Bridgestone vs Cooper AT3 4S - Toyota 4Runner Forum

Quick question for you all.

Due to some vibrations on my steering wheel I have been looking at changing tires.

I don't know much about tires, but from what I've been reading, the stock Bridgestone tires are garbage.

Question for you guys, do you think the Cooper AT3 4S tires will be smoother and better riding than the stock tires? Especially since the Cooper tires are an all terrain tire, and the stock ones are a street/highway tire.

I'd precipitate the feedback.

Thanks

Stock tires are generally very smooth. Probably, one of your tire is out of balance or defective. You can try to get Toyota or Discount Tire to balance them and see if there is anything wrong with them.

All-terrains are generally LOUDER and ROUGHER RIDING and lower fuel economy than stock tires. Again, this is a generalization. But if you're looking for something smoother than stock, going AT is not a good idea.

If you want new tires with smoothness, quiet, and mainly on-road (or with mild off-road capability), then get MICHELIN DEFENDER LTX M/S. You cannot go wrong with this tire.
