Tires Toyo or Cooper

Love my 35 Toyo AT3s! Congrats.

This is a great choice if you are looking to upgrade your performance on a stock Rubicon or Mojave, but don’t want to change the ride or incur the extra costs of a lift and rims. These are true 35 inch tires not metric. I picked up 1.25 inch In clearance over the stock Falken MT that came with it. You can get them in a 35x11.5x17 so they fit the stock rims. Ride is excellent and noticeably quieter than the MTs. These are a cross between AT2 and the MT. Still gives you great off-road performance as well.

If you can fork out a little extra, Toyo Proxes A/S sports. Amazing tire in both wet and dry conditions. They’re made to be used on “sportier” drives.

I recently purchased a set of 4 Toyo Celsius 2 tires for my 2019 Kia Optima. After living with them for a couple of days, they're good but they have a couple of weird quirks.

Pros: Pretty quiet, great snow/ice traction, soaks up bumps great.

Cons: The compound feels unnervingly soft, to the point it feels like it's running on low pressure (it's not). As a result, I feel like dry handling takes a big hit. I can't speak much for MPG but because of how soft the tires are, there seems to be a lot of rolling resistance.

They performed admirably, especially for the price. To my ears they were quieter than the factory Dunlops, and they definitely lasted longer. I replaced them after around 45,000 miles (~72,000 km since I see you are a northern neighbor) because of a sidewall bubble, but that was courtesy of a massive pothole rather than any sort of defect. There was still tread life remaining.

Toyo open country ct are a super durable tire. I've got 60k on my set now and about to replace. Never lost much tire pressure and I've got 3 deck screws in 2 of them that I cut off rather than plug. Couldn't be happier, great grip and look 275/70/r18

I like the Toyo AT-2or3 good and grippy in slop, hardly any road noise that I've noticed on the highway.

Studded Cooper discoverer snowclaws not much to look at but excellent traction on snow and ice

Bought a set of Cooper CS-5 Grand Touring for my RAV two years ago. Best tires I've ever put on a car.

Starfire tires are a budget brand of tire made by Cooper. They're typically using Cooper's older, less advanced rubber compounds, some of which are absolutely terrifying in wet conditions and tend to be OK to good in the dry. They typically have a short tread life.
