I'm about due for a new set of tires and would like to get recommendations on some fairly rugged tires. This is a daily drives so I need something that is good on and off road here in the Pacific Northwest. Also, I would like a tire that lasts.

 

I got close to 90k miles out of my last set of these... not the cheapest but 8 ply sidewall, never hydroplanes, great in snow, quiet on the freeway.

I got a set of falken wildpeaks at3 tires and i really love them. They are great on the highway, grab well, and are available on Amazon Prime

 

I'm in the PNW and have about 30K miles on a set of BFG AT. I rotate all 5 every second to third oil change and they are barely showing any wear. Been great on and off road, way up north in Canada during winter, in over 100f on summer road trips.

 

How's the highway road noise?

 

I don't notice them. I do have sound matting in the doors, but really don't notice any tire road noise. Putting a cargo box on the roof I notice.

 

I have the same tires, no road noise.

 

Nice Sean. I think Im going to look into a set for myself. Thanks for the post!

 

What size are you running those BFGs? Is your truck lifted?

 

I just got the Cooper Adventurer AT at PepBoys. Buy 3 get one free so it comes out to about $170 per tire. I have a 2" terrafirma lift kit and I bought the LT275/65/18. In retrospect I wish I had gotten the LT265/65/18 but my options were limited because of the 18 factory wheels. I drive mostly on the highway. Comfortable ride and no noticeable noise.


New tires and bumper with 2 inch lift.
