Trail-Terrain T/A TIRE REVIEW

Good, reliable tires

We've had these tires on our Yukon for 3 years, we've put over 100,000km on them. They perform great in all seasons as an everyday tire on our family hauler. They are nice and quiet. We live in Ontario, cold and snowy weather are not an issue. We just ordered our replacement set, going with the same tires.

Good Tires

Just bought today! Seems great so far...smooth road ride Very quiet noise level

The Worst of All Worlds

I have put 12,000 miles on these tires and am not impressed. I bought them because I wanted a tire that had road manners, but were still capable to do some exploring, these do neither well. On paved roads they are awful in the rain. They spin and slide at every stop light. In the snow they are just as bad. Often getting stuck in the typical unplowed parking lot. They were supposedly "designed to resist chipping and tearing on gravel" but it seems gravel is the greatest issue. Two separate tires have gotten punctures this month from nothing more than your typical gravel road. Both punctures split the tire and lost all air in a couple feet stranding me. This is not what would be expected from the "Trail Terrain." I would not recommend these tires to anyone as they are not good in inclement weather, mediocre on pavement and do not offer any advantage on the trail.

Complete shambles - Do not waste your time.

Worst tires ever. Avoid at all costs. The mechanics attempted for two days to install this dross on my truck to no avail. Had to switch to another set of four tires from another manufacturer.

Durability for rough roads and a lot of miles

Living in the mountains on a somewhat rocky dirt road necessitates a solid tire. I recently replaced my 2015 Outback that had 200k miles, with a new, used Outback Wilderness. It came with brand new 3 peak rated tires, but they just looked too much like a tire that lives on paved roads, so I chose to have my fairly used, over 34k mile, Trail-Terrain tires transferred to the new car instead of the brand new tires. The Trail-Terrain tires are looking way better at this milage than previous brands I've had. They have the right amount of off road ability that I need, and have the 3 peak rating, although there is no driving up my steep dirt road when there is snow. They now have 40k miles on them and I am amazed at the longevity compared to others in the class that I've had.

Really Disappointing (winter performance mainly)

After hearing so many good things about BFG tires over the years I decided to get a set of the Trail terrain tires because on paper they were exactly what I wanted in a tire - a more on-road oriented all-terrain tire while still being 3-peak rated and good in the winter. While I am not overly impressed by the dry road performance, I could definitely live with. They definitely aren't the best handling tires but they are capable enough for some light off-roading and are fairly quiet on the road. I also thought that they would have a bit less rolling resistance translating to better fuel economy but that hasn't been the case for me. What I am extremely disappointed by is the winter performance. Over the past week, the roads near me have been snow covered and these tires are just awful in winter conditions. I previously had Falken Wildpeak AT3Ws and last winter with only aroun 40% tread life on them, they were way more predictable and better handling than these. They just don't seem to have enough biting edges side to side because the back end of my truck will just step out mid corner. I also spin far more from a stop than I did with my previous all-terrains. I honestly feel that these should not have a 3-peak rating because are no better in winter conditions than your average all-season tires and that is just not acceptable.

Vibrating buzz not like out of balance

Maybe my problem is that I needed the XL load for extra towing capacity but what is driving me crazy is a like buzz felt in the seat and floor not the steering wheel at all speeds seems to get better at 70+ no complaints on traction and handling had them re check balance road force and they check out ok.

Smooth rolling and very quiet. Increased mileage (mpg: 20.6 w/V8) within first 100 miles.

great features

HORRIBLE

2 front tire are completely shot and I have only put 15,681 miles on them. they have no tread and are showing white metal. The back 2 that i bought at the same time are fine and still in great condition. I have taken the car to the shop to have them checked multiple times and they find nothing wrong.
