We replaced the originals on our 99 with Goodyear Fortera. Increadibly quiet compared to the originals. We don't off road much but the tires are great.

ya i tink im looking for somthing more agressive but not so agressive that i will have to start replacing axles and things but i will be more daily driver than an off road vehicle im in high school and i will be driving back and forth about 10-15 miles per day going where ever so i need somthing that will look good and wear good also

I'm partial to the General Grabber series. I used the Grabber AP's because I knew I was going to spend a lot of time on paved roads, and wanted a tire that worked well on snow and the occasional dirt road foray. The AP's were perfect. General has more aggressive Grabber lines, you may want to give those a look, see what fits your anticipated needs. Generals can be hard to find, but Discount Tire outlets usually can order them for you.

Mileage on the Generals is pretty good, too.

Right now I'm running some Les Schwab sourced tires, I think Open Country or something similar, that my sister got installed while I was stationed overseas. She says they wrok good in the snow, have no off road experience with them myself. I do like the Les Scwab service, though. Free puncture repair at any outlet, and they always patch, never plug. Plus if you get spiked tires or something through them, they will swap em out and back to normal for free.

REVOS are okay ....500 long threadwear, big juicy threads. good on pavement. go look at the pics on tirerack

My street tires are 35x12.50 BFG A/Ts. They are fairly quiet, smooth and I have put 40k on them and they have worn but just barely started to fray and break up on the treads.

My off road tires are 37x13 Eagle Superswampers. They have huge treads that work great on mud, water, and sand but I slide around easily on rocks. On the road I would have to be an idiot to run them for very long, they are rough, loud, and I get pulled over everytime I have them on.

the best "on road" tires used as a "daily commuter" andwith very good off road traction i'd choose the michelin cross terrain. pricey, but you'll save w/ rolling resistance and fuel ecomomy and keep hearing that there worth EVERY SINGLE PENNY.I just keep hearing rave reviews about these tires.

RE: best tires
 

I have fairly new Michelin LTX on my 94 4x4 4Runner. Pretty noisy. I had the Cross Terrains on my old ML320. Much quieter. I would try the Yokohama HT/S above anything else though. If you don't like those, we can work out a deal.

If you are going with a OEM size tire - I agree with 4bummer...... the Bridgestone Revo's worked very well on my old Passport. I didn't need to engage the 4-wheel drive in most of the snow conditions I encountered without losing grip.SometimesI wish they slippedsome to make it a little fun...hahaha. They incorporate great wet technology with outstanding everyday grip/cornering for a tall SUV tire. They were very quiet for the aggresive tread pattern too, even over the life....which is the real key. Great reviews on tire rack as well. You may sacrifice some wear compared to some harder compound tires, but with the responsivness on/off road you'd probably be happyeven if they wore quicker. Keep them rotated.....whatever you buy. Can't really gowrong with Michelins either. You pretty much get what you pay for. Most places will price match tire rack's price (plus 15 bucks per tire to cover additional shipping charges). Good luck.

im on 33s Pro Comps, ATs. They are a nice daily driver tire, very quiet too..

Mine doesn't get off-road very often...so I went to SimpleTire.com and got a set of Michelin Pilot Alpins. I really like em a lot. Great all-season tire, quiet, good road manners.

To me, Terra Grapplers are one of the best all around tires. Good traction on and off the road.

I've got about 20k on a set of 265/70/16s. They are very quite & smooth on the highway Yet can do some any offroad situation a stock 3rd gen 4runner can do including moderate mudding, hence the ATM (all terrain & mud). Never gotten stuck, they just keep plowing ahead. They clean themselves on the go in the mud, wear very well and best of all, look beefy as they come about 7% wider than a normal 265s and also have 6 plies so cactus isn't much of an issue. About $600 installed. You will like them. :)

The T800 depicted would be a good choice. Tow pin/clevis at front, just need a connector rig(of your own) to the pulling unit, good ground clearance to the fuel system and batteries/steps. 18 spd is a bit overkill but useful as is the 4 way lockup, that is two differential locks and a power divider lock. HP is a bit hefty but you don't have to use all of it and the 16 k front with 46k rears is a good choice for stability and weight bearing.

General Grabber series would be my suggestion it has some off road capabilities.

Pro Comp has some A/T Sport tires that are pretty aggressive for off-road but still appropriate for daily use. If you look online you can usually find some good deals on tire packages.
