I’ll throw out Toyo Open Country 2

I have them and really like them. Have ~70k miles on them. Will need to replace before too long.

Love my falkens i have now. I have also had the grapplers and the Cooper at3s all of them were good. Good 50 to 55 thousand miles tires

Ill admit Im leaning towards tne falkens. Everyone seems to love them! I like the toyos but man they are pricey! Especially when compared to the falkens and terra grapplers. I wish i could get the g2s but they dont come in 16s. Actually Id go with the ridge grapplers if i had 17s!

Maybe someone else can comment o. Winter weather but my AT3s have been the best tire I've ever had. They are super durable. I will hit 60k miles on them fairly easily.

I really like my Cooper AT3s, but I’ve mostly used them on the highway with sporadic wet, gravel road usage.

I cant understand how you get that many miles from a set of tires.

I bought the new Pirelli Scorpion All Terrains in that same size for my Jeep, and I really like them. I had the Cooper ST maxx before and found they wore pretty quick.

Over the years on different trucks I've had:

BFG KO2
Nitto Terra Grapplers
Toyo Open Country

I'd prob rank them in that order for most miles, quietness, and ride. Don't get me wrong, current truck has the Toyo, but they are a bit noisier and stiffer on the HWY than the other 2.

I had just spent like 1700 bucks putting on the new bfgs to only sell my truck a month later. New truck came with some awful hts so I put on the Cooper at3. I must say they are way more aggressive than they look online and they were cheap as can be.

Also, they have new Cooper at3s out. Essentially that at3 tread with sidewall now.

That's the link to the at3 xlt, they also have a at3 xl. All 3 come with 60k warranty.

For everyone recommending the BFG ATs, how are they in the wet. My stock tires are getting close to needing replaced and they're starting to get sketchy in the wet now.

Saw someone complaining about wet driving with them and it has me concerned now.

Well I just found out that nitto makes the ridge grapplers in the 16s now so there is my decision! Was going with the falkens otherwise

Love my cooper at3. Did very well on some snowy trails. Have not had them on enough ice to have a good opinion but they did well on the little bit they have seen.

They also make a winter version called the atw if your winter needs are more than just occasional

Had some LT265/70R17 ST Maxx on stock FJ40 steelies. The steelies have a bit different offset than the tacoma rims, but it was a damn awesome fit. No rub.

I get an oil change and a tire rotation about every 2 months on my Tahoe. Never gotten that many miles out of tires before I started running the BFG KO2
