Tires NITTO or Firestone
If you don’t need to run in the rain at all I can’t say enough good things about the NT-01s and their speed/longevity ratio and fantastic feel.
I opted for the Nitto Nomad Grapplers myself!
I have Winterforce UV2 tires for my SUV and they are great. Been through some crazy snow in them without issue.
I had Nitto RidgeGrapplers… I had them for 4 years and had tons of tread left after 40000 miles until I got a new job where my truck stayed on that dark asphalt 10 hours a day and they started cracking
Another set of tires I would recommend that is almost never mentioned is Firestone Destination A/Ts. It has always been my go to truck tire. Although I haven't put them on my Tacoma yet, they did great on our '01 Sierra, '05 Ranger, and my uncle's '16 Silverado.
I have Firestone Destination LE2s, and I haven't had much trouble driving in the snow with them. To be fair I haven't ever had snow tires, so I don't have much to compare to. If you have experience driving in the snow already, and drive slow you should be fine.
Nitto Nomad Grappler. I replaced my Falken Wildpeak A/T Trail's with these on my Crosstrek. On road, I find that the hydroplaning resistance is notably better than the Wildpeaks. They also ride a little bit softer. In terms of softroading, they perform pretty much identically.
On stock wheels I'm running Nitto 555 G2's at 305/35 on all 4 corners. Best tire? No. But for the price and treadwear they do fine.
Love nittos on my other truck, but for the raptor theyre terrible, horrible in rain, loud, and heavy as a mf.
I have a set of these on my Jetta and they suck in the rain. Especially as I near the end of their life
