    I did a search but could not find anything.
    Need to replace my son’s tires on his 2005 Tacoma.
    He currently has 265/65r17 Nitto Crosstek. Decent amount of tread life but lots of dry rot in tread, some plugs and I have no idea how old these tires are, came with used truck.

    Would like something good on light off-road, decent looking aggressive tread but that’s good in rain. We get a bunch of rain here and hrdroplaning sucks:)

    I've used Firestone Destination A/T s and have been happy with them. I'm in Florida so plenty of rain. They are moderately priced.

    The Cooper AT3 look like a good all round tire that can handle rain.

    I like the Nitto Ridge Grappler. Perform great in the rain IMO.

    I've recently switched tires. Best priced tires out there are between Falken Wildpeaks AT3 and Cooper AT3. Can't go wrong with either choice.

    Exactly what I was going to say. I have the Falkens on my 2nd gen, and the Coopers on my 1st gen. I love both of them, and I'll probably buy them again. I also like that you can get the Falkens in 265/285 in P rated.

    This was my first choice because they look better than the Coopers but Discount tires were sold out of my size when they had the $100 off 4 tires. I think a set of four would have been $356 after the $100 off.

    Coopers were $428 after $100 off but got a $70 rebate with them. ($358)

    All with free shipping!

    Cooper ATW's, they are AT3's with more siping (better ice traction).
