Tires Toyo or BFGoodrich
I had 35" BFG KO2 AT's on my Tundra. Loved em'. First set got 55K miles. MPG's were 14-16 (if that matters).
I recommend Toyo tires, Bridgestone and Michelin. We usually go with toyo but all of the 3 have served us well
I ended up getting the Toyo Open Country ATIII tires as recommended by some of the posters below, and my tire shop! These seem to last longer than some of other options I was looking at, and don't need rotation as frequently. They're also rated as all-season tires, which is a nice plus for New England.
So far I've driven them offroad quite a bit in VT on the NE BDR, some trails in NH, and out on the beach at the Cape Cod National seashore. They've handled it all very well.
As far as road manners go, they are nice and quiet, but of course they are a slightly louder than highway tires. nothing obnoxious. They've also done just fine with grip on wet asphalt, and are fine on dry asphalt as well. I don't think they are as responsive as the HT tires were for steering on the road, but they track nice and straight.
Go with BF Goodrich Comp-2's. I've had a set for over 4 years and over 50K miles. They are nearing the end of their life but still very sticky even in the wet.
BF Goodrich comp 2 we’re the replacement. Much quieter and nicer ride.
BF Goodrich KO2 - have them on my WRX and Crosstrek I absolutely love them.
I just put a set of Toyo AT3 on my truck. Feels like I'm driving on Velcro compared to the KO2's. Those tires were great on the trails, but felt like I was gonna end up in someone's front yard in the rain.
Toyo GSI-6. Blockier pattern does well in heavy snow and is still good on ice and slush, but a shorter life.
I have the KO’s. They don’t balance for shit and are very soft. They have decent grip, and aren’t terribly loud. This is my third set.
I just got my first experience on the Toyos this morning in some snow here in Virginia. The Toyos were really pretty awful :-(. They're fine for getting going and driving around - in fact, even starting off a hill was really no issue, but God help you if you have to stop quickly...because they wont. It was a slide-fest even with just a thin layer of snow.
