gotta bite the bullet and buy new tires for my Xterra 4x4, use in woods / on gravel roads almost every day. looking for a tire that will get a bite in mud, last 50-60 K , handle well on the road with minimum road humm. Narrowed it down to these 4. anyone have any personal knowledge good or bad? 1. Nitto ridge grappler 2. Toyo Open countryAT ll 3. Cooper ST Maxx 4. BFG at ko ll thanks

Your not asking for much out of a tire are ya? 🤣🤣

I have the Toyo tires on my Jeep. Solid tire, just heavy compared to some others. They also have become slippery on the road after about 20k even though there is still plenty of tread.

BFG ko2 hands down.

My last set had 75k miles when I sold the truck.

They were nice and quiet up until 60k, then I let them get cupped by not rotating enough.

I have the Toyos on my tacoma, been very good so far. Had the ridge graps on my chevy and they are super loud for an AT as they are a more aggressive AT.

Look at the Falken Wildpeak AT3. I have them on my F150. Nice, smooth ride

I have the Kumho Road Venture at52’s. I’ve had them for 50k and will get at least 10k more out of them. They’re very reasonable and quiet.

I have had Michelin MTX, Yokohama Geolander and BFG KO2's on the Full Size SUVs that I have had for the past 15 years. Michelin tires road the best but lacked aggressive tread for muddy off road situations. Yokohama tires seemed to wear quickly. Have now had three sets of BFG KO2 tires and have been pleased for all around use. A little rough on my current vehicle, but low tire noise, good in muddy and on the road, and they last.

I ran the BFG KM on my dually for over 60,000 miles. They cost me almost $1800 but they outlasted two sets of any other brand.

I ran the Bridgestone Dueler A/T tires on my half ton truck and got excellent service out of them. Last set went over 60,000 miles.

Buy D or E rated tires regardless of which brand. They will last longer.

The coopers are going to give you a lot of road hum

thanks guys, just what I was looking for. was leaning toward the BFGs or Nitto

Toyo. The BFGs get slick in any type of mud. I put 55k on the last set

Ridge grapplers. I have 51k on mine and no doubt I'll get another 20k.

Falken Wild Peak AT3 is another great choice

All tires get slick in mud.
The KM2 is one of the best self cleaning mud grips I've ever seen.
I've run them on company trucks and my own trucks. They are expensive but they are worth it, if you need a good mudgrip.

There’s no comparison to price and quality of Nitto

BFG

On my 2nd set of Goodyear Wrangler Duratracs 10ply. My first set had 95k on them when I got new ones. They’ve been good to me so far.

Ask Gomer which ones he runs and then buy something else...
