Best Tires for the Kia Motors Sorento 2.5 XE Manual

I’ve had these Cooper AT3 installed for 6 months now. My initial thoughts and experiences are that these are a great set of tires.
I drive a Kia Sorento with part time 4wd and I do 50/50 road and off road. Dry and mud. I can only say off road these tires haven’t let me down. I’ve driven across Wales in dry and wet conditions and I’ve been very happy with this purchase. They bite well into the mud and get you out of trouble in 4wd. On the road at motorway speeds you can’t really tell they are A/T tires. Only a barely audible humming from the aggressive tread pattern, but you’d really have to pay attention to hear the difference between these and road tires. The only thing I noticed was the slightly softer road feedback through the steering wheel. Even at 35psi the feel of the road is quite soft, but is this because they are A/T tires and not tarmac racing tires? However, this does not affect handling or confidence as they grip the road very well in wet and dry. The soft feel also provides a very comfortable drive on the road.
Yes I will be buying these again when they are approaching 4mm.

Great tires, far better than the Goodyear Wrangler I had before. There's no problem with them, they brake well, they don't skid, great on a wet road. Surprisingly good tires for a small price, I'll probably buy them again.

I'm disappointed in these tires. I've come about 20,000 miles and they're done, slipping in turns in the wet. They're not holding anything back, I need to buy new tires right now. They're my other Goodyear tires and I had a problem with the first ones because one of them snapped on my sidewalk. A well-outspoken brand, and the quality is poor. Continental, Dunlop, Kumho, Yokohama... they're all far better than Goodyear. I never buy that again.

Was expecting more from these, they replaced a very old and worn out set of Bridgestone duelers and the only positive is that they are alot quieter. The mk1 sorento is actually pretty quiet at motorway speeds and these tires are H rated which I liked as the car is primarily used on road and at higher speeds. Ride comfort is worse than expected and a drop from the factory settings is required to maintain comfort but at that point Sidewall flex is quite high. I think I have found a middle ground for pressures but again, not as good as I was hoping for. This tire probably works better in a more 'modern' lower profile size. Mpg has not changed appreciably. The car does not feel as confident on wet roundabouts as the old tires, this model runs in rear drive only unless 4wd is selected for off road use. Not recommended for this car and I will be going elsewhere next time if they ever wear out.
