2024’s Best Tires for Ultimate Performance and Comfort

Tires for the Roads Yet Untaken

 It’s time once again for BRONCO’s annual wheel and tire buyers guide! This year, the rubber for your ride features the latest technology—and some will make your head turn! Take a look at our top picks for 2024 and beyond!

 01/ Mickey Thompson/ Baja Boss A/T

The Baja Boss A/T is designed to deliver premium on-road handling, performance, and tread wear while dominating in the mud and snow thanks to its pioneering asymmetric tread design, silica-reinforced compound, extreme Sidebiters, and revolutionary PowerPly XD three-ply construction. Featuring a 50,000-mile tread-wear warranty and 3PMS designation, it’s Mickey Thompson’s most innovative hybrid A/T to date—aggressive looks, low noise, long-lasting tread, and smooth ride.

 02/ Nitto/ Trail Grappler

The Trail Grappler M/T provides an aggressive mud tread design with on-road quiet ride performance. The three-ply sidewall and thick rubber construction increase puncture resistance. Leading edge tread and side lug blocks provide additional biting edges that command lateral stability and enhance forward traction. Each Grappler has two sidewall designs so you can choose how your tires look. On the Trail Grappler, one side has stylized lettering with V-shaped sidewall lugs, and the other has traditional lettering with flat buttresses. A common complaint with mud terrain tires is their noise level. Nitto’s engineers set out to design an aggressive yet quiet off-road tire. Using 3D computer simulation, Nitto’s engineers were able to systematically adjust the size, shape, and position of the tread blocks. As a result, Nitto produced an off-road tire that is 34% quieter at street speeds and 36% quieter at highway speeds.

 03/ Toyo/ Open Country A/T III

The Open Country A/T III all-terrain tire delivers gripping off-road traction with responsive and predictable on-road handling. With a strong focus on wet performance, durability, and treadwear life, and using Toyo’s proprietary T-mode tire development and modeling technologies, Toyo introduces advanced tread design, construction, and compounding. The Open Country A/T III provides a quiet ride with exceptional stability, instilling driving confidence no matter the terrain. Built tough, it offers peace of mind to safely get there and back home, regardless of terrain or weather. With a treadwear warranty of up to 65,000 miles, outdoor adventurers can rely on the Open Country A/T III for the long haul.

 04/ Toyo/ Open Country R/T and R/T Trail

Off-road performance meets on-road comfort with the Open Country R/T and R/T Trail. Built rugged for any terrain, these powerful 4×4 tires offers excellent off-road traction, durable construction, and aggressive styling. Their ability to tackle dirt, sand, and rocks is inspired by the legendary Open Country M/T, while its quieter ride is a nod to Toyo’s best-selling Open Country A/Ts.

  05/ Falken/ Wildpeak A/T4W

From backcountry trails to the open road, the all-new Wildpeak A/T4W is built to help you tackle any terrain. Featuring staggered shoulder blocks, and proprietary three-ply DURASPEC sidewall technology on select sizes, the A/T4W provides all-terrain confidence and rugged durability. Updated heat diffuser technology, tread rigidity, and the addition of heavy duty sizes ensure the A/T4W delivers improved towing capability compared to its predecessor. The severe-snow-rated A/T4W was engineered to perform in harsh winter conditions, with full-depth sipes providing traction for the life of the tire. Offering up to a 65,000-mile limited tread life warranty (60,000-mile for LT sizes) and Road Hazard Protection, Falken’s best just got better. Command any road and every adventure with the Wildpeak A/T4W.

 06/ Falken/ Wildpeak R/T

Developed for lifted trucks, SUVs, and high-powered diesel pickups, the Falken WILDPEAK R/T sets a new standard for the rugged terrain tire category. Featuring the ultimate hybrid terrain tread pattern, the WILDPEAK R/T provides the tenacious off-road traction of an M/T while retaining the tread life and stability expected from an A/T. Built to deliver an ideal combination of traction, durability, and longevity, the Wildpeak R/T is the tire of choice for those who spend as much time on the road as they do on the rocks. As such, the WILDPEAK R/T carries a 50,000-mile limited tread life warranty, because a tire built to conquer any terrain shouldn’t let you down on the open road. Whether you’re towing, hauling, working, or crawling, modern heavy-duty pickups need tires designed to work hard. Get the job done with the WILDPEAK R/T.
