Ever wonder if the set of tires that you have is best for your vehicle or lifestyle? Today, Josh goes over exactly what to look for in your next set of tires and breaks down the differences between all-terrains, rugged-terrains (or hybrids), and mud-terrain tires. Let us know what type of tires you have and if you wish you would have gotten a different type.

The best all around tire I have ever run is the Kelly TSR. It is one of the original hybrids that came out around the time of Goodyear Duratrac's. They are by far the longest wearing tire I have ever used. I had two sets in a row on my personal truck (Ram 1500) and they went 65,000 and 55,000 respectively. The last set still had a few k miles left when I sold the truck. It looks like they renamed the Kelly TSR to "Edge MT". Wanting a change after several years of the same tire, I went with the Hankook Dynapro MT2 this go round on my personal vehicle. I liked the looks, tighter than normal for a MT tread spacing, and generous siping for a MT. So far I am extremely pleased. They clean out easier and seem to have a little more grip offroad than the Kelly's. The performed just as well as the Kelly's on the highway, rain, and snow. I have run some of the other aggressive all-terrains on work vehicles and seem them in action on friends trucks and was not impressed.
Great video, just what I was looking for.
Glad you liked it!
When I lived in the States, I ran Nitto Terra Grapplers on my FJ60 and my FJ Cruiser. Unfortunately, they are not available here in the Middle East. I am extremely disappointed with the BFG K02's. I am looking for either Milestar Patagonia's or Cooper AT3 for my 76 Series Landcrusier here. Here it is mostly hard desert terrain or sand.
Man this was great, now I know how to shop for needs
Great video thank you 😊. Just got a gladiator jtrd and trying to decide between 35 MTs and 37inch load C KO2s.
I really like the Hankook Dynapro MT2's on my Jeep Wrangler, in Montana they do great.
I was happy to see Kenda in two of the three categories, the off-road cool guys in my area all use Toyo, and kenda was the cheapest for me to purchase but I’ve seen kenda being used in multiple videos now and really being out to the test, I wanted a tire that looks good but will give my 2wd sole traction on small off-roading trails rated for 2wd, and affordable, looks like I’ll be keeping them as my choice
I current run 33" toyo A/T's on my 4wd and they have been a great tyre but im going to put on the toyo R/T's for my next set. So far i have done about 60,000kms with the toyo A/T's and they still have about 30-40% tred left. Dont hear them onroad either. Highly recommend this tyre
35x12.5x15 Cooper STT Pro. Found very good reviews, none bad.
I love the STT Maxx, definitely debating tho about trying the Ridge Grapplers
92 dodge dakota 318 magnum. Maxxis Buckshot MTs on it have saved me during a freeze over back in 2015. Road iced over before i got off work and every 5miles there was a pile up. My and the little dodge said we're going home locked in 4H and just cruzed down the side of the road all the way home
trail built has the best customer support. I love em
Happy to hear! We appreciate the support!
Thanks for the simple explanation.
Glad it was helpful!
I run the Pro comp xtreme mt2 tries and pro comp wheels and love them. My dad got them for me for my birthday years back. Would love to see what yall think about the pro comp xtreme mt2 tries and pro comp steel wheels too. But I think when I get my jeep Gladiator I'll get the Mickey Thompson Baja boss A/T. 😁👍
Great Alaska footage
I need RTs or MTs for my shopping centre car park.
Damn right. Don’t forget to air down. I’m glad I upgraded my lift cause the flex those speed bumps require is insane.
@@TeethOfDead There are more pot holes in our car park than that on an Artillery range.
Goodyear Duratracks in my Tacoma 4x4 & BFG KO2 AT in my Suzuki Jimny 4x4. When they wear out I might look at the Nitto Grapplers, they look cool & pretty good reviews about them.
Stick to your Dura Tracs you won't regret it bruh
Driving my 2016 F250 XLT 4x4 CrewCab this Winter 2021 on I-70 Colorado Rockies Calif to Colosprg and Im looking to buy a Rugged Terrain Tire 295/70R18 on Stock Rims that has the best Sips for Wet & Ice Roads conditions 😀👍
Bring back the Parnelli Jones Dirt Grip!
The Trxus MT has been around a long time too. 'One of the first "hybrid" tires, with a lot of siping and tight center blocks.
Thoughts on the Maxxis Razor MT? Ran through plenty of snow and ice on and off road just fine. Not the greatest in heavy rain in my experience. Look damn good though. 😂
So far one of my favorite tires to run on any vehicle barring diesels cause they chew up soft compound tires easy. Are Hercules trail digger mt. Good cheap tire that truly felt like a point and go tire. I will have to say though that I would probably spend the coin on a diesel to cooper stt max tires.
Nitto Trail Grappler 37/12.5/17’s on my ‘14 Wrangler JKU. Tires work great on road and off. Icy conditions are no issue for me as I live in Alabama. Mud, on the other hand, can be found anywhere. Lol!
Good stuff! Thanks for the feedback Scott!
Will stick with my BFG muds.
Ran them for 22+ years.
Outstanding!
Happy to hear! Love hearing from people who are actually running the setups we post about.
Good video. That's all I can say.
I’ve only used Generals Grabbers and KO2’s. I live in Canada and I found the KO2’s were great with all the different terrain and weather
@Cuddly Cat what the fuck question is that? 😂
Toyo just came out with a Toyo open country R/T trail. And I have them on my 3500 diesel truck and I love them. In my opinion, there the best of both a A/T and a M/T. And I don’t like a lot of sighting in my tires. Yes they are great for ice driving but I have noticed with a tire that has a lot of swiping in the tread. You get a lot of chipping and gouging out of the tread. So I do not like a tire that has a lot of siding. But the Toyo open country R/T trails. They are really good and rain snow and ice. If you have a diesel truck and you’re driving in rain or snow, ice, mud, etc. drop your air pressure from 80 psi to 40 to 60 psi. And it will give you better traction then you’ll get in a A/T tire. When I am on dirt roads in rough terrain for Extended. Time in my diesel truck I will drop my air pressure down to even 20 to 25 psi. It has given me even more traction. And the Toyo open country R/T trails. Have the benefit of being a lightweight tire gives you the right comfort of a highway 10 ply tire, but has the durability and toughness as a mud tire. And this is done by, the construction of the tire and it’s designed. If you look at the specs of the tire, it has a two play sidewall, but the side walls are extra thick. And instead of having one Kevlar band, it has two Kevlar bands in the sidewall. That way when you’re driving to work or family commutes in your truck, you have the comfort of a two ply sidewall and like I said, the durability and strength of a three ply sidewall. Because if you look at a mud, terrain tire or a lot of the rugged, terrain tires, they have a three ply sidewall. And I don’t know about you guys but a three ply sidewall makes your ride even stiffer, especially when you’re in a diesel HD truck. But if you love to go off-road on some serious gnarly trails, then I would suggest going with a Toyo open country, RT or a mud terrain tire. Basically a tire that has a true three ply sidewall. And I would like to add to this that the Toyo open country, R/T trails. Give you a better ride and comfort then other all-terrain tires. I had a set of Les Schwab open range A/T LT-10 ply tires on my truck before the Toyo R/T trails and I absolutely did not like them at all, and I would never recommend anyone to get them. I constantly had balancing issues and I don’t even go off road in bad places. Basically I drive on dirt Rocky trails and dirt roads like logging roads. In the tires sucked in my opinion, especially in snow and ice and in mud. And they didn’t really even do that. Great and send. When I went driving on the beach even with my tire pressures at 45 psi I still had some problems. And not to mention those tires had a 65,000 mile warranty and they only lasted me 41,000 miles before I had a tire catastrophically fail due to a manufacture defect.
I'm running kms *jk rubicon take offs* on my gladiator. I can't wait to wear them out. I am really leaning toward wildpeak at3s for the next set!
Need more people so spread this video more
I have the tendency to pick tires for my worst case scenario. I need what I need when I need it. I know my daily driving will suffer but I get into situations where a superior mt is the only thing that works without getting help from someone else and to me that’s not an option.
how could I find out the brand of the silver wheels shown on the the RT tires?
Try to do test all the types off tyres and show us and tell us the mud tire doesn't effect in snow and ice
Looking for the best tire for sharp rocky desert roads. I live about 4 miles down a dirt road and many of the towns near me are best to get to on graded dirt roads. I drive a 2000 expedition lt265/70/17. When it rains we have very sticky clay mud and the roads can get pretty slick. Looking for something for moderate off road use and very anti puncture. What would be your pick?
👍 What about maxxis razr at and mt?
Some people cringe when they see the BFG K02s depicted as an A/T. But, that is what it is. It is not an R/T.
Good day. Thank you for the video. Please tell me what kind of rubber you use during snow and frost from -20 to -40
What can you advise. We have Goodrich and Mickey Thomson, which would be better for such an environment?
GOODYEAR Dura Tracs will work great
GX FTW!!!!
But what not mention nitto trail grappler in the line up? They are definitely better than the BFG.
So, you either don't like or don't sell Goodyear? Duratrac > KO2's imho. Have owned both and on my second set of DT's
Running Good year Duratracks !
RBP rugged Terrain for me are good tires
what about Goodyear Wrangler Duratrec?
Another great mud tire. Falken MT. I like it over toyo MT.
Wow, no love for Duratracs?
no repping Maxxis of any type?
ngl my 13 year old highway 31 inch Michelin radial tires perform just as well as any mud terrain or all terrain in the rocks at 8-10 PSI with the added benefit of generally lighter with better mpg and noise levels. The only part where It gets sketchy is on rainy days where it starts to get muddy. Don't believe that you need fancy latest technology to wheel with the boys. Ive taken these to multiple offroad parks (hidden falls, wolf caves in TX, Moab, Rubicon ect) so i've had my fair share of experiences.
Which AT do you recommend when pulling a camper (travel trailer, 8788 lbs dry) using an f150. Looking for a stiffer sidewall
I recommend an F250
I would go with GOODYEAR Dura Trac tires
I live in Northern Canada. I want MT but cant use them. So, the Ridge Grapplers, but they too do not work well for the winter conditions or spring/fall. Seems like AT are what’s needed and while they are new, the Mickey Thompson BAJA Boss do seem promising. I think they will be my purchase.
Buy yourself a set of GOODYEAR Dura Trac you won't regret it
Why can't you use Mt s??
@@MrBULLRIDER13 “Can’t use” may have been incorrectly worded. It is based solely on weather conditions - mud terrains would be useful for only about three months, as most of the time the terrain where I live is under winter conditions or conditions not conducive to MT tires. Also, shipping of non stock tires makes for one heck of a price increase.
@@dave1534 interesting enough Mt doesn't actually stand for mud terrain really it actually stands for maximum traction.
Thanks Josh! Can you do one of these for us duallys?
PS- South Florida on the way to Costa Rica, so no snow but lots of rain, sand, and mud! Stock 235/80R17's on the '06 Ram 3500 5.9l DRW quad-cab 4x4, considering moving up or even super single conversions? Thanks again y'all, great job on the videos!
Fuel 20x10s w/ Toyo RTs. I ride on the street most and occasionally tread off the beaten path. Considering an aggressive AT but going to a smaller wheel like an 18x9. (Cant do 17s because of 6” lift kit)
I'm looking into getting the Toyo RTs and I too do mostly street diving but occasionally like to hit the sandy dunes. I do drive in snow about twice a year and in rain a couple of months throughout the year, if that (I live in Southern California - so mainly sun all year round). If not the RTs, what other hybrid tire have you ran/recommend?
@@Daniel-pc1er i live in Southern California as well and these tires are not good in the rain. Ive never done the dunes so not sure about sand. I might try the Mickey Thompson Baja Boss A/Ts next. Since most of my driving is On-Road im going to see how an A/T compares to an R/T in my specific area (san diego) Theres no one perfect tire but im thinking i might get more with an all terrain tire.
@@A619D yeah, currently I'm running the Hercules Terra Trac AT2 and it's done great for me but I want something a bit more aggressive. Another tire that I'm considering is the new Cooper Rugged Trek, looks awesome and aggressive
@@Daniel-pc1er just looked up the coopers. They look pretty good. What size rim and tire are you going to run?
@@A619D I have a 17x8.5 methods and looking to run a 295/70r17.. I have a '13 Ford F150 FX4 with the Bilstien 5100s maxed out in the front so sitting leveled. Would like to run a larger tire size but that'd require me getting a full lift kit and don't have the need for it.
So does nobody consider the nitto trail grapplers?
Need help deciding between the Toyo Open Country AT3 and the Mickey Thompson Baja Boss AT. Which one would come out better?
Baja Boss's are great! Couple of guys at the shop run them and enjoy their setup.
Awesome, thanks! 👍
Nice vid. Any thoughts on the Yokohama Geolandar X-AT?
Great Tire! Good siping. Sidewall design is interesting, yet effective. Tread pattern allows for some good evacuation while still having good road manners.
@@TrailBuilt thanks! It’s at the top of my list.
@@chrisridebike8 also has a 3ply sidewall! Strong tires!
@@jkroemer2685 yeah, that was one thing I liked about them. The truck is my wife’s daily that we off road on the weekends so i decided on the Falken Wildpeak AT3Ws (C load). Great tires on road and off road so far.
@@chrisridebike8 nice I had wildpeaks originally on my Tacoma, than switched to Dick Cepek trail country's (hybrid/rt) tire. Might go back to regular AT though
I need a good AT that stops in the wet on road most are terrible
Continental terrain contact a/t
What about the Wrangler Duratrac in the RT category?
Tough to say! Great tire just a deep list with great options! I wouldn't count out the Duratrac's at all.
So I am a Mobile Rig Welder and I drive a Ford f350 with a welding bed, welder, and tools. The truck weighs close to 11k lbs I also pull a 5th wheel camper that weighs close to 14k lbs. I’m trying to find a tire that is capable of towing the heavy weight load as well as be able to drive through thick mud to get to the job! I would prefer the tires to look a little more aggressive. Please help?!
BFG HD-KT t/a’s. They’re new and not only look great, but we’re designed for 3/4t-1t trucks carrying a lot of weight and also with the high torque of diesel trucks. Check them out.
Muds are softer just lke witer tires so i thought they would grip well in snow ?
Winter tires are specially designed to excel in cold temperatures and on roads covered with snow. They use a distinct rubber compound that stays flexible even in freezing weather. Mud tires usually sport robust, aggressive tread patterns with wide spaces between the blocks of treads. These designs are specifically crafted to dig into and grab hold of soft, loose, and warm terrains such as mud. Mud tires just aren't designed to handle the cold like winter tires can.
I was wondering why goodyear didn't get a review 😕 I just put the new goodyear authority AT on my tacoma . But they are new and I will end up doing a review after 6 months
No real reason in particular! If we ever make a part 2 or another video similar to this I will throw Goodyear in the list for a suggestion!
These tires are not good and snow
How do the radar renegade at pro compare to the mickey Thompson Baja boss at?
Mickey Thompson Baja Boss AT >>>>>>> Radar Renegade AT Pro
@@TrailBuilt are you saying the Mickey's are way better? I know they are at the opposite ends of the price spectrum, but are the radars good enough for a weekend warrior off road and good on road? Hard to find the Mikey Thompson's where I live.
So what’s the score with general tires as they didn’t get a single mention in your video
Since there are no way to get Goodyear Wrangler Duratracs for 17 inch wheels here in Europe (at the moment anyway) I wish they'd start shipping Toyo Open Country AT3's here, since those would be my next pick. I don't need M/T's for my use, tho I gotta admit BFGoodrich KM3's would look just so damn good 😅
GOODYEAR Wrangler Duro tracks number one number two Toyo open country AT3 number three ko 2
@@bumblebee8599 We have very limited options here sadly, so those Toyo's might not be available 😔
What about the Wrangler Duratrac
Not a bad option! Heard a decent amount of reviews from people in the past on them. Check out some videos we have done about them! th-cam.com/users/TrailBuiltOffRoadsearch?query=Duratrac
What is the biggest size tire I put on a 2000 jeep Cherokee with out a lift kit or curing anything
M/T because f*ck gettin stuck!
Is there going to be a rubber shortage due to a rubber tree disease ?
That's a fantastic question. Let me dig into it a bit and get back to you!
Big tire go burrrrr
I like filling my girlfriends evacuation void🤤
The KO2 were the worst all-terrain tires I have ever used. Kenda AT tires have been outstanding!
Kenda's are worth their weight in gold!
@@TrailBuilt I've been impressed with the Kenda AT for what I use them for. Not a bad $99 from Walmart (265 70R 16). I was scared of the K02 in wet weather.
Tires in the video= a/t r/t and m/t meanwhile the tire i use= super extreme tire i dont think it's same with mt cuz the tread block big af, wear faster and sound like a helicopter in the road

Rugged terrain?????? Never heard of it!!!
I'll take a mud terrain and drive circles around them on the pavement. Then head to the trails and leave them stuck like chuck.
Never in my life have i heard hybrids be called rugged terrains that had to be made up on the spot before recording 😂
Seriously?
@@Icutmetal pretty serious
@@buffalobmf Nice troll; I’m not biting.
@@Icutmetal hell you talking about? Im being serious never in the 15yrs of being in the Offroad culture has anybody called that category rugged terrains
@@buffalobmf is there any point to your statement? I believe icutmetal and I fail to see it...
Hybrid tires are useless. Get an AT tire with a tread warranty. Hybrids and muds don't offer that
They don’t?
Toyo RT
Yokohama X-AT
Cooper Rugged Trek
Mickey Thompson ATZ P3
Dick Cepek Fun Country
Pro Comp Extreme MT
Mickey Thompson Baja Boss AT
Atturo Trail Blade XT
What would you consider all these? They’ve all got treadlife warranties; as well as plenty others, I’m sure.
@@Icutmetal let me rephrase that then. MOST do not come with a tread life warranty. And if there is a tread life warranty it won't be close to what you'll get from an AT tire. 25k to 45k is about max.
My Toyo RTs come with a 40,000 mile warranty. Most ATs come with a 50,000 mile warranty. What tire has the best warranty?
My toyo rt have 43k miles
Kanati Trail Hog is not a RT tire.
