ORH,My preference for your described usage is again the Wildpeaks. They have an extremely chip resistant compound and very well lugged sidewalls. They are almost a hybrid between an AT and an MT tire. I have run them over volcanic glass strewn trails, shale, pummice and granite and they have never let me down. They are tough, they wear well, and they are quiet....
Hope that helps.
Thank you, indeed it does. I tore a sidewall on a KO2 last year, will look into that aspect of the Wildpeaks next. I just may have found my next set of tires. Plus I see that the Wildpeak is available in a 285/75/17, that size tire should not need a spacer when mounted with the Van Compass 2” lift.....
BTW, thank you for your excellent write up on the Van Compass suspension upgrade. I am in complete agreement, it transformed the van.
