Hankook Dynapro AT2 vs Toyo Open Country A/T II — Compared (September 2026)

“The stock Dynapro AT2 tires are awful in the rain We've had our first real rain since spring today here in the PNW, and I've gotta say these stock Hankook tires are the worst tires I've ever driven in the rain. Every single time I turned around a corner, it's a one tire fire on the inside rear. I've driven in the rain here my whole life, in cars with far more power than these Frontiers, and I've never once had the TC light kick on unintentionally when it's raining out. I'm not even flooring it, I baby the hell out of this truck! I looked it up online and looks like I'm not the only one who's noticed this. I can't imagine the performance in the snow is any good if it can hardly handle some rain. As much as I hate to waste a set of new tires, I just can not wait to upgrade to something better. Noodling around the neighborhood at 20mph spinning up the rears is not something I'd like to keep doing. Read more”

“The OEM Hankook AT2 tires on an F150 are really just an overweight LT tire going through a midlife crisis. There are LT tires that likely perform better in all categories combined while being half a dozen or more pounds lighter. They are the epitome of mediocrity, the AT should stand for A ll T ypes of pavement. Soft ride, decent mileage for AT badging don't make up for sloppy wet braking, mid tier handling an allergy to mud traction and lame tread life. I'm down to 6/32 after 50,000km (31,000 miles) of less than spirited driving, they start at 14/32. The tread wear alone makes these tires damn near twice as costly as KO2s to run. They were passable in winter, better than the KO2s which turn into skates when the thermometer drops Solid 5.5/10”

“I replaced my BFGoodrich MT T/A tires on my Wrangler with Hankook AT2 Extreme's, and what a difference. I will say I was consistently getting 50k+ miles out of my MT T/A, doing a 5 tire rotation. I'm 8,000 miles in on the AT2's, and there is zero sign of wear. I do have a bit of wobble in my steering wheel now due to the tires needing a balance and rotation, but other than that, I have been very impressed. My wife's mind was blown that our jeep was so much quieter, and we could have a conversation at highway speed without having to yell over the tire noise. These things are practically silent. The off-road performance is greatly improved. Where the MT's would lose traction on mountain trails, the AT2's keep their grip and keep me moving.”

“I've loved mine on a 2024 Subaru Outback Wilderness. I came from Cooper Discoverer AT3 4S which I loved but that found one too many nails. No issues after 30,000 miles on the Hankooks. I had some Dynapro MT's back on a FJ Cruiser which I loved so that's why I decided to try them again. Just in case someone with an Outback or someone looking at these sizes, here's some data I had compiled. 235/65R17 Hankook Dynapro AT2 Extreme RF12 - Overall Diameter 29.1”, Section Width 9.6”, Tread Width 7.5” , Weight 32 lbs 245/65R17 Hankook Dynapro AT2 Extreme RF12 - Overall Diameter 29.6”, Section Width 10”, Tread Width 7.9” , Weight 35 lbs”
