Two scoring systems, side by side

Owner scores come from reviews found online; road-test scores come from instrumented tests. Where they disagree, it is usually a discipline owners rarely push to the limit.

How scores work

Relative score: 0–100. Blends road tests (60%) and owner reviews (40%) category by category, the same way on every TireWheelGuide page. With only one of the two, the missing half is estimated from it, so the score stays closer to average. It needs at least one road test or five owner reviews.
Road tests: 0–100 per score, from published tests, newer tests counting more. Each result is compared with every other tire in the same test, so a win against a strong field counts for more. The average tested tire gets 70, the best 100; with only one or two tests a tire stays nearer 70. The discipline rows show % of the best tire in that test.
Owner reviews: 0–100 from the owner reviews we found online, adjusted for how generously each site rates and scaled like the road tests: the average tested tire gets 70. With only a few reviews a tire stays near the average.

What owners like and dislike

Themes extracted from 441 owner reviews found online.

Pros

Exceptional traction in snow, ice, and wet weather conditions
Surprisingly low road noise and smooth ride quality for an all-terrain tire
Strong durability and long tread life with high mileage capabilities
Aggressive, attractive sidewall styling and robust off-road performance
Excellent value and pricing compared to premium competitors

Cons

Balancing difficulties and persistent high-speed vibration reported by a subset of users
Occasional reports of accelerated tread wear or cupping, particularly on heavier or commercial vehicles
Some users noted reduced traction in deep mud or specific wet/greasy gravel conditions
Isolated complaints regarding weak sidewalls or manufacturing defects leading to blowouts

Worth knowing

Drivers of heavy-duty trucks like the Ford F-350 and Ram 2500 noted that light rear ends and high torque can challenge winter traction, though performance generally met expectations.
Users specifically opting for C-load (6-ply) instead of E-load (10-ply) variants praised the noticeable improvement in ride comfort on lighter SUVs and half-ton trucks.
Owners of full-size vans (such as the Ford E-350) and smaller crossovers (like the Subaru Forester) reported successful, quiet long-distance road trips and confident light off-road traction.

“New wheels for the 50 New wheels on the cx50. Wasn’t 100% sure about the bronze on red but I like it. 17x8 sport terrain cv-1 wheels and 235/65R17 Wildpeak A/T3W tires.”

“FWIW - 29 months and 30K miles on my 235/65R-17 Falken WildPeak A/T3W , keep pressure at 33lbs F/R highway/town - offroad/beaches run at 15lbs apiece, rotate regularly, live in northeast, sand/snow/highways/fire roads/city driving - tires have another 12 mos life.. I've been impressed enough to buy another set when the time comes.”

“We received 8 inches of heavy snow. The WildPeak A/T3W handle it with no problem. Even stopping and starting in the plow wash wasn't an issue. I would purchase them again. Hopefully they will resist weather cracking in the coming years.”

The Nittos do very well in snow. The KOs look great and seem to have a good consensus on this forum Don't know much about Nitto. The BFGoodrich KO2 tires don't do well on wet roads, either slushy or raining. In fact, they are pretty scary. You can read about that all over the web. I had them and glad I didn't have them long. Right now for good performance on road, off road, snow, and wet road, the Bridgestone Dueler AT Revo 3s and Falken Wildpeak A/T3W seem to be your best. I just put the Revo 3 tires on and can't say enough what an excellent tire they are. Here's my Revo 3s and another pic , which are pretty aggressive without being obnoxious. Good luck in your hunt.”

“WILDPEAK A/T3W - SL vs E After watching many videos, browsing forums, FB posts etc, I've narrowed down my tire purchase to Falkens. I need help with one last piece: SL or E rating? I run a 2019 TRD OR Premium with no lift (yet) and plan on light trail runs and a possible road trip to Michigan at the start of the new year. So might be a little snow encountered lol. I understand the E will be a tougher tire, and could be a rougher ride. Thoughts? EDIT - 265 /70 R17 stock size on TRD wheels if that makes a difference.”
