Before picking a set of "Hybrid" tires, be sure to listen to the full video to make sure you're picking out the right set. With different terminology and labeling, sometimes they are difficult to understand which tire type is best. If you're running a hybrid style tire, let us know which one and how it is holding up!

Choosing a tire depends on what you are going to use it for and where you live. People around me buy MTs because they look cool. It rains like twice a year.
The same as buying a truck and never hauling shit or towing shit or buying a 4x4 and just keep it parked on pavement cuz they Look Good lol I’m in cali and it rarely rains and I’m running some MTs but that’s cuz I go to big bear trails every month with the kiddos lol
I go off-road like 10 times a year. But mts are nice to have when you need them
@@PissDrunxVatoWho are you to tell people to buy what truck or car? That's just poor jealousy
@@14bqdonkhe didn’t say to not buy it, he was just calling out illogical behavior and the posers. Looks like he struck a nerve.
3:45 me on my way to buy some Hybrid Tires
I just purchased some Nitto Ridge Grappler for a Tacoma, I do 80/20 more road, and very happy with them. They are very quite and smooth not issues so far.
Thanks for the insight Jesse 😎
But they don’t last for crap 12k miles on them and they look like they have 30k+ miles…. That why they don’t have a mileage warranty…Baja boss for me.
Just got some Falken Wildpeak AT3W in a 33x12.5R15 and I'm absolutely loving them. They do great in the mud but I haven't been in any really thick slop yet. They're much quieter than my ProComp Xtreme MT2's were, and they eject mud and rocks really well without excessive wheel spin.
Compared to your pro comps, they will be horrible in the mud
Good video.
I've been a big fan of BFG KO's and KO2's for the past 20+ years on all my Jeeps but recently wanted to try something "different" and a little more aggressive. I hate and avoid mud at all costs but wanted something to grip a bit better on the rocks of not only Moab, but also Colorado and South Dakota where the rocks are more smooth and slick compared to Moab and Southern Utah. I went with the Nitto Ridge Grapplers in a 12.50x37x17 on my LS powered JKUR. I attend several Jeep rallies and gatherings yearly and realistically probably around the 80/20 of pavement vs. off-road.
I have about 28k on my 37" Ridge Grapplers now and absolutely love them. I was drawn to this video by the title but pretty much agree with your review and info on these tires. They are solid performers on the pavement with next to zero road noise and great dry or wet performance. Snow driving is also better than expected but compared to the KO2's I would have to give a slight advantage to the BFG's. On the rocks, no matter Moan or Colorado, the Ridge Grapplers perform better than the KO2's and grip very well with little tire slippage noticed.
Thanks for the video.
Mike
Thanks for sharing your experience Mike!
Mike, any more thoughts you could share about mountain highway driving during stormy condtions and possible icy condition between the two? I am in Denver and I take the family up to Breck quite often during the winter. I have been on KO2s for a long time and looking to make the switch since BFG doesn't make them in 305/70/17
@@newpsdiego Nitto RG are horrible on wet roads and snowy conditions. I can’t pull out from a red light in rain with out spinning the tires.
I’ve got 30k miles on a set of RG and I expect to get about 10k more miles before they are bald.
I know they advertise 60k miles. But I don’t see how that’s possible.
@@rl2769 Same here, when wet my super duty would spin at nothing. One time i was hauling a car and got stopped on a hill when it was raining. I had to put it in 4wd to get up the hill.
I just installed some yokohoma geolander x-at's, hopefully they will do better on and off road.
@@bones6554 I’m riding on Toyo open country AT3 now.
Way less road noise and better traction on wet roads.
Only time will tell how long they last. But they definitely get better traction than the ridge grapplers.
I was scared to buy the Kenda Klever RT tires, couldnt be happier ive been giving them hell in my discovery 2, plus no road noise going 75 at all!!! I would deff buy them again
I was nervous before buying them too. But when I couldn't find a negative review anywhere online, and for a lower cost tire at that, I had more piece of mind. Love em!
35x12.50R20 on a Tundra!
Can't find those in Quebec Canada!

DuraTracs for my FJ Cruiser have been the best tire I’ve ever owned.
Cooper Discoverer STT and ST Maxx have both been STELLAR performers for me on and off road, and are made in the USA.
I’ve only owned the stt pros got 65k on them and still kicking about
Really leaning on st maxx for my 2003 sequoia in a 255/80/17 33" mostly a highway driver but have colorado winters with slush covered highways rainy wet spring roads and dry summer dirt trails.
I ran two sets of STTs in a row on my Jeep and just ordered a set of Dick Cepek Trail Country EXPs, made by Cooper. I liked my STTs but want to try something different after two sets of STTs and hopefully these last a little longer too.
@@BigHeadBourbon My brother and I both ran The ST Maxx on our F250s on our trucks for and loved them. Only switched to the EXPs because I ended up getting an awesome deal and since they're almost the same tire as the ST Maxx I said what the hell. Had them about 2.5 years now and still like new. That's with regular rotations of course, otherwise like any aggressive tire they will tend to cup more in the front especially on a heavier vehicle like a diesel.
@@BigHeadBourbon how's the cepeks been? Looking to get some
Went from a set of Niio Terre Grappler G2S to a set of Ridge Grapplers because I wanted a little more traction off road. So far so good.
I have nitto ridge grapplers on my rebel solid hybrid tire
Agreed. Nitto's are great tires. I run Toyo's on all my trucks. But all Ive ever ran are hybrids. Love them.
@@scarstream1819 nitto has new recon grapplers out now
Nitto and Toyo is basically the same manufacturer.. Both are great tires.
I have the Mickey Thompson Baja's on my XJ and they do really well. Even on 33s I was able to conquer Barney rubble at AOAA this past Saturday.
That’s what I was looking at picking up. I have to drive 80 miles to work everyday so that 50k miles treadlife warranty has me thinking. I’m getting them in 35’s though.
@@lnaesll is that round trip ? What's your gas bill and millage add up to for the week ?
I have the falcon wild peak all-terrain‘s and a 33 inch tires. I love the tire it right when I get on road and off. I don’t do much Offroad but I do live on a dirt road/rock road here in Florida and the one Gripe I can say is I hate when I get home I am I can see several rocks have gotten stuck in a The tread of the tire but overall it’s a great tire on road and off
Gotta love these tire vids. Everyone has there brand and loves them coming off bald tires.
Wrangler Duratrac, simply the best Hybrid there is!
Clickbait titles are not a way of getting me to watch more of your videos.
🌟New Subscriber🌟 Loving this channel guys👍 I'm gearing up to live on my off grid property in the Arizona desert! I'm looking for some good A/T tires to replace my beat up tires on my Chevy Silverado 2500 HD 4x4.
Your video helps. Thanks!🔥
Damn, looks like I'm the only one still rocking BFG KO2's
I doubt that...
Rocked ko, currently ko2 looking to buy km3 this coming week
Shoot, I love my KO2s
Those KO2s are garbage, Most of the KO2s that come into our shop have half to more than half tread life left and they're all cracked between the lugs.
KO2's are Still a great tire...just not so great in mud/snow. Mainly designed for desert/dry trails...if that's your thing you're good. If you drive in wetter conditions (mud, snow) KO2's aren't so great.
I have the Kenda Klever R/Ts which are hybrid tires, I have them on my Rebel with 20k miles and they've done great on and off road. I've went to a few off road parks and was rather impressed.
Exactly.. Love my Kendas on my Power Wagon.. wayyy quieter than my Firestone 33s and my Kendas are 35s!
had these on my Montero.... they were impressive in all conditions.... considering another set for my Sequoia
Bf goodrich ko2's so far 7 inches of snow, ice, and some light mud they have been amazing. Did have to put it in 4x4 when I got in deep mud but they still were able to grab traction and get out no problem. They drive smooth on the highway and look pretty sweet. Overall it's the best set of tires I have owned.
I agree fully. Had my k02s for about 30k miles. They wear very slowly. These are 265/65/17 so I've done lots of burnouts and slides many times for years. Never a puncture. And they hook up in snow nicely even without airing down.
Other: cooper cobra radial GT. Nice, tough tire for classic cars and rides nice. Hooks up well in dry or wet weather. Had them on a 79 camaro.
I found the k02s got hard after 2 seasons and the winter performance suffered.
I got Goodyear Wrangler Duratracs and they are even better in the snow and mud then the K02S. More aggressive tread and wider deeper lugs.
@@leadnsteel1428 Both those tires are old school tech, and look like grandpas tires on the farm.. Nitto Ridge Grapps for 3/4 and 1ton trucks, or lots of towing on 1/2 tons.. Recon Grapps for daily driven 1/2 tons or baby trucks.. They at least look sweet, and they get at least 60k miles easy..
If you’re a grown man and tuck your ears into your hat you’re automatically a joke to actual adults.
Racist
If you criticize another man based on looks your automatically homosexual to actual straight men
Toyo open country at3's on my yukon for a couple months now and love em.
Where is the Cooper STMAXX at??? i have driven on Procomp A/T, and Duratracs before these in 315/75/16. The coopers might be my favorite yet.
agreed.
Totally agree these tires are awesome
Mickey T’s Baja ATZ P3 northern climate and snow work quiet well bit louder than my wife’s BFG KO2 though.
More AT’s tend to be severe snow rated than hybrids it seems.
I was going to add that point. I'd like to see some vids focusing on a conparison of a/t's and hybrids that all have the 3pms severe weather rating. In some areas like in BC where I am, they are mandatory to run if you hit any of the mountain passes Oct-March.
@@tmacbc3119 Amen, not to mention mandatory for most of our ski resorts but not always enforced 🤫
Love my Ridge Grapplers, on my 2nd set. My first set 305x65r18 F rated lasted 65k and still had some wear left but needed a newer set for winter in Wyoming, so I got the 35x12.50r18 F rated and loving them so far! They also look great on my tundra!
Love the Ridge Grapplers on my truck!
How do they perform in snow?
Love mine as well. Mine are near 50k but one tire has been trashed and now I need new one.
Love mine as well. Mine are near 50k but one tire has been trashed and now I need new one.
I’ve got Yokohama geolandar G015s on my Jeep and I feel like they’re the perfect blend of off-road and highway design without being overly aggressive looking (find it a bit cringe) but the tread is super aggressive it rips up dirt and gravel and are 80% as good as dedicated snow tires in up to 6”, great value tires if you wanna spend a little more but don’t have moneybags.
I have had hybrids since the 90's along with mud tires and all terrains. AT's are pointless unless you will never leave flat gravel. In the south they can get you stuck if you just pull over to the side of the road after a rain. "Hybrids or R/T's" are a tremendously better option. They deserve the name " All terrain". The treads can clean out and you often won't dig yourself down into an even worse situation. M/T's rule in the south. They are just better in every way today. I am liking some of the not so super aggressive options today like the Hankook MT2. I have 50,000 miles on a set right now. They are a fantastic tire on a daily driver/hunting truck. I just wish all the tires today were not heavy ass E rated tires. We don't all rock crawl. 33's today all weight beteen 50-70 pounds! They used to be 30-40# except for a few. I only know of one D option I would consider.
I have nitto ridge grapplers. Love them 60k+ miles on them. But time for new tires. 99% driving is on the road. But I drive in the snow a lot. I love the sidewalls on the grappler. Do I need to spend $530 a tire just to have the sidewall and be good in the snow?
No, there are always other options. In Wisconsin, we have run the Kenda Klever RTs and they are GREAT in snow. Pretty aggressive sidewall as well - which is also made with Kevlar. Check them out on our site!
@@TrailBuilt how they compare to the venom
Ridge Grappler 35x12.5R20 F rated run 90/10 road/off road, some camper pulling, 10K, love them!
I’m looking at this exact size for my f150. How do these hold up? Would you do this again?
I've got Falken Wildpeak AT3s and man these things really surprise me offroad. Cow pastures and dirt roads have never been a problem.
I got there MT and they are very good in clay
The thing I don't like about Falkens and Nitto's and a few others is they are extremely heavy. Like bricks. That really hits your mpg and if you're running an oversized tire it hurts it even more. The Firestone X/T is a 3 peak rated hybrid that is incredibly lightweight (like 10-12 pounds less) and performs well on all surfaces without killing your mpg. Check it out if you need a fresh set. The durability has been good so far per reviews.
@@jamesnm21 Actually tire weight has very little effect on mpg. For every 100 pounds you might get a 1% decrease in mpg if that. It only really becomes a factor if your lifting and putting massive tires on a rig.
@@saucemaster2 yes I have read that but it is not consistent with what I've seen based on real world reports. Like 3-6 mpg drops when going to heavier and bigger tires. I'm about to put a modestly heavier hybrid tire on my Cummins (6 pounds heavier) to replace some all seasons that are going on my trailer so I will see what kind of difference they make. But I have seen a lot of reports of heavy tires significantly hitting mpg. I have also seen one report of increased mpg when switching to the Firestone x/t. What has been your experience compared to other tires because I know the Falkens are absolutely one of the heaviest tires out there.
@@jamesnm21 I personally have never noticed any notable change in mpg when changing tires but I've always had trucks. I know guys in the Jeep community are all about tire weight but like we talked about earlier it just seemed because they were using oversized tires. I just bought a 2021 F-150 and I'm going to keep the stock perellis until they are worn out so I'll really take note on if the mpg changes when I replace them. My Tundra has the Falkens but it was already getting like 14 mpg so it hasn't really changed.
Mickey Thompson Baja Boss.
I'm on my second set of 35/12.50 Ridge Grapplers on my Ram 3500. I tow a 20k toy hauler and with the "F" Sidewall, I love these tires. Super quiet and great traction on every surface.
About how many miles are you seeing out of a set?
@@goldenranch5729 I’m running the Load F ridge grapplers in that same size as well and I have 50,000 on mine. I’ll get another 10-15k at least. 2500 duramax
Nice. Mine started cracking at the tread blocks after 2 yrs 25k miles. My buddy had the same issue. Maybe we got a bad batch but I won't buy them again.
The Ridge Grapps are the shit.. I used to be a KO2 or Duratrac guy for years, then I strayed to nitto for one set of performance tires for my Camaro, and started looking into Nitto for Truck tires, when I got a lift and new wheels for my truck, My first set of 35x12.5 R20 lasted 76k miles.. on an F250, Second set, of exact tires were on the truck when I sold it with 56k miles, and he asked if they were new!.. He is more brave than me, but last time we spoke there was over 90k miles on the truck, The F range tires are meant for heavy trucks and aren't the softest ride, but who cares with that kind of mileage on a set of $1800-2000 tires.. I bought a set of the newer Recon Grapps for my half ton, as they are made for 1/2 ton trucks, they look pretty much identical to the Ridge Grapps, and they now have over 60k on them.. I would say they are around 50% tread.. I love them.. If you keep up with the maintenance on your truck, ie: suspension & rotations, they will last a long ass time.. I used to be happy to get 35-40k out of K02's and Duracraps.. before they would cup and howl like crazy.. Goodbye to those old days.. I did have one set of Nitto's that I didn't like, Back in 2009 I bought some Trail Grapplers, before the hybrids came out, and they were terrible, worked great offroad, but I ate thru them quick, and there was no siping on the treads so it was slippery AF in the rain.. Nearly made me crash my 06 powerstroke a couple times.. But regardless Nitto has come a long way.. I just bought a set of NT555R2 for my Camaro again about a month ago..
BFG KO2s seem OK. Though, it's a bummer that they don't come in my fav 255/85 R16 size 🚙
Go 285/75, wider really is better
I have the falken wildpeaks atw3 on a sequoia. My wife drives it 95 miles round trip to work then on weekends we takes it offroad in.snow and sand. It has done amazing In every condition its been in.
Love the feedback! Thanks Keith!
I’ve been looking at those wheels for a while! I was waiting for someone to say something like this... thank you now I’ll definitely buy them.
What year sequoia?
02 sequoia
I'm put a set of 295/70/18s on my 2013 f-150 fx4. I love the falken wildpeaks
Had both Toyo RT and Nitto Ridge grapplers. They both amazing
I have the new nitto hybrid tires and I love them
I'm on my 2nd set of ridge grapplers and love them. Great in all Canadian conditions and 1st set last about 90,000km so cant complain
Are they OK on snow and ice? Unfortunately we deal with a lot of that in Canada!
@@exlax66 snow and ice I can't complain. I'd compare them the a BFG all terrain for ice traction.
I run BFG KO2’s on my Chevy Colorado they’re a great tire but I wanna try something different next time don’t know what I’ll get yet though, probably 80% of my driving is on road but I live 30 miles from anything and I have a mile long gravel driveway with some hills in it so I like a good tire for getting in and out when it gets muddy or snowy.
I went from KO2 to Micky Thomson Baja ATZ P3 very happy. Wanted to go with Cooper S/T Maxx, but too expensive compared to Baja ATZ P3 for same product same company just different brand. I am in South Africa so NO snow issues
I have 325/60/18 Nitto Ridge Grapplers on my 1989 K5 Blazer. I like them overall but two notable complaints is they hydroplane pretty bad and in 2WD in the snow they are almost useless. In 4 wheel drive they’re much better but pull hard into the untracked snow on the road. A lot of both complaints have to do with how wide these tires are 325/60/18 they are noticeably wider than a “12.50” that don’t measure even close to 12.5.
I also have the Falken Wildpeak AT3 on my 2500HD and are much better in 2wd in the snow and they don’t hydroplane but are narrower. I love my Ridge Grapplers but figured my opinions on hydroplaning and snow might help someone.
You might check out Dick Cepek when you need replacements. My brother had some 285's on a chevy k2500 and they did great in the snow in 2 wheel drive, and that was at 50% tread. It was a baja tire i think but all the dick cepeks have a similar tread block pattern so you probably can't go wrong. I know the cepek fun country was rated as flat out awesome in deep snow by some automotive publication testing.
Eh I have a 2wd but I’m still going with a hybrid cause it looks better😂
I've got a 2wd too. Don't know if I wanna go hybrid tires on all 4 or a dedicated mud tire on the back and highway tire in front
Nitto, has become my go to tire, and Hybrids, are the only tire I will buy from my experience.. The Ridge Grapps are the shit.. I used to be a KO2 or Duratrac guy for years, then I strayed to nitto for one set of performance tires for my Camaro, and started looking into Nitto for Truck tires, when I got a lift and new wheels for my truck, My first set of 35x13.5 R20 lasted 76k miles.. on an F250, Second set, of exact tires were on the truck when I sold it with 56k miles on that set, and guy buing it asked if they were new!..

I bought a set of the newer Recon Grapps for my half ton in 285-50 R20, as they are made for 1/2 ton trucks, they look pretty much identical to the Ridge Grapps, and they now have over 55k on the Recon Grapps... I would say they are around 50% tread by looking.. I love them.. If you keep up with the maintenance on your truck, ie: suspension & rotations, they will last a long ass time.. (UNLESS YOU DRIVE A DODGE WITH THE SHIT WOBBLY FRONT ENDS THAT DESTROY ANY AND ALL TIRES).. I used to be happy to get 35-40k out of K02's and Duracraps.. before they would cup and howl like crazy..

Over $100 cheaper per tire than Michelin and nearly as good..
I currently run KM3s on my stock Rubicon jeep wrangler. I use this wrangler for search and rescue. This means that I can travel on sharp rocks, deep snow, slush and mud. The KM3s work wonderful except that they only last 25k. I was thinking of switching to a ko3 or a wrangler duratrac RT. It would be nice to get more mileage but I really don't want to get stuck in mud. So far that has never happened. I realize that both tire brands won't fit my jeep but they should have tires to fit my jeep next year when I'll need them. Thanks
Get Maxxis Razr AT811 and all problems solved, soft ride whilst maintaining better handling, better off road than the falken at3 and quieter ride plus waaaaaay better rain/wet handling especially aquaplaning vs the falken and ko2’s (had both). Not a cheap tyre and prob won’t get 100K km’s out of them (soft rubber) but 50K-60K km’s and best ride? (On and off road the champ by mile) …just saying, handling / safety first (only contact between car and road = tyre…) rest comes second but there it still wins in almost every category except for maybe thread wear vs a cooper 100K km tyre that rides like a wooden wheel and slips everywhere in wet!!??
My friends all put toyo rts on their diesel 4x4s....they all pulled them off and sold them... the were all nearly scared to drive them even if the pavement was damp.
I get confused buy the title "do not buy hybrid tires" like they are not good!! But yes, i think hybrid tires are the best option when we live in states with 4 seasons, had 35s duratrac 3 peak rated on my H3 before, had the same 35 on my H2 as well, unfortunately they dont make them on 37s so i went with 37s delium terra rider also 3 peak rated those two are perfect for the rain and snow in chicago! Now i want to with 40s but not too many 3 peak rated out there till i found out about the patagonia XTs ! 40/13.5/17 3 peak rated of course, they are in my bucket list
As far as ice goes, a 3 peak hybrid would be ok I'd imagine? Most of my driving is pavement but desire the aggressive look but, not at sacrificing winter ability.
The %use doesnt always account well, sometimes the 5-20% use may be extreme for an AT yet necessary!!! where u r using them is a better account, then choose one that will make it easy.
For example, I off road less than 10% of time, but where I do, punctures are a real concern and places are quite remote. A hybrid proved better over time as most ATs just got ripd
I rarely ever see any 4x4's even get dirty where I live but THE LOOK is very popular. 4x4's are just too darn expensive to 'go muddin' or 'rock crawlin' Trust, they are always gingerly used off road. My brother has a Ford Raptor, he tows his motorcycles to off road locations, then returns to the city of Atlanta. But drives that darn Raptor in city traffic every day?
I need a street tire that won’t sink into my yard.......no noise. Toyo at2s were great but discontinued. At3 are too loud.
If your not going to look after your tyres, then hybrids are not for you.
By look after I mean find the correct pressure using the chalk test, rotating and balancing at 5,000 miles.
If you do above then they last well.
NEOTERRA NEOMAX RT 33x12.5R20LT-12PR
Looking good, feeling better...
A little cheaper than Toyo, but still a nice tire.
It's hard to hear but the facts are sound. In metro Detroit I won't be doing much "off roading" but I WANT the aggressive look. I would be screwing myself with those hybrids. ((But the NITTO RIDGE GRAPPLER is so SEXY!)) I'm done.
I'm rocking the Cooper discovery at xlt on my 11 silverado. Got them on last week just before we got this winter storm in the south. They are working flawlessly.
Are those the new coopers that have a different sidewall pattern on each side of side wall for you to chose?
Hi!, I’m carlos sainz from México and I have a lot of questions, I hope you can help me. I have a Toyota FJ Cruiser 2010 and I’m fixing it and getting nicer and have 20” wheels I don’t do much off road perhaps 20% and that is because I do mOuntain biking and Enduro on mi motorcycle and go with the FJ pulling either bike or bicycle and that is all, otherwise I am on Road most of the time 80% but I’m looking for tires that perform really well on what I need and already saw a 305/55/R20 on a Cooper Rugged Trek tires and they look awesome but don’t know if they are the right ones for what I need and if they perform well on road and they last or not?! I saw also a Mickey Thompson Baja ATZp3 but I have the same questions, could you help me? Or advice me on wich tire you think I would go better?
Hello! How about COOPER S/T MAXX, STT Pro?
These guys don’t usually give credit to Cooper’s Bc they’re not insta famous like shitty BFG and poser Nitto’s

Great video man! The only video I’ve seen explaining the diff between AT & hybrid. QUESTION- for desert off-roading...which Hybrid would you recommend?
Mickey thompson baja ATZ
Wanting a tough looking tire that will never see dirt-even though I am just 15 minutes from swamp and alligator heaven. Thanks for explaining what is a hybrid tire as I have been eyeballing the Wildpeak and Grappler for my soon to be lifted Mazda CX50, but wasn't sure. At worst it might just see some mud and trails around a lake - lol
The Wildpeak might be your best bet however have you taken a look at the Kleaver from Kenda?
2006 mdx. I am looking at hankook dynapro extreme. Vs fallen wildpeak at3 w. 90% road/10% off-road. Which to get? I like the hankook 70k mile but want better all round
a jack of all trades is a master of none, but oftentimes better than a master of one
I love my kenda klever rt's on my ram 1500. I'm probably 75/25 on/off road.
Are they quiet ?
@@85net as long as they wear evenly. My life and tires were installed on my truck new by the dealer and they never totaled my tires when I got oil changes. Partially my fault too for not doing it myself. Caused the fronts to cup so they are noisy now.
I don't see Toyo RT's listed here. 37 13.50 20's on a '17 Ram 2500 4x4. Half tread left when I replaced them at nearly 30k with nice, even wear across all four. Balanced well with the exception of one that had a 70 lb runout on a Road Force balancer. Toyo wouldn't honor their warranty and I was forced to purchase another tire. Thumbs down Toyo!!! That's why I replaced them with Amp MT 37 13.50 22's and I'll never look back. Anyway, the Toyos rode fairly smooth, slightly harsher than the Amp's. The RT's absolutely SUCKED in the snow. Puckered me up on more than one occasion. However, if you're putting them on a street machine that does a lot of towing/hauling, I do recommend them. Oh...and they're damned expensive to boot.

Toyo R/T is what I used, awesome tires better than the BFGs they replaced. My driving includes a lot of desert off roading. Maybe 40-45%
How do they handle sand I work on beaches and thinking about getting some toyos next currently have nitto ridge grapps and they just do ok
Mastercraft CXT. Absolutely freaking awesome on my f250 super duty diesel! I live in Michigan and these handled snow, mud, sand, and even did good on hard packed snow and ice. Mileage was decent. 48,000 miles out of the last set. Not bad for a 7800 lb truck that pulls a 18 foot enclosed trailer 5 days a week. The last set were 315/70/16. Now running a 295/70/18. Little narrower but still do great
How did they do in rain
Yea the Master Craft CXT Tires are almost Identical to the Cooper ST Max tires But the CXT tires are a little cheaper. I might buy some for my Jeep soon.
It would've been nice if you had made some recommendations, thanks a lot!!!
Running the Back Country off road H /T sold at Les Schwab. 275/65/R18
on my 2015 1500 Chevy 4x, 4 Dr cab. I just bought them last week,
I had wranglers before, the right front tire developed a bulge on the riding surface
of the tire. These new tires aren't the aggressive lugged tread, I do little to no off roading around here, although this is eastern WA, lots of rough dirt roads , You want to know, these tires unlike the wranglers I had, these tires are weak in a turn, the truck lays over way to much.
We went to the coast last week, once the highway ends, it's all county two lane back country
driving, tight turns, I discovered quickly how these new tires do not handle tight turns at general speeds at 55 to 65 on these two lane black tops. I give the tire a 5 at best based on that thus far, haven't had them long enough to know anything else. they seem to be a rugged enough tire, they sell a long line of them, heavy duty lugged tires.
I had Coopers on my 2001 4x GMC, those tires were very good, first class A 1 durability, no issues, stay hooked to the road in all conditions. it does help to note that GMC drove better than any thing I had before even this newer truck I now have....
I thought you were going to say don’t buy them but to finance them like all the kids driving new trucks.
What do you think of the Venom Power Terra Hunter XT tires?
I drive 90% on road. But still got maxxis razr mt. Reason. Main off roading is mud lol. Rather be able to get thru then have a slightly better ride.
Do you see a problem here! Your driving a 1974 Mercury Grand Marquis grandpa car 🚗
I just bought a set of finalist terreno, 372 dollars delivered to the house, I'm putting them on my 2004 grand Cherokee, cheap as hell, who knows how good they are but for the money I couldn't pass it up
Wildpeak AT3W is working for me so far as a commuter and a weekend explorer in wet and dry. I am looking for a light weight electric pump now. AT3 not so good on sand stone when not aired down with my skills at least.
Running Nitto Ridge Grappler's on Yukon XL loved them now have a set on Silverado with 33000 miles great tires. 50 50 on and off road. Great wear on tire looking at 60000 no problem.
After watching, not sure why the title doesn’t want you to buy hybrid tires…
You got me bro. Click bait. Great video 👍🏼👍🏼🤣🤣😂
Glad you enjoyed!
Looking for tires on a new truck, 23 ram Limited, probably will go with all terrain as I rarely go off Roading, just to bring the dirtbike to the trail. The truck comes with nice, 22 rims, and this is the problem I’m having, the stock tires dont look right. Debating between buying rims and tire package and going down to 20s, or leaving the 22s and getting a all-terrain tire in a 33 or 305…. I really enjoy the quiet tire though. Thoughts?
Are you looking at any brands in specific for wheels/tires? A solid wheel and tire combo would be some Methods paired with some KO2's!
In 2021 I'm hearing about "hybrid" tires all of a sudden
Great video, looking to replace my Goodyear ATA on my gen one Cayenne S... They lasted 23,000 miles which is reasonable (not rotated)
They performed great off road even in low traction conditions where low range and differential lock is needed.
Any suggestions on a replacement AT? These GY ATA's even resisted a puncture...
I have set of Venom Power Terra Hunter XTs on my '01 Suburban. I keep them rotated and not one single issue with 34k so far
Good to hear! How long ago did you get them?!
Pirelli scorpion all terrain plus on my 4runner ftw!
The best balanced tire ever! Scorpions
I’ve had 2 trucks soon to be 3 all with toyo rt I do a lot of highway driving but ive also driven on the beach with them in the rain in snow over rocky off road trails to go shooting and in the mud on job sites and I think they are the best they make a little noise but not bad like a mud tire
Thanks for informative vid. Usually just, this is what we sell to make money and therefore the best options for you... Also, glad my General Grabber's got mentioned, and for the reasons cited in vid, they're the perfect tires for moi...
I reside in Wyoming. I drive a dodge 1500. I tow a 16' steel gooseneck trailer with horses and cows within. It is not all blacktop. For me, a snow and ice capable Mt is way to much snaps the cv axels. The AT. Clog and slip in the wet areas. I have just ordered the Patagonia XT. I do 100 miles on blacktop week, and about 200 on dirt, rocks, pastures, and muddy creeks. I'm placing this in the liked. So I will come back after a good snowstorm.
BTW, I have a set of Cooper zeon ltz from 2007 that are still awesome. But bald. That should give you an idea about my milage. They are finally down to the wear bars all the way across. I do my own alignments with an angle finder and string. 0 camber. Not a lot of "road" just open range.
Toyo Open Country A/T IIIs here. Put them on my F150, and thusfar I like them. I travel a lot for work (highway miles) but a lot of the time my worksites are not near any hardball (Contract K9 team here, explosive detection). I have had good results with these tires so far, so no bad review here.
Thanks for sharing!
Mickey Thompson Baja Boss A/T... prob should have gotten the KO2's for my driving needs, but I LOVE the look they give my truck
I just started to run the Thunderer Ranger AT/R at least 80-90% of my driving is pavement. So far I really like these tire's they seem to gripe really well and are very quiet with the exception of just a very minimal amount of road hum.
How well have those been holding up?
how are they doing now?
05 dodge ram 3500 , 3rd gen Cummins. 26570r17 Kanati Trail Hogs. 4 years and just about need new shoes. Performance in the snow and mountains and back roads of North central Montana is I love the trail you. Mud performance was good on gloopy thick clay mud in the wheat fields around great falls mt. Mountain roads with with snow and ice early in the hunting season no problems. Best thing for me is they are in my budget. 4 tires and I paid $ 635 with free shipping .
I've got the Toyo Open Country AT3s, and they're the best tires I've ever had. I used to get at least 2 flats a year driving the rough roads of Detroit, and I've had these Toyos for over a year and haven't had a single problem
I have 50k on atturo trail blade xt on a 17 F350 and there's probably another 10k in them.
I rotate with every oil change and do all highway driving.
They did get pretty noisy .
Im looking at Greentrac rough master rt next.
Let us know when you are getting that new set!
I have a 2011 jeep grand Cherokee limited with the 5.7. I have never had it off road yet and currently run Goodyear wrangler tires with a thin sidewall and basically street tread because most of my driving is on road. I bought some wooded land last year and want to take it off road on my property as well as I live in the mountains of western North Carolina and have to climb old fort mountain to get to work. I'm planning on buying more aggressive tires soon before winter because I want something with more aggressive tread and thicker sidewalls to go off road as well as handle the snow in the winter
I think the hybrid tires are for me since I will be putting them through the hunting spots I go to.
Those silly oversized wheels arent meant for loadcarrying.
DD 2015 4runner with 3” lift running 255/80r17 falken wildpeak AT3W. Had nitto ridge grapplers but needed better snow traction. We do a fair amount of trail riding (weekend warrior) but nothing over class 3 trails and maybe 3+ obstacles.
The nittos didn't serve your snow needs? I'm in colorado so for one season i need good snow/slush ability but the rest of the year i need good pavement(highway) primarily and good dirt use and have been considering the nittos until I was recommended the cooper st maxx or those Falkens. 2003 sequoia currently no lift and looking at that same 255/80/17
@@kjcorder yea the nittos are not on par with the falkens or bfgko2 they’re 3 peak rated. And the nittos are not
@@zaneriggleman2250 oh! Somehow I didn't even realize. Well that cuts the nittos out unless I try the exo grapplers. But now definitely leaning cooper st maxx
you are awsome but could you please review the nokian outpost at ty
Look, all of those other tire brands everyone is mentioning suck! Toyo OC A/T III, is the way to go, (face it, most of us are going to be driving more on the road/highway than dirt) Just don't be a asphalt cowboy and buy Toyo OC M/T's and expect them to handle the road like a sports car! Toyo tires are second to NONE! Most of the young guys blow their wad on high dollar rims and speakers.... then they try to skimp (go cheap) on buying tires. THIS is why there is so much talk about this subject. YOU DON'T GO CHEAP WHEN BUYING TIRES!! Tires are THE SINGLE MOST IMPORTANT item you will buy for your vehicle. Tires are what separates you and your machine from the pavement or whatever you're riding on. Your life depends on your tire. PERIOD! There are many that found that out the hard way, as I knew a few myself, even a couple that it cost them their lives. The ignorant fools that say Toyo tires are bad or whatever negative they say about them.......... 1. Don't know shit about tires OR 2. Had some ignorant sales guy sell them some that were the wrong ones for their vehicle (e.g., wrong size or most important wrong Load rating). OR 3. They had one id those shitty lifts on their truck or a combination of 2 or more (the worst is the wrong load rating mixed with a cheap lift kit, serious recipe for disaster!) Keep this in mind, there is a good reason why Toyo tires cost so much and it isn't just because of demand! Spend at your own risk..... good luck! My suggestion, if you are even somewhat shopping with limited budget, as most of us are, go buy you some semi cheap wheels and get you some real tires!
Definitely agree that tires are extremely important, especially depending on where you live climate wise, up by us in Wisconsin with the snow we get. Good tires can make or break you!
Lol you frikin got me!
