I like firestone firehawk indy 500. summer tire. sticky. reminds me of the old yokohama S.Drive. Plenty of grip wet or dry, and in dry it's the only one that's let me put down full power coming out of a corner without going all spastic or lighting the traction control lamp.
Another one here to recommend the Toyo at3’s. On my second set and they have held up nicely through all sorts of different terrain and conditions. They’re a strong tire with a 3ply sidewall and didn’t get any chunking after a weekend rock crawling in Sedona.
I’ve been running Toyo open country AT3 with good luck. Quiet on the pavement, indistinguishable in dry from higher end options, and really good in ice/snow.
Put Firestone Destination AT2s on mine. Great tire and good meaty look. The positive is that fuel economy only went down by 2 to 24.7 from 26.7.
I have had the Winterforce ones for a couple years now. They seem to be good tires.
I have had the Toyo's (3 sets) and the Geolanders (2 sets). Traction wise, it's a wash. Both do well in rain and ice. Off road is the same. The Toyo's lasted MUCH longer than the Geolanders.
I have Toyo Open Country AT3s now, and I'm always impressed with how quiet they are, given their aggressive tread. Had them for about 14k miles and they've performed well in mud, snow, and over rocks - but still feel good on the highway.
The Toyo open county tires from the factory are loud but I was warned about that.
those toyos are widely regarded as poor tires, they ride quiet when they're new but very shortly they get loud and the grip is pretty bad and any sort of inclement weather even just rain.
It was a terrible experience on stock suspension: extremely stiff, sluggish from standstill, and my mpg took a drastic hit. On one tank I went from averaging about 16.8 mpg to 13.5.
I ended up getting them switched out for the C load tires (255/75r17) and had a MUCH better experience. They drive nearly identical to the stock tires , mpg is back to low 16, and the ride has softened up.
