Bridgestone dueler A/T Revo 3

Firestone Destination XT vs Bridgestone Dueler AT Revo 3

So as discussed above in detail, both tires have their good and bad. The Firestone X/T comes with a malleable compound providing you with greater wet road stability and traction, and staying soft on snowy terrains (featuring 3 peak mountain snowflake rating unlike its competitor). Moreover it's off-road traction is also superior, as seen in almost all terrain types.

Goodyear Wrangler AT/S

Goodyear Wrangler AT/S vs TrailMark

Goodyear Wrangler AT/S, is although slightly more aggressive than its counterpart, the tire still manages to supply you with superior wet and winter performance (on pavements). And of course, off-road it's definitely a much better pick, as it offers much nicer rocky, muddy and sandy terrain traction. The Goodyear TrailMark on the other hand, does great when it comes to dry highway grip, steering response, and it's fuel economy, tread life, and comfort is also ranking better as well.

Hankook Dynapro ATM

Hankook Dynapro ATM vs Goodyear Wrangler Adventure

Hankook Dynapro ATM lacks to its counterpart in the on-road traction section, but only in dry conditions, as on wet, it's grip and handling efficacy is superior. Moreover, the tire is a better pick off the two, when it comes to rugged terrains, like sand, rocks, gravel and even a little bit of mud. Goodyear Wrangler Adventure is generally a better on-road tire, as besides traction, it also gives out better fuel economy, tread life and comfort performance.

Michelin LTX M/S

Goodyear Wrangler Adventure vs Michelin Defender LTX M/S

Out of both tires the Michelin LTX MS being an all season tire offers better results in all on-road performance metrics. It's better in terms of gripping and steering response (on both wet and dry asphalts), and it does great reducing on-road noise, brings better tread life, and supplies superior fuel economy. The Goodyear Wrangler Adventure on the other hand, although is only lacking by a margin on dry roads, it's wet traction can be improved a good deal.

Bridgestone Dueler AT Revo 3 vs Goodyear Wrangler Adventure

Bridgestone Dueler AT Revo 3 vs Goodyear Wrangler Adventure

Let's sum things up here. The Bridgestone Dueler AT Revo 3 although lacks in the highways performance section, with limited traction and steering response, the tire makes up for it on (mild) rugged tracks. Moreover, despite having 3PMSF rating, it also features superior winter traction.

Hankook Dynapro AT2

Hankook Dynapro AT2 vs MT2

Hankook Dynapro AT2 provides you with better on-road girp, handling and steering response, which is no surprise, given it's a considerably less aggressive. Same goes for its other on-road dimensions, such as fuel, comfort and tread life, they are all seen much better on this tire as well. But off-road, of course, the beast, Hankook MT2 shines, in nearly all key terrains, including mud of course, sand, rocks, as well as gravel and dirt filled roads.

Yokohama Geolandar G015

Hankook Dynapro AT2 vs Yokohama Geolandar G015

Both tires have their good and bad. The Hankook Dynapro AT2 is great on dry roads, in terms of traction, tread life and off-road offers superior grip on mud and rocks, though lacks in sand to its counterpart. The Geolandar A/T G015 on the flip side is great on wet performance, and offers amazing comfort values without compromising too much on fuel economy.

Michelin Defender LTX MS

Continental TerrainContact AT vs Michelin Defender LTX MS

Although its not recommended that you skip all of the above, for folks in a hurry, let me compile down everything. The Continental TerrainContact is the quietest all-terrain tire, which also does great in terms of grip on dry roads. And although it gives out higher rolling resistance with that grip, it's tread life is still relatively better, if you compare LT sizes.

Goodyear Wrangler DuraTrac

Kanati Trail Hog vs Goodyear DuraTrac

Although both tires look very similar to one another, there are still a lot of difference between them. Let me summarize them for you. The Kanati Trail Hog is although pretty lacking on roads, its a good enough tire in comparison when it comes to dry grip, and winter traction.
