Changing JLU stock tires

[VJT]

Looking to change JLU stock tires for AT tires but want to have tires ready for snow. Any thought of having both
AT tire and dedicated snow tire or is there one tire to suffice for both application?

You might want to try a set of KO2’s and then have a tire shop swipe them for you. The KO2 is a great tire, and adding the siping”should” make it pretty good on snow/ice.

We live in a ski resort in the mountains and all I run are Falken Wildpeak AT3W's and have never had a problem!

I found KO2’s to work good in Western Washington snow. Not so good in rain though, I have to watch it cornering and accelerating with my manual trans.

Goodyear Duratracs. Best ATs I've used in snow and great for offroading in summer. 3 peak rated.

Any AT tire with 3PMSF rating should be good for your case.
If you do care about some amount of off-road performance, then the following are awesome year round tires with very low tire noise.

- BFG KO2
- Falken Wildpeak AT3W
- General Grabber ATX
- Toyo Open Country AT3
- Cooper Discoverer AT4 XLT
- Goodyear Wrangler Duratrac

My thinking is Yes!, if only because that's what I've already done.

The snow tires are studded, which was a requirement for me. As they're verboten between 16th April - 14th November, I couldn't compromise on an all-terrain tire for year-round use.
