Tire reviews & comparisons

Ozmen

Hi Folks. I'm Ozmen, and I work as a tire designer. I understand finding a tire isn't easy, as there are so many variables involved. But with me around, tire selection would never bother you again.

Falken Wildpeak AT3w

Pro Comp AT Sport vs Falken Wildpeak AT3w

Out of both the Falken Wildpeak AT3w provides you with a superior wet grip, and a comfortable ride on pavements, whereas on rugged terrains, it's nearly better in almost all of them, as ti features a more open design with a lot of tread depth. On the other side, the Pro Comp AT Sport is better on dry roads, provides better fuel economy and tread life and it's durability is almost on part with it's counterpart providing 3 ply sidewalls, so it's not too far off on tougher tracks off-road.

Falken Wildpeak AT3w

Mickey Thompson Baja Legend EXP vs Falken Wildpeak AT3w

So out of both tires, off-road Wildpeak AT3w provides you better sand traction and grip on gravely roads, and on roads, you get an enhanced traction on both dry and wet pavements, slightly better tread life, better fuel efficiency, and overall comfort. On the other side, the Mickey Legend EXP gives you a good traction on highways, but only when things are dry, though off-road the tire is a beast, conquering rocky and muddy terrains like a pro. Though despite having all season compound it lacks on snowy terrains, and it makes sense why it's not rated with sever winter ratings like its competitor.

Goodyear Wrangler Ultraterrain AT

Goodyear Ultraterrain AT vs Falken Wildpeak AT3w

So we have learned here that the Goodyear Ultraterrain features a structure which is better on dry road (especially when it comes to steering response), fuel economy, winter traction (lighter terrains only), and off-road does a better job when it comes to gravely roads. Wildpeak AT3w on the other side, is great on wet roads, provides superior comfort, and a quieter ride, and is a great pick for rocks, sand and mud, as it offer bigger groove mouth.

Toyo Open Country AT3

Toyo Open Country AT3 vs Kenda Klever AT2

Toyo Open Country AT3 provides you with better dry performance, and tread life on pavements, and on rugged tracks, it brings better traction on rocks. Kenda Klever AT2 on the other side, features a supple tread compound which yields superior wet and winter traction. And the tire's lighter weight also allows it to be great for sand climbing and fuel efficiency.

Toyo Open Country AT3 vs Goodyear Wrangler Ultraterrain AT

Let me close this up by explaining both on and off-road performance. So on roads, the Toyo AT3 does better on dry roads, provides you with better tread life, and is quieter off the two, whereas the Goodyear UltraTerrain provides better fuel economy, and wet + winter grip. Off-road besides sand traction, where Toyo AT3 has an upper hand, the Ultraterrain takes care of the rest in a better way.

Falken Wildpeak AT3w

Cooper Discoverer ST Maxx vs Falken Wildpeak AT3w

Although out of both the Cooper ST Maxx lacks a little on highways, especially on wet ones, it really makes up for it with it's off-road performance. Though still if you want to find a better balanced on and off-road tire, you should go with Falken Wildpeak AT3w.

Toyo Open Country AT3

Toyo Open Country AT3 vs Hankook Dynapro AT2 Xtreme

Overall both tires have similar dry and wet traction values on pavements with only minor differences (mentioned them all above), though Hankook Xtreme with next gen compound provides better all season traction that's why it does great on winter terrains. Moreover, you also see better results on this tire in terms of fuel economy and off-road, on sandy dunes. Toyo AT3 on the other hand, gives you a quieter on-road ride, more tread life, and off-road it rocks on rocks and is also good enough on muddy terrains.

Toyo Open Country AT3

Toyo Open Country AT3 vs Nitto Nomad Grappler

Out of both tires, although their dry traction is on par, wet traction is seen better on Nitto Nomad Grappler, as the tire features superior siping, which also provide enhanced winter traction. And off-road, it provides superior sand traction. Toyo Open Country AT3 on the other side, is better with tread wear, and provides you with a quieter ride, and although it's mud and rocky terrain traction is not so great, its still better in comparison.

Falken Wildpeak AT3w

Bridgestone Dueler AT Revo 3 vs Falken Wildpeak AT3w

The Dueler AT Revo 3 is a great catch for daily driving, though you would have to compromise a little on wet roads. Wildpeak AT3w on the other side is great with wet grip and hydroplaning, it's going to consume more fuel. Though you also get enhanced off-road traction with it as well, as that durability comes from a thicker tread rubber and solid internal construction.

Toyo Open Country AT3

Toyo Open Country AT3 vs Cooper Discoverer ST Maxx

So overall, although Cooper ST Maxx provides you with a decent on-road grip on dry (especially directional), with such wider grooves it's still not enough compared to its counterpart. And that goes especially for wet traction, though its not good on both tires. Toyo AT3 on the other side, performs better in nearly all on-road metrics, and lacks off-road comparatively.

Falken Wildpeak AT3w

Hankook Dynapro AT2 vs Falken Wildpeak AT3w

Out of both tires, although you are going to see a superior performance on rugged terrains, with Falken Wildpeak AT3w, the tire still shines on wet roads as well. Though on dry the Hankook Dynapro AT2 is taking the lead. It's also much better with fuel economy as well, though onpar (almost, if not better), in terms of tread wear. Moreover, both tires have a thermal adaptive rubber so you get a good enough performance when it comes to winter traction as well.

Falken Wildpeak AT3w

Atturo Trail Blade XT vs Falken Wildpeak AT3w

So overall, we have learned here that on dry and wet roads you get a clear winner, the Falken Wildpeak AT3w. The tire is also very quite on roads, and in terms of fuel and tread wear, let's just say it's better in comparison. On the other side, the Atturo Trail Blade X/T features paddling grooves that do great on sand and mud, and provide longitudinal climbing on rocks as well.
