Compared to the continentals my initial impression is that the Motivo 365 grab in the dry snow, packed snow, and slush much better. I had one intersection that was a little messy and in similar situations my Contis were quick to lose traction but the Motivos grabbed really well.
If you only occasionally go off road or encounter mud and snow, and 85% of your miles are pavement, I'd recommend one of the other two. I have run the Wranglers on my XJ, I currently have the KO2 on my WJ and my Excursion. I'd say the Wrangler handles mud slightly better than the KO2, but the KO2 handles rain, ice, and snow better on the road. Basically, the Wrangler will help you get out of a ditch a little easier, but the KO2 will help you stay out of one to begin with.
Goodyear wranglers. Good tread and not too loud or rough on the road, and they weren't too expensive when I got them 5 years ago.
Goodyear Assurance MaxLife - 225/55R19 99V Tire from Sams Club. $800 installed ($100 off). In NYS 60 miles north of NYC.
I’ve had my set for a few years and I have no complaints. I’ve had no issues getting around in snow with them.
I just got set of 4 rated for 80k miles (Goodyear) installed, balanced, with roadside assistance etc for $450 all in for cyber monday at walmart
I always ran Nitto NT555 gen 1 and gen 2 on my LS430. Pretty light stretch, especially the gen 2’s as they run wider. Been running these sizes and wheels for 12 years.
Second pair of Nitto A/Ts. Great off road, great longevity, smooth ride. Wet roads and wet boat ramps are deffinetly not their stong points. They do definnetly slip even on the slightest of wet weather so unfortunately I won't be buying another set.
My v6 Camaro currently has some tired Eagle Touring tires. These tires are super under-steer crazy.
I can say without a doubt that I will never spend money on another Goodyear tire. I've seen sidewalls bubble within minutes of installation, go flat from a pine cone, and dry rot in months.
