Any thoughts... The driving will be 95% pavement with a chance of serious snow from time to time... About 5000 miles/year-

Toyo OPEN COUNTRY A/T ?
Bridgestone DUELER H/L 400 ?
Something else ?

My Discovery currently has the 18" Bridgestones on it but they are shot (bald) . They came with the truck . I've only driven the 160 mile ride home the day I bought the LR.
Always had Michelins on our Expedition but they are $275 per/tire for the Discovery...

Thanks for your input !

 

with the Dueler, consider the REVO. it's a great tire on and off road with aggressive tread. about $140 per tire.

 

Thanks... checking sizes .

 

check out some of my snow driving pics,,,

all of that was done on street tires. you may not need a aggressive tread tire if you really are only looking at 5% usage from them in off road or snow/ice conditions.

i am on 18" falkens

 

The off-road is 5%.... the snow is from Oct. thru Mar. Heavy at times.
I'll read up on them... thanks.

 

if i can get the cash together by winter i might get a set of the NITTO terra grapplers to put on my 18" wheels. but even better would be a set of spare 16" wheels with off road/ snow tires

 

I have the Toyo open Country A/T on my Montero, great tire, great in the snow and rain.
I replied to your PM before I saw this thread.

 

the toyo a/t have a nice tread pattern for off roading. they have big voids for an a/t, which is great for mud and snow. a friend of mine just got some for his titan and they are really nice. he immediately went off roading and they did very well.

I want nitto m/t for mine. they look mean!!

 

Thanks folks.... heading out of town... new "meats" when I get back.
