    Looking for the best tire for my DD. I want something that has a good tread life and will do good offroad and in the snow.

    General Grabbers are good, but I've been running Cooper Discover AT/3s on my truck for over 15K miles; In my opinion, the Discovers offer the perfect balance between handling snow and mud, and a smooth ride.

    Noticed you also posted this same thread topic in the 3rd gen section. Just... be careful in there.

    My votes for Falken. I run the MT’s, liked them enough to get the wife a set of the AT’s.

    In the end either tire will be fine.

    Looking at your other thread. You mention and OME lift be sure to checkout this thread

    I have a set of Toyo Open country A/T’s and they seem to be very good so far.

    My vote for the 2 you listed would be the grabber. Wild peaks have a tendency to come from the manufacturer out of round fairly often.
    However if you want another suggestion, since I noticed this isn't your first tire thread, Goodyear makes a new AT that is phasing out the duratrac called the Ultraterrain. It performs on par with the duratrac in winter. But doesn't get the bad cupping issues, or loud howling on the highway like the Duratrac is notorious for.
    Anyways, just my 2 cents

    I was looking at Bridgestone AT Revo 3
    https://www.costco.com/bridgestone.html#dueler

    Comes in a lighter passenger car rating instead of LT (has that too) so I can hopefully keep my fuel economy but still have a slightly more off road capable for the 1 time a year I find a patch of dirt.

    Have been trying to find a more aggressive looking tire that can also have a tiny bit of fun for when I manage to find someplace to off road (hard to find in NJ) but truck spends 99.9% of its time on pavement. However I drive a fair bit so I need to keep my mpg as high as I can.

    I've had great luck with Hancook Dynapro MT and AT. I get the MT syped as I live in colder climates and they work great for drift busting.

    I'm a fan of Bridgestone, but I will admit that the last set I had wore out much faster than I expected. It was a land cruiser so all wheel drive but still. They were the Revo 2s. Those 3s have a good looking tread. I'll bet they would wear much better on the Tacoma being lighter vehicle and standard 4wd not AWD

    No experience with the Grabber but I ride on the WildPeaks in Standard Load 100% street use, but have driven them on gravel roads and light snow. They ride great, wear evenly, and are fairly quiet. My only complain about them is they slip terribly when taking off on wet pavement.
