    There's also an extra alternative for offroading to these tyres especially for winter, which I was intrigued by, but some people are really happy with them:
    - commercial vehicle rated winter tyres
    they are tougher than normal tyres- almost as tough as an A/T - they can handle lower psi, they are really good in the snow and they are really good in the wet compared to A/T or M/T.
    they have soft compound and may wear faster but if you're not doing alot of miles they can last as long as the rubber still has the optimal properties.

    Thank you for the comparison. So sick of people being dumb that is was nice to see a good video on the subject. I fell into the mindset of "AT tires on the 4x4, yeah." Now I live with the road noise and they aren't so good in the snow. D'oh!. Plus as you said they wear like iron, so I'll not be rid of them for years to come.

    Iv driven my H/T tires through 2ft of snow, bumper pushing and glare ice, off camber hills. The soft rubber compound that grip in snowy/wet conditions and plush ride is 100% more important to me. And honestly if Im stuck, its cuz Im planted in the ditch or hung up on the frame where a Coochie Hair of tread on a A/T or M/T wouldnt help anyway.

    I'm a weekend warrior, all trails are about 5 hours away. We do have a lot of gravel roads in our area, so a mild, winter rated AT will probably be fine. My Tacoma will probably only see overlanding/expeditions from here on out. Looking for a family hauler that we can build a little more aggressive for tough trails.

    I just bought a Crosstrek for daily driving, no plans to do any more off-roading than a muddy shoulder, but I want the AWD advantages in the not infrequent heavy rains we get in the southeastern US.
    I notice the Geolandar G91s are as noisy as a shop-vac on the road, leaning toward buying a set of CrossClimate 2s sooner rather than later.

    @JDWard-Jeepster 2 роки тому +2

    Why when you try to step up in width from a 10.50 to a 12.50 you can only buy mud terrain style with a rediculously chunky tread pattern. They should make all terrain tires in the wider widths for sand use etc. Where flotation is useful Also. Mud terrain tires tend to dig your grave in loose sand or river bottom fine silt. If they can make a high flotation Turf Tire for lawn tractors they should be able to make a tire like that that can safely be used on the road.

    Can you mix A/T and H/T tires (2 on the front and two on the back) on the same 2wd vehicle? Same manufacturer and name? Why? Because two only need replacement and what's on there is not available.

  • @GiorgiGachechiladze02
    @GiorgiGachechiladze02 2 роки тому +4

    My highway tires look very similar to that light A/T you brought there, I'd say mine even looks better, Now about the compound I have researched it and it is exactly the same as the All terrain version of the same brand, not just tread plies, but even the rubber compound is same, difference is only in the design of pattern. My tires are rugged, cut resistant and also comfortable on road. I don't need extreme off road, but I use them for all purposes like light-medium off road, snow, wet roads during all 4 seasons. You are wrong about longevity, H/Ts have better treadwear than A/Ts in most cases.

    • @aslkdfjhg
      @aslkdfjhg 2 роки тому +2

      I think when people think AT tires, they think of the KO2, which is a very hard compound, and designed for longevity and dependability at the expensive of wet weather on road performance. HT and other AT are a lot softer, which provides excellent braking and wet weather performance, but has an intended life of around 5 years. After 5 years anyway tires harden up and don't provide the same performance and safety so getting fresh tires in my opinion is more important than which specific brand.

    Falken ZE310 98V 225/55R18 and הי,
    האוטו נרכש,מגיע בשני.
    מה העלות ל4 צמיגים :
    Yokohama Geolandar A/T G015 225/55R18 98HXL
    the cost is almost the same, driving around 10KM a year mostly on cities ,sometimes in the weekend going to off-road level entry trips..
    my question is: in terms of longevity, fuel efficiency is there a big diffrence ? on 10,000 km yearly ? is there a big diffrence for braking in road?

    • @tlr4x4
      @tlr4x4  11 місяців тому

      I haven’t used the Yokohama’s before so I can’t say exactly. However you’re probably going to get a similar performance result from both brands because the tyre sizes you’re looking at will be the same both brands. Grip will be a different question possibly.

    I drive 25km everyday round trip on black top, 10 of those in a very winding, bumpy bad surface bitumen - I must have to be the maddest drivers in Australia then all because I don't particularly putt along- even though no way can I be described as super aggressive. My Pirelli ATR Plus each cost over $300 needed a second hand tyre on the rear just so I could drive legally after 10k! I had them rotated at 5000km and maintained the psi required. My Toyo A25 standard OEM and Bridgestone HT lasted the longest at 15k and 12500k!! Since then I am now driving as if I got an egg sitting on my bonnet which I do not wish to dislodge - my tyres are Grandtrek AT20 OEM see what they achieve.

    • @nirfz
      @nirfz 3 роки тому

      Interesting! I don't really understand why the rear ones are wearing more than the front ones on twisty roads, but then again, i don't know the car and power of it. I can say however that here on the opposit side of the globe, We have a Touareg (previous gen) in our company fleet where we run winter und summer tires, and from the new 8mm tread depth both sets are almost down at 4mm on the outer edge after 2 seasons (wich also eaquals to around 10-15k for each set) It's a heavy vehicle and my collegues have less "mechanical sympathy" when driving on twisty roads (or in general) so the outside of the front tires gets worn dramatically. I'd huess, a heavy vehicle, twisty roads and high temperatures (you are in Australia after all) may be what makes your tires wear that fast. Or maybe a lot of power or even more weight on the rear wheels?
      (If you wouldn't have wrote bitumen, i would have guessed concrete roads. (we had our highways made of concrete for a long time, and while they themselves held for a long time, noise and tire wear was way higher than on the current asphalt)

    I agree. I have mud terrains and on the interstate when you go over bumps or uneven lanes it can sometimes feel downright dangerous at high speeds. Handling on road is awful. The noise is enough to drive you insane on a long drive. Offroad though they perform great. I have gone through some nasty mud and they handle it no problem. I think I am going to switch to a more aggressive all terrain since I do a lot of highway driving and the bad mud situations are not so common with my job. I can't take the noise of the muds any longer.

    No one in right mind will go offroad in a HT tyre unless just the trails, national parks and light off roading. So choices are: HT if you are 80% road and 20% occasional trail/formed track driver OR 50:50 road and sand/gravel road driver; AT: anything between 60-70% road and 40% off road - serious stuff. MT - 25% road and 75% serious off road.
