Looking at 2 tires in about the same price range for on road/off road use on rocky 2 tracks in and around Wyoming/Idaho/Montana (Yellowstone area).
Kumho AT51 or Hankook Dynapro AT-M. Ran Cooper A/Tx for several years, but just wasn't terribly impressed over all. Ran the Hankook's on my last XJ and loved them, but always willing to upgrade for a good reason.
I need something that is good in snow and ice but doesn't suck the rest of the year. Have been reading some good reviews on other sites for the AT51's and the local tire store raves about their better grip on ice, they have a good mileage rating as well. And they are priced right.
Anyone with personal experience, I'd love to hear from you!
Also, local tire shop offers siping on new tires and the owner has been doing that for 40 years. Any benefit to siping on general purpose use tires?
Finally, any benefit to going from C to E load rating in durability?
Thanks!
Brian
