Tires Toyo or Goodyear

I've had very good experience with Goodyear Weather Assurance tires.

I recommend Continental winter contact, General altimax arctic 12 or Toyo observe gsi-6. Top 3 winter tires in my opinion for reliability, tread wear, noise and cost.

I have Goodyear assurance triple treads on my 97 Town Car. 5 years old and over 100,000 miles also! Almost $400 each but well worth it.

Maine here. I have Duratracs on my 3rd gen and BFG KO2s on my 2nd gen. They do make more road noise than the KO2s, but seem like they would perform better than them in deep mud and snow. Comparatively, going from stock all seasons, my 2nd gen lost a little MPG with KO2s, my 3rd gen had a larger difference in loss of MPG with the Duratracs. The Duratracs also seem to fling up fewer small rocks and stones than the KO2s, which I definitely appreciate.

My buddy ran them for years on his first gen. They are great tires. Did well in any season British Columbia had to offer. They last a long time too.

I have them on my Tacoma! There is a bit of road noise with them but nothing that is too unbearable. Living in Canada I will say that they have been pretty good in the winter months as well!

I had them on a 2 door JK and now have them in 265/75r16 on my Tacoma. I live in Salt Lake City and need something that will be decent on the highway to Moab, just as good on the trails, and get me up to the ski resorts in the winter. I love the Duratracs, they’re load e so they are heavier but I wanted the beefy sidewalls for rocks. I think the AT3W might be a more sensible tire around town, but these things perform great and look the best of any AT in my opinion.

They worked great when I had them but wore very quickly for me. I have cooper st maxxs now and they have been basically the same but have lasted longer.

Goodyear.

Vw has used crappy American Goodyear Eagle LS-2 back on the mk4 and b6 passat days. So crappy VW issues a TSB for abnormal wear rates.
