    Hey looking for suggestions on tires 2013 Tacoma. Not much off road. Wondering how the ride is with All Terrain compared to just light truck tires, or year round?

    You sure your stock size isn't 265/70/16?

    1 vote for Cooper AT3's here. I went up a size (265/75/16) and they run great. Look good too. All depends on what kind of driving you do and your needs in a tire

    What is your on road to off road ratio?

    When you are off road, what type of terrain?

    Do you live in snow country? If yes, do you run dedicated winters? Off road in deep snow, or only see snow when on pavement?

    Then I second @TacomaMike37

    Michelins all the way.

    They might not fulfill the 'bad boy' look others want, but they'll functionally do everything you want, do it well and for a long time.

    Costco currently has the
    Bridgestone - Dueler H/L Alenza Plus for $70 off four and 4 cent installation. I love them on my pavement pounding and occasional packed sand trails, but I don't face winter like you. Makes the net per tire installed ~$146

    They have the
    Michelin - Defender LTX M/S for about $202 net per tire installed.

    However, the Michs will go on sale again for the $70 off four, and if you play the timing right, you can score the 4 cent install with them too. Making the net ~$170 tire

    For the ~$100 delta on a set, IF you can wait for tires, I'd shoot for the Michs.

    If not, the Bridgestones should be a good value, but likely at a lower winter performance level and a shorter life.

    I second a vote on the Falken Wildpeak AT3W. They have been the best tire I have ran. Plus you can find them for under $150 a tire all over online.

    Tire rack is full of reviews that'll point you in the right direction.

    For what it's worth, the Michelin LTX might be a bit more expensive but they last forever.

    I just got the Grabber atx's they replaced the at2's. installed them today. Only one drive home so far. All I know so far is that they are quieter then the KO's were.

    Goodyear Duratracs have served me well for the past 2 years. I’ve hardly ever been stuck with em, they don’t make allot of noise on the highway, and for me they’ve barely worn at all in the past 15,000 Miles. Great tire for on and off-road.
