    I am looking for a good set of all-terrain tires for my 2012 Jeep Wrangler. I am currently looking at Toyo Tires' Open Country A/T. Any other recommendations?

    I think a lot has to do with the terrain in your area. The Open Country is a great AT tire.

    You might also look at the Falken Wildpeak AT3W. Have been looking at some for my XJ. They seems to have a lot of good reviews.

    There are lots of great tires. I would look at anything but Hankook and BFG. I have had multiple problems with both.

    Ok wheel/tire guys. Want to get a wheel tire package thats 17x9 with 305/70 for my 2018 JK. How does that sound for starters? No lift on it yet but maybe soon a 2.5" lift. My concern is tires, I want something for all season (plus snow) thats not loud and decent for occasional off roading. Ive heard some tires have crappy handling in wet and snow but great on dry and dirt/mud. This will be my daily driver as well. Anyone have a set up similar to this, whats your opinions.

    I can't help you with snow. But I really like Nitto Terra Grapplers AT, I also really like the Toyo MT. It is a very quiet mild Mud tire that has performed well on everything I've done, (no snow). We had a blizzard this last year in Houston that left an 1/8 inch of snow on the ground. They had to close the schools and everything.

    Offgrid I was actually looking at those nittos. Gotta keep researching this before pulling the trigger on a $2000+ set up.

    Not sure what size, but Discount tire is having a big Mem day sale. Nitto Terra G2 AT 35x12.50x17s are $279 each

    :rofl::rofl:. To funny Peter.
    I can't add any info or have advice on some of the tires mentioned. But, I have Pro Comps AT tire. And they absolutely suck in the snow. Although a very quite highway tire. And fairly capable in dirt and on sand. Not....an all weather tire. I had BFGs TKOs on my XJ for years. And they handled much better in snow. I know they have a bad rap off road. And my experience there, is very limited.
