I have General Grabber AT2s on my Sequoia. Good snow traction, but terrible wear. I have maybe 25k on them and they'll make it through the winter but not much more. Thinking of going with the Michelin Defender LTX m/s next go round.

Really? I hear them all the time. Family members and friends run them often.
I have 12k on the Cooper ATWs we put on our 4Runner just before Thanksgiving last year. Best AT tire in the snow I've used and the quietest on road. Others were BFGs and General Grabber AT2s. The difference is most noticeable on packed stuff.

White letters out look good for about 10-15k miles IME before they start to get shitty. If you have a really clean truck and will not be in any situations where the sidewalls may get scuffed or damaged it could work I suppose.
Between the tires and new wheel bearing it's too damn quiet in my ride now, can hear every squeak and rattle in the interior.

Great timing on this thread for me also. Bought a used Xterra in the spring with new Firestone Destination M/Ts. The tires look cool, but haven't had them in any gnarly winter conditions yet and I'm thinking they're going to be a real liability as soon as shit gets packed down... Thanks for the discussion! Time to reallocate some ski funding.

Truck Tire Time
Getting dark as I'm leaving the shop, but the tundra looks tough! Looks like a different truck. Thanks for the advice

Bought a set of Nokian Rotiiva at tires for my 4th generation 4Runner this week. Two trips to hood in all conditions and so far very impressed. They're quiet and smooth on dry pavement, and much better than the half worn studded toyos I ran the last few years. They're also surprisingly inexpensive compared to other brands. $600 mounted and balanced. 265/70/17

So other than the OP I didn't see much talk of the Yokahoma Geolander A/T. It's the second best rated tire on tirerack.com and gets great reviews for snow: http://www.tirerack.com/tires/survey....jsp?type=ORAT
Any personal experience?

For a mud tire in snow and ice, I've had the best luck with Cooper STTs siped. I've had them on multiple vehicles. My experience with AT tires is Cooper AT3>Toyo>BFG ATs on mud, snow, ice whatever. I will say I've gotten the most wear out of the BFGs but I'd rather have better traction than buy tires less frequently. Whites in unless it's a cool older truck.
