Dude, I have had these on my 2019 4Runner and put about 40k miles on them. Drove all over and in all conditions. I drove in the snow storm that kicked Indianapolis into -17 degree weather last January and put like 6” of snow in Northern Alabama. When I was driving south on I65 just entering the north side of Bowling Green, the snow was coming down the size of golf balls. I never even put the 4Runner in 4wd, keep it in normal drive, had about 4” of snow on the highway all the way to exit 1 outside of Nashville to get in Alabama and the roads were NOT plowed, the speedometer never went below 65-70 the whole way. I NEVER lost traction with my 285/70r17 Ridge Grapplers. Never slipped, slid, nothing.
These are quieter on the road, but that could be the more luxury cab interior. I don't feel or hear vibrations like I always did in my brother's 4x4s back in the day. They seem like a decent overall tire. They handled mud okay, and don't track up the grass on my properties, and did okay on some snow and ice recently.
I have Nitto Nomad Grapplers (similar to Falken Wildpeak) on my 2017 FXT Touring, and have Michelin CC on my wife’s Lexus RX, and given your situation I’d say the Michelin CC would do the trick and be a more comfortable drive with better MPG.
Nitto Terra Grapplers. Horrible in the rain is an understatement. They wore pretty fast as well.
I'm running Wildpeak AT4Ws now and they've great so far. Haven't had any problems on wet roads, handled the foot of snow and ice my area got recently just fine. Pretty decent off road as well.
Have had them for more than a year now on a Ford Fusion. They are a nice aggressive tire, lots of bite. They have a whole lot of tread. I haven't had the chance to really put them to the test in snow conditions but the little bit of snow I did get to try them in, they performed well. As far as an all season tire they are top notch for someone living in New England's unpredictable weather. They aren't going to compare to a snow tire in the snow but definitely outperform all the other all season tires I've had. I will definitely buy them again.
I’ve ran the Hankook Ventura V12 Evo2 on previous cars and felt they were perfectly serviceable.
I ran these tires for years in my first gen, Florida heat and rain. They were my go to for daily driving. No idea what everyone has against these tires, they never gave me an issue. Gripped or slipped when i wanted them to.
Must be a new hankook style. But based on the mileage warranty at 50k that’s pretty solid. Especially for a low profile tire. I would see more reviews based on the performance of the tire. How’s the noise when driving. Any vibration or anything like that.
Experiencing the same issue with my Terra Grappler G2. I wasn’t sure if it was just mine since we live in Florida. However, it doesn’t look like it’s an isolated issue that only applies to southern regions. Mine are only 2.5 years old with around 18K miles on them.
This is unfortunately common in my experience with Nitto. I ran Trail Grapplers that were cracked like that with still probably 2/3 tread left. Next set were Ridge Grapplers, they did the same at about 1/2 tread.
