Best tyre content on the internet, I wouldn't care if the video was an hour long. A significant factor for me, which I glad you gave information for, was 'winter rated' or not.

Don't put a lot into the "winter" ratings. I've had tires that weren't rated as such which easily outperformed those which were. Additionally, that rating only tests straight-line performance, not turning or stopping.

This is the first time that I came across your channel and a owner of four different Toyota Land cruisers. I at 15 years old.. now 70.. back in the day I was chasing Toyota Land cruiser sponsored by Olympia Beer in the Baja 1000. Okay enough bragging your channel your review your testing is by far the best and I wish you the very best on your channel on KZread and hope you make loads of money. Also my favorite tire is made by Continental the grabber tire I have it FJ cruiser that has 60,000 mi on some general grabbers and of course they are a continental company. Continental's been around a long time On my Lexus 470 and 460 I'm running Yokohama's and I will be trying out some BF Goodrich. Thank you for a very intellectual and professional review.

You guys put together a the best All Terrain Tire review available online. Would like to see the Falken wildpeak A/T and the Cooper Discover A/T added to the list. My current setup is the Pirelli Scorpion A/T on a 2500 sprinter loaded down to 7,500 lbs. I agree the tire is noisy and has decreased my fuel mileage. But other than that, they has performed exceptionally well. Never let me down off-road or in the snow and rain. Keep up the great reviews!

It's the best tire comparison video I've seen. I've been looking at new tires, and this video was well, planned, thought out, and executed. Well done, thanks.

Most informative and comprehensive tire review I have ever seen. Great job. Thank you so much.!

Wow so much good footage on this test, so satisfying to watch the truck gliding around the track ✨ Also- I like your use of the word wally

Would definitely love to see the same testing on more off road oriented all terrains as mentioned. Specifically the on road dry/wet and rolling resistance performance. Mickey Thompson Baja Boss AT, Goodyear Wrangler Duratrac, Nitto Ridge Grappler, Falken Wildpeak AT3W, Yokohama Geolandar X-AT, BF Goodrich All Terrain KO2. That would be an awesome comparison! Keep up the good work. Love your videos.

Amazing content! The most complete review I've seen by far, just what I was looking for. Keep it up!

Love the addition of the calculator to your website! Winter rated, made in Canada and great off-road/on-road features plus after sharing this video with my Cat, she agrees the Firestone AT2's lineup with our preferences. Excellent video once again and looking forward to your next two releases!

Yes. There are differences. I had some BFG k02s and they were ok in snow. I found they didn't have enough siping so I added more sipes with a tool and it made a huge difference.... gripes awesome in snow now. Got 40000 miles and they are still good.

Outstanding video! I appreciate the time and effort to make it. I had the Continental Terrain Contact A/Ts on a 2016 Ram 1500 and they were excellent but they wore out prematurely. Because of that, Continental gave me $300 towards the purchase of another set so I bought the same tires except I went with the LT version which were slightly more $$. Huge difference in wear. They were exceptionally better compared the standard versions which were very good to begin with. If you get All Terrain tires, get the LT versions especially if you tow or carry heavy loads. I never knew the difference until I owned both.

Ok, I gotta comment. Your link to weigh the test results how you want is brilliant! Never seen that before and really helps me. Thank you!

I have been very happy with the Firestone Destination LE2's on my 2WD Frontier, and I was looking for better gravel performance with the next set. I was stunned to hear you pronounce its AT cousin to be in the top group, above several more expensive and better-known tires. A simple choice for me...

Top class work yet again. I think the mild A/T group is rather underappreciated in tire selection, because most don't spend the time off road to justify lower performance on road. Trading looks for safety isn't worth it.

Tires like the BFG Trail Terrain, the new Nitto Nomad Grappler and the Falken A/T Trail were introduced to give the CUV and light SUV weekend warriors more durable tires with a little more grip and durability than a purely highway oriented tire. While at the same time being lighter and more livable during the ninety percent of their lives spent on pavement than their more aggressive all terrain counterparts. Tires like the Toyo A/T III and others in the same vein like the KO2 or Falken Wildpeaks really only come into their own in more difficult terrain and light mud usage where their more open tread blocks and aggressive shoulder lugs plus more durable carcasses help heavier trucks or more adventurous souls get over rougher terrain.

I've spent the last few days looking at tire reviews, and yours are far and away the best. Thanks. Most of the rest, as I'm sure you know, consist of someone reading the maker's advertising, or poking the tread with a finger while imagining how well it might work. A few just say "Well, it worked fine for me." I'd like to see you test in 6 - 12 inches of new snow. I also think it would be useful to know the temperature when testing in snow and ice. I live in the Colorado mountains and drive a '97 4Runner. Mostly pavement, some dirt roads, very little off road unless you count my driveway. A bit rough, steep, and partly shaded from the sun. In winter It varies from highly polished ice to a foot or two of lovely powder. On top of the highly polished ice. No tyres are going up in deep snow but I'd like to be able to deal with a foot depth. Plus, of course, safe traction on dry and wet pavement. Based on my experience and (mostly) your tests, I'm about to go to town and buy a set of Goodyear AT Adventures. I'll let you know in the spring. Thank you again for your work. Lynwood Wilson

Best Tire tests ever! I frequently refer others to your tests. As for testing, more aggressive A/T tires, besides the must test BFG KO2, I'll mention some tires others already have, the Mickey Thompson Baja Boss A/T, the Nokian Outpost A/T and two tires not mentioned, the MileStar Patagonia A/T Pro and the Hankook Dynapro A/T2 Extreme, though I suspect this last one might be a better fit in the mild A/T tire comparison. I can't quite figure out what might make for the best aggressive A/T tire testing but Mud, tread puncture resistance and sidewall durability are must test items. I'm very much looking forward to the aggressive A/T tire test results!

Love the info. Sportier options leaning towards a road biased tire like the Falken Wildpeak A/T Trail would be interesting to compare.
