    Hey guys, what is your go to tire nowadays for offroad traction, mud and snow?
    I only run 24.5 drive tires, and the trucks are not just purring down the hwy all day.
    Some aggressive shoes is what I want.

    We have been running kumhos on the local stuff, Tri axle to 77k and trailer/low bed to 100k, sumitomos have also worked well with an open shoulder on the ten wheeler.

    I’m running Bridgestone 726s because I still do a bit of on road along with the off road, but I may try the kumhos next go, they also mount super easy

    I've ran a lot of kelly KDAs with decent luck.
    I don't get much mileage out of any tire. I also bought a tire groover and before winter I open the shoulders up a whole bunch. Makes a big difference in snow.
    There are some super aggressive tires out there but I wouldn't want to do much on the highway with them
     
    Vampire and MartinFromBC Thank this.
