    All terrain tires are stupid. Worked at a gmc dealer, hand brand new trucks id drive around with all terrain tires. You could literally feel every piece of tread and the truck bouncing and rocking at 2mph from the stupid, ugly, terrible tread on all terrain tires. They are extremely loud, and even suck in the snow. Highway tires are wayyy better for pretty much anything. Only thing all terrain are good for is puncture resistance I guess. Look at highway terrain symectrical treads and compare it to some dumbass all terrain tread. Its so obvious. Why the hell do people drive around town and the highway with such god awfully designed tread, it looks like you would just immediately start hydroplaning.

    I have cheap ass pathfinder highway terrains and never got stuck or punctured in the rocky mountains. And guess what? I can drive in snow, slush, and rain with confidence because my tread is actually designed to jet water and grip

    stock tires are even dumber. they sell us a 60k 4x4 truck and spec it out with tires that belong on a sedan.

    Might as well be a duck and a pigeon arguing about whether webbed feet or talons are better.

    In any case, I’ve never met a stupid tire. People on the other hand…

    I voted for all 4 in the poll.

    I agree with xtyfighterx

    Maybe the OP is talking about MUD TERRAIN tires? No way in he11 "You could literally feel every piece of tread and the truck bouncing and rocking at 2mph from the stupid, ugly, terrible tread on all terrain tires".
    Either dude has been hitting the wrong vape all day, or he's just trying to troll us.
