7 of the Best AT Tires in the Snow VS All Season & Winter Tires!

Following on from testing these mild all terrain tires in the dry, wet and offroad (watch here: www.tire-reviews.com/Article/2022-Tire-Reviews-All… ) I've taken seven of them through to snow testing, and pitched them against one of the most popular US all season tires, the Michelin Defender LTX MS and one of my favourite winter tires, the Michelin X-Ice Snow.

The full data can be found here: www.tire-reviews.com/Article/2023-Best-All-Terrain…

This will help us answer whether a snow rated (3 Peak mountain snowflake) all terrain really can replace a good all season tire, or even a winter tire in snow.

Unfortunately at time of this test some of the tires from the original test were unavailable. In this test we have:

= Mild AT
Continental Terrain Contact AT
BFGoodrich Trail Terrain TA
Firestone Destination A/T2
Goodyear Wrangler All Terrain Adventure
Pirelli Scorpion All Terrain plus
Toyo Open Country A/T III
Yokohama Geolander AT G015

= Reference
All Season - Michelin Defender LTX MS
Winter - Michelin X-Ice Snow

    That Arnold reference is probably one of the best descriptions of a driving experience I’ve ever heard

    There will be a video including the Nokian OutPost nAT out in a few weeks and something with Falken in the coming months, so don't forget to subscribe and hit the bell icon :D
  • @PreBCFan1
    Thanks so much! I can't say in words how much I appreciate your work and that you accepted this request
  • @rushthezeppelin
    Would love to have seen the Wildpeak AT3W in this. I've loved the performance of these on snow and dry offroad.
  • @Darkcruzer23
    your videos and tests are invaluable. i cant believe you dont have more subscribers. thank you for your work!
  • @Billy123bobzzz
    Perfect timing! I'm going to go make some popcorn then come back and watch this video over and over again, thanks! I'm back! This is excellent and even better than I was going for. You illuminated one of the mysteries that had me baffled (no spoilers, everyone has to watch the video to see what I am talking about) and now I have to rework my explanation of which tires to select for my family and friend's needs. Fantastic job, thank you!
  • @Stratotank3r
    Even I don´t have a SUV or Big Truck nor will i buy one, i love every Tire Review on this channel!
  • @Rnemhrd
    Feel good seeing this. I had Firestone destination AT tires back in the day. I really liked them. Just purchased a set of the AT2s for my Grand Cherokee. Living in central NY snow is a thing.

    Great review with actual road testing on snow covered roads as we do have here in Canada and as others experience too. I have Firestone Destination XT tires and after removing my Michelin Defender LTX MS (all season, not an AT tire if some readers don’t know), I found the XT to be near as quiet as the Michelin and no noticeable fuel penalty plus they’ve been great on highway and gravel roads. Mine have stepped full depth sipes and are 3 Peak rated. A sleeper of a tire. All that said, I am comfortable to use them in winter, especially snow, yet I use a dedicated winter tire (Nokian Hakk LT3 studded = no sense in fooling around with snow and ice)

    Good morning from Northern Ontario. We get a long winter up here and snow often arrives mid to late November. I used to run BFG AT TA tires all year but I didn’t like the traction they had on hard pack and icy roads. To make things safer for me I decided to invest in a second set of rims and I researched tires before I found your site and ordered Nokia Hakkapeliitta Studded winter tires. I have yet to regret my decision. Luckily we get enough cold winter and snow that I’m not wearing down the studs on the tire! I can’t believe the difference between AT and studded winter truck tires. I’ve been recommending this to most of my friends. If you live where you get lots of snow and hard packed snowy roads Nokia Hakkapeliitta studded tires are the way to go. I have already booked my install appointment for late November so I can safely hit the highway and side roads on the way to our annual deer hunt! Love your show. I will be reviewing your feed to see what tire you recommend that could replace the BFG AT TA as my primary spring, summer and fall tire. I really don’t need the aggressiveness or weight of the BFG’s and would like to replace them with a superb load range C tire. My truck is a 2020 F150 4x4 with a 3.5 Eco boost.
  • @johnedwards1685
    On your recommendation I fitted my Skoda Yeti with Crossclimate 2s. I have to say I’m just thrilled with them. Last year’s “Snowmaggedon” just before Christmas was one of the most joyful drives I’ve ever had.
  • @scottm499
    Thanks for your excellent reviews. Recently bought the Trail Terrains and have been happy so far. Looking forward to getting them in the snow soon.
  • @ianvarnson1470
    I sell tires in North Dakota and the BFG Trail Terrain is a popular tire! Although maybe not as capable for off-road traction as the Falken Wildpeak AT3W, they are a quieter tire if you drive a lot of highway. Prices are usually very close on them both, but I have sold a lot of those BFGs and customers are happy with them
  • @dilysi156
    Here I am. Watching content about all terrain tyres in the snow, while I'm living in Belgium with 1cm of snow/year and having nothing else than summer tyres under my car. Not watching for the information, but for the excellent content ✌️ thanks Jonathan
  • @wolfeadventures
    Surprised you didn’t include Falken Wildpeak AT3W. That has massive following.
  • @jiri.palecek
    Best content ever! Could you please add more videos focusing on MT, AT and hybrid tyres. ❤
  • @wownightops
    Great video as always. Hope we can get more winter testing with all terrains. I really want to see the cooper discoverer at3 4s taken around the track.
  • @davidellis1355
    Been waiting for this for ages and you never disappoint, always leave me with more questions. Guess I'm now waiting for a review of more aggressive all terrain tyres and I'll have all the information I'll ever need. Unless you fancy reviewing motorbike tyres 😇
  • @Dmbyers2002
    I really like this video, this is exactly the type of comparison review I’ve been looking for. I know your not making this video for me and my situation, but but doing this comparison with other tires would be awesome. Unfortunately none of these are tires I’m really interested in, aside from the Toyo I wouldn’t say any of these are popular tires in my region. In the area I live in Canada my tire needs might be a bit different than most, I regularly need deep snow performance accessing off highway FSR’s and the backcountry as well as needing good winter road manners. I’m currently running falkens, but duratac’s are kind of the industry standard. Popular mentions are the grabber atx, geolander at xd, bfg at2. Thanks for the video, hope to see more of them.
