New to the forum here as I just picked up a new (to me) 13' Ram 1500. 5.7 Hemi with a 3.92 rear end. So far I'm loving the truck, but looking at upgrading the tires on it. Current Wrangler SRAs are like running slicks on anything but dry pavement. I live in the Chicago area so wet/snow/ice traction is very important. Come fall it'll see some off-road mud and 2-tracks for hunting, but still want good road manners. I'll tow a 20' boat a couple times a year is all so I don't think I need anything more than a standard passenger load tire. I'll be getting them at Discount Tire and have narrowed it down to 3.
-Goodyear Wrangler Ultraterrain ATs - $220/tire
-Falken AT3s - $200/tire
-Cooper AT3 4S - $200/tire
I'm torn on all 3. I like the looks and more aggressive tread of the Goodyear, the Falkens seem to be loved on here, and the Coopers seem to be getting great reviews and have the best mileage warranty. Are the Wranglers worth the extra $80/set over the others? Are the Falkens the right in between tire, or go with the Coopers that won SEMA?
TIA
