergy series. On my RWD 22, they've lasted 35k miles so far and are still not near replacement. Unlike the Bridgestone's they are solid and you almost never hear a bad word from those that lucked out and got them.
have the same setup on my Tahoe, except my rims are 22x9.5. Not bad honestly, really no complaints. The mpg is terrible. I always think I'm speeding but I'm just not, kind of a slow ride, but I enjoy driving and listening to music. It still had get-up at high rpms. I got the v8 tho so might make a difference. Hope this helps
You will gain a few percent and the handling is similar or perhaps slightly better.
Efficiency is as good, if not slightly better than the procontacts and much quieter. Not sure about wet traction as it hasn’t rained since I put them on but folks say the rain grip is good, better than the procontacts.
I’m just about to replace my KO2 265/70r17s. I put them on in 2018 and have 62,000 miles on them. They have been great - just avoid mud but that goes for all AT tires. Over the last year they got louder on highway and wet traction sucks right now due to wear.
Hankook iPikes. Bought used missing only 1/32 tread from factory new. $150 for the set from someone that sold the Hyundai they were on to get a Toyota SUV (don’t recall which one). I don’t care for them, being used to a higher tier of winter tire. They slip more on ice and snow grip is decent but I’ve had better in Blizzaks, or the best in Hakkapelitas.
Only experience with OE Hancocks was on a VW Passat. Took delivery on new car and drove home from the dealer in a snow storm and it was the most severe case of white knuckle syndrome ever. The car was absolutely dangerous and scary.
