Triple Peak Snowflakes Ain't Cheap! Reliants?

[TrailMaster]

Ideally, I'd like to find a good set of Triple Peak All Season tires. Unfortunately I'm on a (low) budget. Anyone know of any great deals right now on Triple Peak Snowflake tires?

Otherwise I'm considering ordering set of Goodyear Reliant tires at 235/65r17 on Black Friday sale at $91 bucks a pop, (around $30 off per tire with free shipping). Over 5,000 4.5 reviews on Wally. Has anyone run Goodyear Reliants in the snow, and how did they handle?

Any other ideas for a good AS tire are appreciated, but as mentioned price IS an object for me.

discount tire had some for $120 each. they also had some black steelies to mount them to for only like $60.

I would like to keep the same setup year round, so I'm really looking for a decent all season tire at a good price.

Milestar Weatherguard AW365 - $113.95/ea Haven't used these and kind of a low-spec brand. Theoretically one of those new-fangled 4-season designs like the Toyo Celsius ($155) or Michelin CrossClimate, although these particular ones kiiinda look just like an old-school snow tire that transitions to a highway tread.

General Altimax RT43 - $118.50/ea - These are more of a traditional all-season, but usually rate very good in winter tests. I've used these on some of our fleet vehicles and they hold up on tread-life.

Just saw the Yokohama Geolander ATs. A bit more expensive, but still reasonable for Triple Peak tires. Never tried Yokos, but have heard good things about them. May pull the trigger...

Ah. Changing to snow tires in the winter.....fond memories...(not)

Went ahead and went with the Yokos. $139 each at Amazon. They are getting some decent reviews, and are Triple Peak rated. Sounds like a good balance of a semi-aggressive tread and quiet ride. At least that's what I'm hoping for.

the Falken wildpeak at3w have 3peak/snowflake rating and thats what i'm replacing the Pirelli skidmarks on my FX4(wtf was ford thinking )

Related question - I wonder which of these "soft-road" tires, like GO15s, Wildpeak AT Trail, and similar offering, do the best on snow? They are all 3peak rated, but that doesn't tell the whole story.

Similarly, I wonder how some "all weather" tires, handle a bit of soft-roading on dirt. Like the Bridgestone Weatherpeak - the tread looks like it would be okay on dirt...

I hopefully have a few years before tires are needed to sort this out lol

Can always check utires.com used but they show remains tread and had "single use" ones that someone tried out and selected another. Delivery is free but you have to get them mounted.

I had those one of my cars. Not bad in snow, but if it's icy, yikes!

I've found nothing is failsafe on ice except safe driving practices. That said, I'm glad I spent the extra money for Triple Peak tires, they should be great year-round.

In the hills where I live, the only failsafe driving during ice is to stay the F home! LOL

I bought the Wildpeak A/T Trails at Discount Tire. They ride slightly rougher than I had expected, and they make the infamous dash-to-windshield rattle worse. But a done deal, now. I'll let y'all know how they do on my hilly driveway in snow - if we get any this winter.

@Ozarkbeard Thank you for the opportunity to earn your business! Much appreciated. Looking forward to hearing how the tires perform for you over time.

Typically the three peak tires are called All Weather not All Season BUT not always. They are for sure better that regular all season tires on the snow. You tube has some test on tires. Here is one on OP tires they bought.
