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.

The Wrangler UltraTerrain A/T earns strongly positive feedback, with most owners praising its quiet highway manners, confident snow and mixed-terrain traction, and aggressive looks at a price below rivals such as the BFGoodrich KO2 and Duratrac. A vocal minority reports poor wet-pavement grip, noise, vibration or balance problems, and a tendency to pick up and throw stones. Overall it is regarded as a well-rounded, comfortable all-terrain choice for trucks and SUVs.
Pros
- Strong snow and light-ice traction, with several owners rating it equal to or better than Duratrac and Michelin tires, and reporting confident winter driving on steep or snowy driveways and mountain roads
- Quieter and more comfortable on the highway than expected for an aggressive all-terrain tire, often compared favorably with the KO2, Duratrac, Open Country A/T and mud-terrain tires
- Capable off-road in mud, sand, gravel, dirt and rocky trails, with treads that clean out well
- Attractive, aggressive appearance and good value, typically priced below the KO2 and Duratrac
- Durable and even wearing for many owners, with reports of about 25,000 to 50,000 miles and good wear on heavy diesel trucks and when towing
Cons
- Wet-pavement traction is inconsistent. Several owners report easy wheelspin from a stop, a loose feel or poor wet braking, and some call it the worst tire they have owned in the rain
- Stone retention and rock throwing on gravel, especially when new. One owner says it takes 5,000 to 6,000 miles to stop
- Road noise complaints from some owners, including a howl in corners, loudness at 35 to 55 mph or above 75 mph, and a very loud, rough ride in a few cases
- Highway stability and vibration issues reported by several owners, including wandering, sway on a heavy-duty truck, shaking, difficulty balancing, and a soft sidewall feel in corners
- Some fuel economy loss, and weaker ice grip than Duratrac for at least two owners
Worth knowing
- The reviews are dominated by full-size pickups (Ram 1500/2500/3500, Silverado 2500HD, F-350, Tundra, Tacoma). Owners of heavy-duty diesels report good towing and load manners and long wear, with one Ram 2500 Cummins owner getting the best mileage of any tire tried (previously about 20,000 miles). Other Ram 3500 and towing owners reported sway and wandering.
- Lighter SUVs and Jeeps (Xterra, Gladiator, Jeep, Yukon Denali, 4Runner) generally report smooth, quiet rides and good snow and trail performance. One Gladiator owner on a 3-inch lift reports even wear with 3,500-mile rotations.
- Specific sizes are rarely given. Owners mention 17x8.5 wheels on a Ram 2500 and 20-inch fitments on a pickup with positive results, and one owner wanted a 285/60R20 size that is not offered.
