Pros, cons & observations

Themes extracted from owner reviews found online — not the opinion of TireWheelGuide.

Tire A Wildpeak WP A/T01

Pros

  • Quiet and comfortable on-road, with several reviewers noting very little road noise, including on motorways and rural roads
  • Strong dry-road performance and capable off-road/light trail traction
  • Good initial wet grip and road manners when new; one reviewer found them quieter and better gripping than their previous BFGoodrich T/As

Cons

  • Wet-weather grip that is poor or deteriorates with age, with reports of aquaplaning, wheelspin on hills or tight turns, and a need to engage 4WD in rain
  • Snow and ice performance is weak, particularly in mushy snow, and can fade markedly after the first season or two
  • Tread life is inconsistent and often shorter than expected: about 30k (roadworthy only) on one Patrol, 40-45k per set for another owner, and noticeable degradation by 20,000 km for another

Tire B Trail-Terrain T/A

Pros

  • Low road noise for an all-terrain tire, with several reviewers calling it quieter than previous tires such as the AT3 and other all-terrains
  • Strong snow and ice performance, including a Colorado snowstorm and multiple Alps trips with up to a foot of snow
  • Comfortable, smooth ride and good handling and braking on the road

Cons

  • Poor wet-weather traction reported by several reviewers, including wheelspin, lack of confidence on wet roads and ABS activation issues
  • Some reviewers found road noise high on paved surfaces, and one called it outrageously noisy, though others found it quiet
  • Wear is faster for some owners, with one set nearing replacement after about 20,000 miles and two years

How do we compare tires?

Every category score blends two independent signals. 60% comes from professional tire tests (braking distances, lap times, noise measurements), each result compared with every other tire in the same test and newer tests counting more. 40% comes from owner reviews found online, adjusted for how generously each site rates. Both use one scale: the average tested tire gets 70, the best 100. When a tire has only one of the two, the missing half is estimated from the other and the score stays closer to average; with no road test and fewer than five owner reviews it gets no score yet.

Handling is the exception: road tests measure it inside the dry and wet scores, so its own row comes from owner ratings only and starts as less important.
