New Tire Time, What's Good These Days?

[Old-Raptor-guy]

Got the Yoko g015’s on and they are very quiet. A lot quieter than bfg’s . It changes the driving experience a lot.

Would you please come out west so we can test in some great off road experiences.

So just commuted in the rain…
Very quiet white noise at 80mph on highway. If you do less than 10-15 % off road a tear and live in a snowy area get these. Wet traction better than bfg and also handles a bit more nimble.

I like those they just look like street tires to me though... which is why I went with the coopers.

That's my thought as well. Looks like something I would have on a FX4 for a street tire, but not sure it fits the "look" I want on the Raptor. I'm sure it's an excellent tire.

They are (almost) ALL quiet at first

i hated mine, couldnt them off faster, were decent in the rain though. Quiet and prob a good hwy tire, but man i felt every bump and offroad was a bounce house.

20k on my coopers and still really quiet. Only noise i hear is right after rotating and it goes away shortly.

Oh I agree, perhaps not an aesthetic choice… This rig is on fam duty as of right now (road trips snowboarding trips etc). If I wanted something aggressive amd louder i would have wound up with stock bfg or Recon Crapplers…

Believe me i know. I’ve ran so many different types of AT and mud terrains over the years. As I age I grow weary of the choppy drones of post 15k mud/AT tires. This is the first quiet cab ive had in years…

I was going to go with coopers but then I read about their compound getting very non compliant in freezing temps and wanted something with 3PMs. 280 a piece out the door after rebate mounted was a tie breaker…

I get it, I don't deal with snow ever so not needed...
