The great white north here. Excellent traction in snow, and pretty good on ice. The benefits in wet and dry traction over normal winters for the times when it's not extreme conditions outweighs having dedicated winter tires. At least where I'm at.
Also there are better summer tires out there, I recommend the Michelin pilot sport 4s or the new Continental that recently came out, they have amazing performance and last a long time.
I’m running 265/70/17 (123 load) K03 on my 4Runner and I’ve been pleased with washboard performance (2mi of sort on my commute). They do like to chuck rocks more than the AT3W (not sure how the AT4W is). Rain performance has been great here in Maine. Haven’t had enough snow yet
I never had a puncture on multiple sets of KO2's.
I switched the Kumho Crugens that came with my 2022 Santa Cruz SEL nonturbo with activity to BF Goodrich Trail Terrain, still at 245/60r18 about 2 weeks ago. The Trail Terrain is a lot more quiet, in fact, I can hear the hum of the engine much clearer now. Great in mild snow and ice, never slipped. It also performed very well in the rain and a little puddle, no hydroplaning so far. Cornering is not at good as the Crugen and needed a bit of correction. The ride is almost as comfy as the Crugen, but I can feel the little road imperfections subtly. I averaged 26.8 mpg on the Crugen, the Trail Terrain set me back a dismal 23.9 mpg.
I would also recommend looking at the Nokian one and Michelin defender2.
The michelin defender 2 is rated for 70 or 80k miles, and is generally very quiet.
Upgrade them to michellin pilot sports all season worth every penny. More grip for that torque!
Weather peaks have garbage treadlife. CC2 is obviously a top contender. I would go CC2 for true all weather or WRG5s for better winter performance and slightly worse summer performance
They were not yet worn, but they got so noisy after 15k, it drove me crazy.
