    I'm loving my 2016 DCLB TRD Off Road. I've had a great run with the original stock tires (Goodyear Wrangler w/ kevlar 265/70r16) but it's time to put new tires on. Can anyone speak to AT's that do really well in the rain, on slick roads? I've read countless forums that speak to every other quality about tires, but I'm not finding many comments speaking directly to this. I once had BF Goodrich on my old 4Runner and had a horrible hydroplaning accident on the freeway in light rain. I do 95% of my driving on city roads, with the very occasional off road outing. And those off road outings are quite practical - not recreational (climbing rocks for kicks)

    I'm considering Michelin LTX AT2 and also Cooper AT3s.

    Also going back and forth between staying true to stock size vs a slight increase, to 265/75/16. (essentially for looks)

    From what I've read both those are good on wet roads, I have not ran either tire. From what I've read BFG AT's are bad on wet pavement, I have not ran these either. The Falken AT's are also getting good reviews on here and are cheaper too. I usually run mud tires but have been considering AT's for my next set on my F150 so I have been reading up on AT's lately.

    You can try the Toyo AT. Had these on my 2010 dodge Diesel and liked them in all weather conditions!! Also had Nitto Tera grapplers. Liked them to.
