I only have experience with the wildpeaks and I really like them. No road noise and I actually noticed an improvement in traction in a spot where I used to spin the tires with my old factory yokahamas.

Pros: no road noise, improved traction

Yup, the Wranglers suck. Thankfully 255/65-19 KO3s coming out soon! And there is enough room for 33s under the new Defender, so 20s aren't a bad option if you don't want to downsize brakes for 18s (on the I6). I'm running AT3s and they are TOUGH. I just need some more sidewall. And it handles/drives so so well. I go from trails to twisties with zero effort or compromise.

Pros: handles/drives so well, zero compromise
Cons: need more sidewall

Kumho Tires

That said, I’ve had a good experience with the discount tire house branded “Rocky Mountain” tires. They’re 3 peak rated M/S tires. And road noise is not bad at all. I don’t even hear it. I have about 15k on them over the last year or so.

Pros: road noise is low
Vehicle: Toyota
Mileage: 15000 km

Just bought these at America's Tire (same company as Discount Tire) and couldn't be more happy with their service and the tires. Better than the Kumhos and the car doesn't shudder any more when coming to a stop on loose ground. Ours was 30 minutes away and worth it.

Pros: better than Kumhos
Cons: car doesn't shudder

I switched my '25 Turbo to the Kumho Crugen HP71's and am very happy with the increased sound insulation and performance. Much better in rain than the Toyos I had (which developed a giant bump on the side wall 3k miles in).

Pros: increased sound insulation
Cons: Toyos developed bump
Mileage: 3000 km

Kumho Tires

Kumho Solus's. Bought them as an all weather tire for a backup vehicle. Reviews seemed mixed but decent overall and the price is hard to beat. They wore faster than winter tires, and didn't have near the same performance. Even with rotations, the tread was gone within 25000 km.

Pros: decent overall, hard to beat price
Cons: wore faster, poor performance
Mileage: 25000 km

I bought a brand new 2003 Toyota tundra TRD Pro with four 285/65- 18 tires and they are completely spent after 27,000 MI.  These tires are rated for $40 to 50,000 mi.... I would never buy these tires again

Pros: rated for high mileage
Cons: completely spent after 27000
Mileage: 43452 km

I got about 25K out of a set of Falken Wildpeaks. I was told that I shouldn’t expect to get more than 30K on any AT tires out in Colorado

Pros: null
Cons: 25k miles only
Mileage: 40233 km
