All weather tires, best ones....

KO2's, hands down!

 

KO2 works well for me

 

+1,000. Love mine. I commute in the snow, often before the plows arrive. They work just as well off road.

 

Well, we get white and silver here in the desert (mostly). I had one of the forest green Tacomas (2011), but 100 degree summers will fry you in a dark vehicle. My wife's Subaru is white too. I did love that green though.

 

Anything that says Michelin on the sidewall

 

I had the Michelin LTX A/T 2 on my second gen and loved them. I might go back to them once my stock need replacement--incredible ride, durability, and you can't beat that Michelin warranty.

 

I ran Nokian Rotiiva's on my last vehicle. Running Nokian Rotiiva Plus on my current vehicle. Plan to run them through this winter, after which I'll run them as three seasons, and get a set of dedicated snows for next winter. Probably gonna stick with Nokian and get a set of Hakkapelita's. Been very happy with the ride, handling in wet, snow and slush conditions. Also, they're quiet, fairly light, and have a nice aggressive tread without having an overall overly aggressive appearance, which I like.

 

There are a lot of great tires out there but from the research I've been doing all over the internet Duratracs get the best rep for snow/ice performance.

 

This is a touchy subject eh lol

 

Well, at the very least, it’s a subjective one. Without reading back through the whole thread, have you made a decision?

 

What about for winter?

 

I knew a pilot that worked for Bearskin Airlines. He use to say "fly the bear and get a scare".

 

I should hold back, because I know several former Bearskin pilots, work with quite a few of them at my current job, and spent a good part of my early career sharing the skies of NWO with them. But another unofficial slogan for them was “Bearskin Airlines; we’ll get you there or die trying.” Kids can be so cruel. And pilots can be so catty.

 

KO2’s all the way!

 

For winter too?

 

Yes, i find them excellent for everything except for really icy conditions.

 

This is the route I plan on taking once funds and space for storage are available. I had dedicated snows for my Subi and it was practically unstoppable. In the meantime I’ve found the falken at3ws to be a good compromise.

 

Looks like costco.ca has KO2s for 250cdn ea/ https://tires.costco.ca/product.aspx?ItemNo=407950&SearchID=2d011155-9285-49a9-bac4-56dd4a974195

 

Was not impressed with my KO2'S, replacing them with some Cooper's.
