Tire recommendations

[brielee3]

Time for some new shoes, currently leaning towards Firestone destination AT 2 but open to suggestions. Really just looking for a highway tire that doesn't look like it wasn't made for a Honda Civic, any recommendations appreciated.

That's a broad category. Other than appearance, what are the other concerns? (I agree with you that the non-Tremor/FX4 stock tires are terrible from an appearance standpoint.)

Any thought to snow performance? Price?

Just looking for a good all around tire with a little more "aggressive look" without sacrificing to much ride quality and gas mileage. Not opposed to snow performance but not at the top of my list, just looking for something that will get me about 50k miles before replacing in the $200 ish price range. Raised white lettering option a plus. Thanks

Different people have had different experiences with various brands but I've had good luck with General brand tires. Their Grabber all-terrain is available in Maverick sizes and white lettered in most of them. It is also a severe snow service rated tire

I put on the Cooper Discoverer Road & Trail, should check all your boxes except raised white letters.

I just got SCORPION WEATHERACTIVE tyres. All weather but are snow rated. A 60K warranty. And I think they fit the slightly aggressive-look you are alluding to.

Wait for Tire Rack to have a sale and you can get them for around $700 for four.

I got the same tire and they really ride nice even on and off the road

I just replaced mine with Michelin Defenders that I replaced at 26K miles. Much quieter than the Continentals. 2023 xlt hybrid

I went with Michelin CrossClimate 2.

Tire Rack listed these, and it will be what I buy when the time comes, I have had them on a couple of previous trucks and was quite happy with them. Notice 80k warranty.

[ Michelin Defenders 2 ] are the only tires I have used for years on my trucks and have had zero issues.

I have the factory installed wildpeak ATs, 43k miles on them and they are still in great shape. Been very happy with them. When I get new tires I’m leaning towards the Firestone Destination ATs. They seem to be some of the lightest AT tire out there.

I second this. I've been very happy with the Cooper Road and Trail. Traded the original tires in. I also went 245. I think 245's look like what should've been on there from the factory.

Rides good, quiet, great in the snow. One of the lighter choices in the bigger size so I only lost 1-2 MPG

I was also considering going a little wider, what aspect ratio did you go with?
