StrengthsThe Cooper Discoverer Road+Trail AT combined strong grip with one of the best road rides in the test. It shared the highest dry cornering grip, set the second fastest wet lap with the second highest wet cornering grip, was second best for ride comfort and shared second place for noise. Tire Rack's drivers found its steering alert and well matched to its grip, and it cleared the emergency lane change almost every time. ConsiderationsIts braking was good rather than class-leading, fourth in the dry and fifth in the wet. It was in the lower half of the snow handling times, and the drivers found it needed a careful right foot in the snow, with less lateral grip than its straight-line ability suggested. Score contributionCategory score × of overall score Dry96.98 × 28% = 27.15 Wet95.33 × 39% = 37.18 Snow94.8 × 28% = 26.54 Comfort95 × 5% = 4.75 | ||||||||||||||||

StrengthsThe Vredestein Pinza AT was the most comfortable and the quietest tire in the test, and it backed that up with the third shortest braking distance in both the wet and the dry and the fourth fastest wet lap. Tire Rack's drivers found it composed on the road and effective, if not exciting, through the emergency lane change. ConsiderationsIt sometimes struggled to put power down on the wet track, with a slightly delayed steering response and some rear-end slip. In the snow it was in the bottom four on lap time, even though the drivers found it balanced and easy to control. Score contributionCategory score × of overall score Dry95.98 × 28% = 26.88 Wet94.64 × 39% = 36.91 Snow93.95 × 28% = 26.31 Comfort100 × 5% = 5 | ||||||||||||||||

StrengthsThe Nitto Terra Grappler G3 dominated the wet and dry tests. It had the shortest braking distance on both surfaces, the fastest wet lap and the highest wet cornering grip, and it shared the highest dry cornering grip. Tire Rack's drivers rated its steering among the best on the wet track, and it cleared the emergency lane change nearly every time. ConsiderationsThe trade-off came on the road and in the snow. It shared the lowest steering and road handling score and was below average for noise, with the drivers finding the steering loose and the ride fidgety over small bumps. It was also the slowest tire around the snow handling course by a clear margin. Score contributionCategory score × of overall score Dry99.87 × 28% = 27.96 Wet100 × 39% = 39 Snow87.7 × 28% = 24.56 Comfort83.34 × 5% = 4.17 | ||||||||||||||||

StrengthsThe Bridgestone Dueler AT Ascent had the second shortest wet braking distance and was the fastest tire around the snow handling course, where Tire Rack's drivers found it quick to steer and well balanced. It was also fourth best for noise and in the top half for wet cornering grip. ConsiderationsIts dry performance was weaker, with mid-field braking, below-average cornering grip and a delayed steering response that meant it failed the emergency lane change more often than it passed. The ride was firm over small, repetitive bumps, and on the wet track the drivers found one axle or the other was always ready to slide. Score contributionCategory score × of overall score Dry93.94 × 28% = 26.3 Wet94.95 × 39% = 37.03 Snow100 × 28% = 28 Comfort88.34 × 5% = 4.42 | ||||||||||||||||

StrengthsThe Falken Wildpeak AT4W had the second shortest dry braking distance, set the third fastest wet lap, was fourth on wet braking and was fifth quickest around the snow handling course. Tire Rack's drivers described it as balanced and predictable in every condition, it cleared the emergency lane change consistently, and its noise was well blended for an off-road all-terrain tire. ConsiderationsIts steering and road handling score was in the lower half of the group, with the drivers wanting more urgency from the steering, and it was prone to spinning up under power in the wet and in the snow. Score contributionCategory score × of overall score Dry96.31 × 28% = 26.97 Wet94.04 × 39% = 36.68 Snow95.63 × 28% = 26.78 Comfort86.67 × 5% = 4.33 | ||||||||||||||||

StrengthsThe Cooper Discoverer Rugged Trek was the best-placed rugged all-terrain tire, third quickest around the snow handling course, and its steering felt direct and natural to Tire Rack's drivers on the road. Its dry cornering grip was in the leading group and it completed the emergency lane change almost every time. ConsiderationsIts wet braking was among the longest in the test. Noise was the other weakness, with the second lowest noise score and the drivers noting a distracting number of distinct tones. Score contributionCategory score × of overall score Dry94.61 × 28% = 26.49 Wet87.16 × 39% = 33.99 Snow97.04 × 28% = 27.17 Comfort80 × 5% = 4 | ||||||||||||||||

StrengthsThe BFGoodrich All Terrain TA KO3 had the highest steering and road handling score in the test, with Tire Rack's drivers praising its quick, accurate response on the road. ConsiderationsGrip was the weakness. It shared the longest dry braking distance, had the lowest dry cornering grip and was in the bottom four for wet braking, wet lap time and wet cornering grip. It never cleared the emergency lane change, and it was second slowest around the snow handling course. Score contributionCategory score × of overall score Dry91.38 × 28% = 25.59 Wet86.3 × 39% = 33.66 Snow92.92 × 28% = 26.02 Comfort78.34 × 5% = 3.92 | ||||||||||||||||

StrengthsThe Hankook Dynapro AT2 Xtreme was competitive on dry tarmac, sharing fourth place on dry braking, with dry cornering grip in the leading group. Its wet braking was mid-field, and its ride comfort and noise were around the middle of the test. ConsiderationsTire Rack's drivers found it hard work on the wet track, needing early braking and losing grip if asked to steer and brake together, and its wet lap was in the bottom half. It shared the lowest steering and road handling score, with vague on-center feel, and was mid-pack around the snow handling course. Score contributionCategory score × of overall score Dry95.58 × 28% = 26.76 Wet89.64 × 39% = 34.96 Snow94.83 × 28% = 26.55 Comfort86.67 × 5% = 4.33 | ||||||||||||||||

StrengthsThe Nitto Recon Grappler AT was one of the quietest tires in the test, sharing second place for noise and the quietest of the off-road all-terrain tires, and it shared the second highest steering and road handling score. Tire Rack's drivers rated its road manners among the best in the group, even against the on-road tires. ConsiderationsWet grip was the worst in the test. It shared the longest wet braking distance, set the slowest wet lap and had the lowest wet cornering grip, with the drivers finding it pushed wide and was hard to control. Its dry braking and cornering grip were also in the bottom four. Score contributionCategory score × of overall score Dry92.33 × 28% = 25.85 Wet83.05 × 39% = 32.39 Snow94.97 × 28% = 26.59 Comfort88.33 × 5% = 4.42 | ||||||||||||||||

StrengthsThe Cooper Discoverer Stronghold AT was second quickest around the snow handling course, where Tire Rack's drivers found its steering commanding and the tire controllable even past the limit. It also shared the second highest steering and road handling score. ConsiderationsIt had the lowest ride comfort and noise scores in the test, with a stiff ride and a loud, layered tone at highway speeds. Its wet and dry grip were middling at best, with braking on both surfaces in the bottom half, and it cleared the emergency lane change only around half the time. Score contributionCategory score × of overall score Dry92.65 × 28% = 25.94 Wet88.65 × 39% = 34.58 Snow97.58 × 28% = 27.32 Comfort71.67 × 5% = 3.58 | ||||||||||||||||

StrengthsThe Goodyear Wrangler DuraTrac RT rode reasonably well for a rugged all-terrain tire, with mid-table ride comfort, and Tire Rack's drivers found it predictable on the dry track, where it cleared the emergency lane change most of the time. ConsiderationsIt shared the longest braking distance in both the wet and the dry, and it was second slowest on the wet lap with the second lowest wet cornering grip. The drivers found the rear could turn abruptly unstable in the wet. It was also in the bottom three around the snow handling course and shared the lowest steering and road handling score. Score contributionCategory score × of overall score Dry92.59 × 28% = 25.92 Wet84.17 × 39% = 32.83 Snow93.85 × 28% = 26.28 Comfort83.34 × 5% = 4.17 | ||||||||||||||||

StrengthsThe Yokohama Geolandar AT4 was fourth quickest around the snow handling course and its wet braking was mid-field. Tire Rack's drivers found the ride firm but composed. ConsiderationsIt shared the longest dry braking distance and was in the bottom four for dry cornering grip, and the drivers found its steering sluggish and its wet handling poor, with erratic ABS intervention. It was also one of the noisier and less comfortable tires in the test and shared the lowest steering and road handling score. Score contributionCategory score × of overall score Dry91.91 × 28% = 25.74 Wet88.14 × 39% = 34.37 Snow96.65 × 28% = 27.06 Comfort78.34 × 5% = 3.92 | ||||||||||||||||

Weighting vs real impact
What decides this ranking
The weighting is how much each category counts. The real impact is how much of the difference between the tires it creates: a discipline in which every tire performed about the same barely changes the order, however much it counts.
No weighting is recorded for this test, so the weighting here starts from Tire Reviews’ season defaults, not from the test’s own scoring.
- Dry Weighting 28% Real impact 19%
- Wet Weighting 39% Real impact 58%
- Snow Weighting 28% Real impact 15%
- Comfort Weighting 5% Real impact 9%
- Wet Circle counts for 12.9% of the score but creates 25% of the difference between the tires, because their results in it were far apart.
- Snow Handling counts for 28% of the score but creates only 15% of the difference, because most tires performed about the same in it.
Every discipline 9
| Discipline | Weighting | Real impact |
|---|---|---|
| Dry Braking | 13.9% | 11% |
| Dry Circle | 13.9% | 7% |
| Subj. Road Score | 0.3% | <1% |
| Wet Braking | 13.3% | 18% |
| Wet Handling | 12.9% | 15% |
| Wet Circle | 12.9% | 25% |
| Snow Handling | 28% | 15% |
| Subj. Comfort | 2.5% | 2% |
| Subj. Noise | 2.5% | 7% |
How it is worked out: each discipline’s weighting is multiplied by the spread of its results (the gap across the middle half of the tires, as a percentage of the best result), then shared out so that all the disciplines add up to 100%. It estimates what separates the tires; it is not a second set of weights, and it follows the weights you set.
How your ranking is calculated
Each discipline is scored against the best non-reference tire in the full test field: best ÷ result × 100 when lower is better, or result ÷ best × 100 when higher is better. Discipline scores are rounded to two decimal places, then combined using your weights.
Within-category weights divide that category’s share of the overall score. A 50% wet category and 40% wet-braking share give wet braking 20% of the total. A weight is a scoring priority, not a measure of its actual effect on the ranking: the performance gaps matter too. What decides this ranking ↑
Published joint positions are preserved separately. Calculated positions tie only when their underlying scores match; two displayed scores can look equal after rounding.
A zero weight excludes that category or discipline. At least one active discipline is required, and the disciplines in every active category must have a positive total.
