Hello Everyone,
About to make my first "truck" tire purchase and I am feeling a bit overwhelmed with all the choices..
Here is my situation:
I drive my 4Runner once or twice a week for short distances. Since I live in the city I can take public transport so it is not my daily driver. However, I take frequent trips out of Houston to visit Austin/San Antonio and any trips to go off-roading or overlanding would be a minimum 4 hours away.
Because of this I need something that will not absolutely destroy my gas mileage or road manners (noise especially). I currently have some mild 31x10.50 Goodyear AT tires. The truck had them on it when I purchased it about 2 months ago. They worked fine on a recent trip to an OHV park, but are fairly worn and are starting to crack on the sidewalls due to age. Looking to purchase within the next month.
So to summarize:
-Will be used to drive long distances on highway
-Decent road manners (noise, driving in the wet)
-Still has to perform off road (otherwise what's the point!)
Anyone had a set of tires that they absolutely loved that I should consider? Any advice and pros/cons of your current setup are appreciated.
