Pathfinder Sport S A/T

Looking forward to your thoughts, Backinblack03. Thank you for your business!

 

Ive had these for 6k so far and they have been great so far in the rain and heat of FL. So far a quiet tire with the aggressive design. Price and looks are what made me try them out since there had not been many review when i was looking to buy. i do a bit of towing and have been fine as a "P" rated tire(4k lbs and 5 days a week). i did have one replaced due to a screw on the shoulder(not the tires fault obviously)

 

This looks like a great tire for the price. Needing tires in the not too distant future. Have been considering FS destination AT. This seems to be a much better value. I drive a lot of hwy miles, not a lot offroad at all.

Quick website out the door comparison 265/75/16
FS Dest A/T $700
Pathfinder S A/T $599

 

I'm very disappointed in these tires. I went to Discount to get them rotated yesterday and I was told that three tires measured in the "yellow" and one in the "red". The only good news is that the all 4 tires are wearing down evenly, so there is not an uneven wear pattern. I was advised to replace my tires. My vehicle is aligned with the recommended air pressure and its pretty much all highway driving, so I'm not sure why these 60,000 mile tires only lasted 23,000 miles. If Discount is going to push their house brand, I would expect a better product.

 

At 17k I find it hard to believe these will make it 60k. nice even wear as well.

My tacoma is finally not my "do all" truck as i need a bigger one for work. miles will go up a bit slower now but will keep updating

is there any sort of compensation if they dont make it anywhere near 60k? bought from DT as well

 

They said they will prorate my tires towards a new tire purchase, but what a pain in the ass...

 

So, gents, can we get a status update on these? Pathfinder sport A/T's right? 265/70/R17? just seems like there are some mixed reports here.

really would like to hear from you - installed in 2014... should be a very good data point.

let's hear it!

any updates?

Bummer! Pathfinder S AT's right? not just the AT's, right? any updates?

further updates available?

thanks to all in advance!!!

 

i dont drive my tacoma as much as i used too since i drive a different truck for work now. i will update once i hit 20k or so

 

Thanks. I went ahead with it... I drive highway and occasional dirt trail. We shall see how they hold up. So far, I do notice a better ride.

265/70/R17

January 2018 Update
12k miles

 

Tried these on my 2013 Tacoma Prerunner, liked them at first until i tried to corner. they seem to just fold over and get really spongy. twice when cornering on the freeway i felt like i was going to lose control. then someone swerved into my lane on the freeway and had to brake and cut into the lane next to me. the back tires locked up and started skidding. that was just on the first day. never had that problem with the stock BFG Rugged that came with the truck.

 

got about 30k on them now. tread hasnt really moved since last post which is surprising. i am using the eyeball technique though. still drive fine as well

 

I had these tires. They were great while they lasted. I have ~40K out of them and they are at the end of their life. I think i could have got another ~10K out of em if i rotated them more regularly. Bad road noise started showing at the 25K mark. They worked fine offroad, I took them up some gnarly trails and they have always held up just fine. Theyre pretty cheap and worth the money. They work superbly in the snow if thats your thing.

 

Thank you to everyone who shared their experiences with the Sport S-A/T!

 

Update March 2020 - I've got 50K miles on them now - I think i will make 60K then change. They have performed well & likely to put more on

 

Good reports but those look bald to me. I think you’re pushing your luck if you try to get more miles out of them. You probably got your money’s worth.

 

I appreciate the advice and will consider changing them sooner. Nice Burt Reynolds pic lol

 

Lol. Thanks.

I lived in League City for years before moving back up north. I just know Houston area gets bad standing water on the highways. I had a close call with some hydroplaning on some mediocre tires once so I’m just a little more careful now.

 

Glad to see the the Sport S A/T has served you well @Garfish307 ! Shoot us a PM when you're ready to pull the trigger on fresh rubber an we'll make sure you're taken care of

 

i need to recant my statement that they would not make it to 60k

they are at the wear bars but did make it to 60k. time for new tires but i will be going up in size otherwise i would get another set of these.

i noticed a change in mileage warranty while checking today but when i purchased they had a 60k warranty

 

Thank you for your follow up and we are glad to hear they lasted for you. Hopefully the overall experience was a good one.

The Sport SAT has been phased out and replaced with the Pathfinder AT which carries a 50,000-55,000 treadwear warranty depending on the size you go with.

We would be happy to assist further with the size change and order if you would like. PM coming your way.
