Another another tire thread

I hate myself for doing this but here we go anyway. I have a 17 Sr5 Stock. Cooper AT3. Got about 20k and they are getting bad. I was thinking TOYO at3 or grabber ATX. Daily driver about 50 miles a day half highway. Grabbers are about $160 cheaper so really for me cost isn’t the deciding factor. Very little off road but honestly still want the “look”. Wet and snow traction are my biggest wants I suppose. Tire rack rates the grabber slightly better for whatever that’s worth. What should I get??

I put 20k on ATX’s in the rainy and snowy PNW this year and loved them. Can’t recommend them enough for that use.

Had the coopers a few years ago and never got them to balance out, gave them away with 5k miles on them to a friend with a yukon worked fine for him, no regrets giving them away.
Then got the toyo at3 and couldn't be happier, very quiet, ride great, would purchase again in a heartbeat.
Didn't get my at3's from this dealer but did get some toyo gsi 6 for another car as I still have good blizzacks for my runner and had great pricing and delivered in 3 days, will use them again in the future.

General Grabber HD

I found the General Grabber HD were great on my 4th gen and I look forward to putting them on my 5th gen. They were fine for woods roads, back roads - definitely not for any real off road but they balanced great, lasted, were quiet and great traction for an HD tire. I want with the OWL - which looked great with my salsa red 4Runner.

I had run Cooper AT3s for quite a few years as an all-year and winter tire but found at 1/2 tread that they didn't hold their own as a winter tire - went to General Grabber Arctic - which are phenomenal.

I'm running Hankook Winter X for this winter on my 2021 and they grip like crazy but are super noisy especially on wet roads. They say they put in like 25% more sipes and you can hear it. Hopefully going back to General Arctic's next winter!

2020 SR5. I've go two years on Mazama Open Ranges (Purchased at Les Schwab) Very impressed with snow/wet traction, and they're quiet.

Both are good, so kind of a toss up. I'd probably just go with the General ATX and save the few bucks and get a little more aggressive look. The Toyos look a little tamer in the SL sizes.

I’m running the ATX in the Oregon mountains and the rain and snow performance is very good. However, the first set caused a vibration from the rear and a steering wheel shake. After four road force balances in the first 1,000 miles Discount Tire ordered four replacement tires for me. The replacement tires have been good from the start. Onroad performance is good and tread noise is pretty low. My only hesitation is the balance problems with the first set. The first set had a manufacture date of 34th week of 2020. The replacements are much newer at 46th week of 2021.

I have the Toyo OC AT3’s and absolutely love them. Awesome traction for an AT tire on wet, snow and icy roads. These have a very high mileage life and I use them for my daily driving as well as for my off road activities. Honestly I cannot recommend them enough.

Can't go wrong with KO2's IMO. A good balance, alignments, rotations, and proper psi are key. 100k+ miles experience with them on my 4R. 90k on the first set, well into the second set. I run 44 psi for everyday driving, air down off road where applicable. Good luck with your choice!

I just got a set of the AT3's a couple of weeks back at Discount Tire. Love 'em so far.

Everyone I've spoken to that tried K02's in wet places (especially cold and wet places) hated them and constantly ragged on their awful traction when wet.

I live in the Midwest so we get our fair share of rain, snow, sun, whatever else. I’ve never had an issue with KO2’s. I’m always the type too that will get new tires every 30k or less. I think they are a great all around tire.

I have had KO2's in the past on my Pro-4x Xterra and found them to be garbage in wet weather. I feather the gas pedal off the line and would inadvertently spin the tires with the KO2's, even slipped when taking a turn at normal speed and then applying the gas coming out of the turn. Never an issue with my Falken WildPeak ATW3's though.
