From owners

Pros, cons & observations

Themes extracted from owner reviews across retailers and review sites — not the opinion of TireWheelGuide.

Tire A Dunlop Grandtrek A/T3

The Dunlop Grandtrek A/T3 is generally regarded as a capable and reliable all-terrain tire that balances on-road comfort with off-road durability. Users frequently praise its significant improvement in traction over factory-fitted tires and appreciate its surprisingly quiet performance for an A/T tread pattern.

Pros

  • Excellent on-road grip and handling stability
  • Quiet operation compared to typical all-terrain competitors
  • Robust construction with reinforced sidewalls
  • Significant improvement in wet weather traction over standard tires

Cons

  • Reduced grip on specific surfaces like smooth, wet cement
  • Increased road noise as the tread wears down
  • Limited performance in extreme off-road conditions

Observations

  • Users fitting these to mid-size SUVs like the BMW X3 report success in finding a tougher, more versatile tire for occasional off-road use without sacrificing daily drivability.
  • Owners of heavier utility vehicles like the Isuzu Trooper note that the reinforced sidewalls provide good steering feedback and comfort.
Tire B Toyo Proxes ST

The Toyo Proxes ST series is widely regarded as a high-value, performance-oriented tire that excels in dry and wet road conditions while offering a quiet, comfortable ride. While most users praise its longevity and aggressive aesthetic, a minority of owners report inconsistent experiences regarding road noise and wet-weather hydroplaning resistance.

Pros

  • Excellent dry and wet road handling
  • High value-to-price ratio
  • Low road noise and high ride comfort
  • Impressive tread life and durability
  • Aggressive, attractive tread design

Cons

  • Inconsistent performance in deep or heavy snow
  • Occasional reports of increased road noise at high speeds
  • Some users noted hydroplaning tendencies in standing water
  • Variable tread life experiences depending on vehicle weight and driving style

Observations

  • Owners of heavy SUVs like the BMW X5 and Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT frequently report significant improvements in ride quality and noise reduction when replacing factory run-flat tires with the Proxes ST.
  • Users with high-torque trucks and performance SUVs noted that the tire provides superior grip during hard launches and cornering compared to all-terrain alternatives.
  • Drivers using low-profile sizes (e.g., 24-inch wheels) noted a firmer, sometimes rougher ride, which is attributed to the tire's sport-oriented construction.

How do we compare tires?

Every category score blends two independent signals. 60% comes from professional tire tests (braking distances, lap times, noise measurements) normalized against the best tire in each test and weighted toward recent tests. 40% comes from thousands of owner reviews collected from retailers and review sites. When a tire has only one of the two, we use what exists and say so.

Community buzz from Reddit and forums is shown for context only — it never changes the score.
