Tires Pirelli or NITTO
Best tires I’ve ever owned. They’re expensive as shit here in New Zealand, if you can even find them, but they’re worth every penny.
Now thats out of the way, I know my truck is clean in pictures but these tires absolutely RIP in the mud/dirt/snow, no complaints off road. For a radial tire id say 10/10 off road.
The first 10-15k miles on these tires was very smooth and quiet surprisingly.
I just got the Pirelli Scorpion AS plus 3 today and from the little experience I have, I’m very happy with them. Very quiet compared to the OEM Yokohamas that came on the 18” wheels.
Another vote for the Pirelli AS Plus Scorpions. They compliment the CX9 very well. Great handling dry and wet. Good highway ride. Quiet and comfortable.
Fantastic all around tire. Quiet, handle dry and rain fantastically. Have about 15k on them with little wear.
Neogens are amazing tires in the dry and solid in the wet, but if you push them in the rain like you do when it's not you're gunna have a bad time. I will say, they are \*soft\*, its like a 200 treadwear rating, if you do a lot of highway traveling you're probably not going to get a ton of life out of them.
I run them on my fit that lives in one of the wettest areas of PNW and so far they have been great. Dry performance is phenomenal for the price point.
My Thruxton R had Diablo Rossi Corsa stock tires. The belts were showing by 3500 miles, (they are a tire designed for track use) If you’re looking for high mileage tires, the ones I feel really meet that criteria are the Michelin Road series tires. Amazing in the wet / cold and the compound is very good for upright riding for daily driving.
My Acura and GF’s Camry have Pirelli’s that we bought last year in April that are great. We bought a Highlander in November that had a set of new lauffen tires from Walmart. They have had 2 nails already. Bad luck, maybe. I’m convinced the tires are softer and more susceptible to damage.
Avoid the nitto grapplers. They’re horrible on wet pavement especially when it begins to drizzle.
