I read everything I see and research quite a bit but still am unsure what to get but with winter coming and slick conditions around the corner our 1/4 tread won’t cut up.
We don’t want to spend big money on a tire good for only 3-400 miles so they are done in two trips but we need much more traction then a long lasting truck tire can provide.
I had been fairly solid on Terrabites for the money but having second thoughts. Factory Bighorns are my favorite in traction in multiple seasons but obviously too soft on 1000 for puncture, better ply rating Bighorns don’t have as good traction due to bigger lugs and more sidewall so less cleanout in snow. Our current Ripsaws have lasted and rears still have life but alignment issue on a previous weekend have rendered the fronts dead however they are tough as hell never any issue but suck when it’s slick. Most of the high end tires seem to not provide the miles needed for us. These are my opinions based off of what we’ve had and I see.
Ok so what I’m asking is what kind of tire you prefer?
Seasons and conditions you ride?
Mileage?
Pros vs. cons?
Price point?
