Toyota 4runner Tire Review Highlights
Writing about the Nitto Terra Grappler G2 given 54% (265-70-17)
These have been great on my wife's 2018 4runner. We bought them in 2020 and they are still going strong here in 2026. I was expecting about 55-65k miles out of them but we are over 65k now and they still have all the siping and good tread depth. The tire or getting "old" not worn out.
I will be looking for something better in the rain and ice. These are too slippery, 4 wheel drive is a must on anything like ice or fresh rain.
I will be looking at the G3s because they say they are much better in the wet and ice but I am not convinced yet.

Writing about the Continental TerrainContact AT given 78% (265-70-17)
These were used on a 2019 Toyota 4Runner TRD Off-Road in the Denver Colorado region.
These were used for ~10 short easy to moderate offroad trips consisting of trails with sand and rocks.
These were used on about 15k miles of long road trips, the rest was commuting and short trips.

My priorities for these tars were confidence on ice, wet ice, wet pavement, snow, and gravel.
These replaced the OEM tires, which I believe were Bridgestone Duelers.

I hated the OEM tires in any cold and wet weather. I did not have confidence stopping in wet conditions.

These have been terrific. First, they have worn better and more evenly than most tires I've owned in my life. It is very satisfying that both front and tires have worn almost equally across the full breadth of tread and for the life of the tires.

Snow and wet traction was the reason I bought these and for AT tires, I have been very happy. They are not perfect, but I always felt I had great control and feedback. For me, it isn't only that tires have good traction, but also that I have good feedback when they are losing or at the edge of traction and I always felt confident and in control with these tires. I could always feel slip before a loss of traction in both wet and dry conditions.

I don't drive enough different vehicles to comment on gas mileage or noise in a comparative sense, but my mileage on the 4runner has been dead on manufacturer estimates. Road noise is noticeable at highway speeds

I'm not a frequent offroader, but I have taken these on mild trails many times, and moderate trails a few times. On one moderate trail, the tires were abused on sharp rocks and steep inclines. They took a fair amount of damage to the lugs. Still, they went another 10k miles with no issues.

Now that these are at the end of their usable life, traction is noticeably diminished, with about 1/16" tread in the middle of the tires this is expected, but it is still surprisingly decent except in snow.

I think tire technology has improved and I'm considering Nokian Outpost nATs as replacements, but if I had to buy these again, I would have no regrets. I'm very satisfied with them.

Writing about the Bridgestone Dueler HT 684 given 44% (225-45-17)
Getting ready to buy a set of Michelin. These Bridgestone came with the car when new. They have always been super slick on rain.

Terrible! These came on a certified preowned 4Runner that had less than 50k km when purchased. They are passable on dry pavement but dangerous on light snow (even with 4wd engaged).

Writing about the Mickey Thompson Baja Boss AT given 81% (265-70-17)
Driving on a combination of roads for 50000 average miles
On our second set of M-T Baja Boss AT's on our 4Runner. The tires are great on the road, lots of grip in virtually on conditions. We have had them in LOTS of rain and flooding and they handle wet weather amazingly. Only had them in snow/ice once, but we had no issues there. We got roughly 45k miles out of our set of XL load range tires and they wore evenly. They only started making some noise in the last 5k-10k miles, but nothing crazy. Comparing them to our Toyo Open Country's we had before, these are a much better tire. Highly recommend.

Driving on mostly town for 0 easy going miles
Assumed tires were fine as there was no issues in summer. Seem to be okay on snow but deadly on ice. Don't trust these are all season tires and don't buy them for winter. Unsafe for the road. I spun out 3x on small patches. Had to buy new tires.

Writing about the BFGoodrich All Terrain TA KO2 given 86% (345-75-16-)
Driving on a combination of roads for 50000 average miles
I had these on my 4Runner for years. Used in all kinds of weather and terrain. Always gave me complete confidence no matter what : snow, wet, dry, pot holes, dirt.... you name it I was confident these tires could handle it. I would buy again. Also, for a snow/all terrain they were reasonably quiet and comfortable and gave good wear. Keep em aired up and rotate and you will get the warranty wear out of them.

Writing about the Yokohama Geolandar AT S given 21% (285-70-17-)
Driving on mostly country roads for 10000 average miles
Extremely Disappointed with Yokohama Geolandar AT Tires
I purchased Yokohama Geolandar AT off-road tires in March, expecting high quality from a reputed brand. However, one month ago, one of the tires developed large balloons and eventually burst. Despite this clear manufacturing defect, Yokohama refused to honor the warranty, stating that since the tire had already burst, it wasn't covered.
To make matters worse, another tire has now developed two balloons, again a clear sign of a defect, yet Yokohama continues to deny responsibility, claiming it’s not a manufacturing issue, even though the tire is still under warranty.

This experience has been extremely disappointing. It’s not just about poor product quality but also a serious safety concern. Defective tires like these are a major risk to life, and Yokohama’s refusal to address the issue under warranty is unacceptable. I strongly advise others to think twice before purchasing Yokohama tires, as the company does not seem to stand behind their product or their warranty

Writing about the Kumho Crugen HT51 given 73% (265-65-17-)
Driving on mostly country roads for 30000 spirited miles
I've had the Kumho Crugen HT51 for about 30,000 miles on a 4x4 4Runner. I purchased these because in some other tire tests, they were rated close behind one of the top-scoring Michelin Defender LTX/MS, at a much lower price. They seem to be a clone of that tire.

Overall, these tires have provided good dry, wet, snow, and ice traction, and excellent fuel mileage. My 4x4 4Runner with a lift averages over 20mpg. My one complaint would be that the shoulders seem to wear a faster than the center, and they don't have full-depth cipes. Despite having a 60k mile rating, after 25-30k miles, they're already mostly bald on the shoulders and the tires are already losing some snow and ice traction.

One amazingly shocking and unexpected "pro" has been offroad performance and durability. I haven't had a true off-road or all terrain tire, but I've done some moderately intense offroading in these, which they definitely weren't made for. I was terrified, and really just crossing my fingers I didn't get a blow out on some rough high-clearance, 4WD-required jeep roads, like the Lead King Basin and the American Basin. But these tires somehow just kept trucking. I probably just got lucky, but I'm still impressed.

Would I buy these as an offroad tire? No. But if you're planning on doing 95% on-road highway and forest service road driving, and are looking for great dry, wet, snow, and ice traction, and good efficiency, from a budget tire, I would put these near the top of your list.

Writing about the Nokian Hakkapeliitta R3 given 0% (265-70-17-)
Driving on a combination of roads for 7000 easy going miles
R3 SUV purchased Oct/21. We are mandated winter tires October 1 to April 30. I don’t care how they drive in rain, what they look like or how noisy they are all I care about is severe winter performance. These tires have poor lateral grip and braking and acceleration on hard compact snow is terrible. I don’t know if these tires were not cured properly or just a poor compound. They remind me of bias belt tires from the sixties. I cannot recommend these tires. I have been licensed for 60 years and have driven public transportation and motor coaches for 30 years, several smaller vehicles and motor cycles.
