    I suppose I should clarify that mine are the Toyo AT3's. And, to be fair, these are LT tires which generally don't seem to perform as well as their SL rated counterparts. they seem to use harder rubber and have less siping for whatever reason.

    I've heard nothing but high praise for Wildpeaks in the snow.

    Also, I could also be spoiled by driving her TC with real snow tires occasionally for the last few years. There's nothing like it.

    Wild peaks are the best tire.

    They're definitely the most popular on this forum. I don't know if that really makes them the best, though.

    I've been overall pleased with my Duratracs thus far - I'll probably be giving the Wildpeaks a try at some point.

    For our trucks and our money they've been by far the best everyday year round performer in Missouri. Kbro2's, and Falken MTs on the Taco failed. MTs were great on the trail, but that's about it. Goodyear Duratracs on the 4runner are just OK, and loud as my MTs, and have had to replace 3 in one year. Had some Coopers on our Tundra prior to the AT3Ws, and dig them a whole lot more. Likely getting a set of 5 for the 4Runner in the spring and stick with them.

    I don't doubt they're fantastic. I definitely trust your judgement, based on how much money I've spent based on your recommendations. :D

    But, there are some other AT's out there that are very good as well. Some are rated higher than the Wildpeaks by user ratings.

    Still a lot of folks having good luck with KO2's. I have only heard a handful of negative reviews compared to many who have really liked them. I'm not saying they're the best, but they were very good for me.

    Agreed.
    I am happy with mine so far and the price is certainly good.

    You should be getting checks from Silky Saw as well! I have turned on a few people to them also. They sell themselves when you see them in action.
