Chevrolet silverado 1500 Tyre Review Highlights

Writing about the Cooper Discoverer Road Trail AT given 91% (265-70-17-)
Driving on a combination of roads for 3000 average miles
I'm driving a 98 K1500 Z71 with a single cab and a full size box with 4x4. Using rims from a 2011 instead of the 16in OEM rims, but tire size is basically the same with a little bit less positive offset.

First, these tires replaced the Cooper AT3s that were on the market right before the AT3 4S replaced them. I'll talk a little about those tires. The original tires were trash in 2wd. The first time driving them home in the dry and the truck moved left and right on it's own and needed constant correction until the AT tires broke in on the side lugs (wore down enough). Then it was straight shooting. In the snow I had to use 4wd or I'd be SOL. That said I did have a time when snow dumped on me while driving and I needed to stop on a hill and get going again in 2wd and it did it with a light pedal input - though I didn't feel confident in it. If I tried stopping in 2wd in the snow I would slide like crazy and blow into an intersection. Getting going in 2wd was terrible. Sometimes I'd need 4wd just to get out of a turn lane and then I'm stuck in 4wd on the clean hwy. If I had it in 4wd, then I was golden in these old tires. Drove 50-60 in the snow and it was a bull tearing through anything I had in front of it. In the wet they were great - drove 70 tailing a semi as we flew by everyone else going 50 in a huge rainstorm.

Now to these tires. Amazing, period! Right out the gate they were true and centered - no corrections needed. They felt very much like the Crossclimate2s I have on another vehicle in the wet/dry. In the rain they feel confident. They basically improved all aspects of the generation that I had prior to these (I think it's My Original AT3s - The 4S - Then these Road and Trails). Finally have been able to take them into snow. Wow. I drove a distance of 70 miles in about an inch to 2 inch of snow where one lane was covered and one was decently open in 2wd. I never would have tried that in this truck before. I had a car trying to pass me in the snow-covered lane and they were spinning their wheels. I hit it down from 60 to 65 to get away from them and then slowed back to 60. They had to pull in behind me again. And I was just sitting there in 2wd with no issues getting going. If the snow had been heavy I would for sure get it in 4wd, but I'm really impressed for it not being a snow tire. Getting going in 2wd with a snow-covered road is no problem and stopping on one going 35 feels like I'm just on dry pavement and I hit the brakes hard to test this. I've never felt that before in a truck like this. I'm really waiting on a snowstorm to test the 4wd better, but if they're this good in 2wd then 4wd will be crazy good. The biggest issue for a vehicle like mine that doesn't have auto-4wd is that you have to decide when 2wd is safe/you won't get stuck in uncleared turn lanes. These tires have fixed that problem for me and I can run them in the summer, which I need to here and there.

Also, WHITE LETTERING!

Writing about the Continental TerrainContact AT given 79% (275-55-20-)
Driving on a combination of roads for 25000 average miles
Continental Terrain Contact AT is a great performing tire on my Silverado. The highlights are incredible wet traction grip and hydroplane resistance, quiet, good handling, decent ride quality. I am so impressed with the wet grip because I rarely see traction control come on with these Continentals. So much better than other tires I've used. I have also driven on loose dirt and gravel without issue. My only complaint about the Continental Terrain Contact AT is tread life but that may not totally be the tires fault. When I had the tires put on I also replaced the shocks. The alignment was off and chewed up some tire life. However, after getting an alignment I am seeing 1/32 of rubber consumed after 5,000 miles so these would not have hit the mileage rating anyway.

Driving on mostly country roads for 72 average miles
These came on my new 2020 Silverado . I now have 72,000 miles on them , still some tread . They are quiet tires and very smooth . They are very good in the rain . Good in the snow . This is my first pickup in many years and can't believe how well these tires have performed . Secure .

Writing about the BFGoodrich All Terrain TA KO3 given 88% (275-65-18-)
Driving on mostly country roads for 1000 spirited miles
Much better than the factory Goodyear Duratrac regarding road noise and road comfort. The dry grip is better on roads. Has not rained enough here since I got them to provide a comprehensive review of wet traction but the one or two times they performed well. We will see what this winter brings regarding ice and snow traction. Hopefully I will be able this review after I get firewood on rough muddy / snow mountain forest service roads and after I drive it on our very icy winter roads. Here in Wyoming the DOT uses a sand, gravel mix with a little bit of salt because salt doesn't work below zero. Hopefully this tires increased silica content and siping will perform as well as my old KO2's.

Writing about the Continental VikingContact 7 given 88% (275-55-20-)
Driving on mostly motorways for 8000 average miles
Have had these on my truck for 2 years now. Amazingly quiet, great ice/dry grip. No issues with wet grip at all so far. Only thing to note is tire wear. If you have a decent amount of dry/warmer driving these will wear (like any good winter tire) quite quick. Having to have winter tired on from Oct 1 to Apr 30 in the parts of BC i travel through yearly means i do a decent amount of dry/warmish driving. In 2 seasons i have lost 3-3.5/32nds of tread depth out of a starting 10/32nds. Also note my truck is quite heavy and that can only add to the wear (curb weight of 5300 lbs).

Driving on a combination of roads for 15000 average miles
Have had these on a full size Chevy Silverado 4x4 for about 2 years. Excellent overall tire. Can't really comment on snow and ice since I'm in an area where we rarely get snow, but no issues in rain, mud, sand, gravel. Biggest advantage is they ride smooth and quiet on freeway

Writing about the Nokian WR G4 SUV given 99% (275-55-20-)
Driving on mostly motorways for 45 spirited miles
One my third set - drive 1500 Silverado's - mostly highway driving, some-offroad, some light trailer towing - long distance. Excellent tire. Last set lasted 45,000 mile - but the centerpede tread wore away outer treads are fine - look new. Trying to locate another set, but they are out of stock everywhere. Too bad for me.

Writing about the Bridgestone Alenza AS Ultra given 85% (285-45-22-)
Driving on mostly country roads for 1000 spirited miles
I have only had these tires for about 1000 miles of winter driving. They are on a 2020 Chevy Silverado High Country 6.2L. I have been running the Alenza for close to 20 years on Chevy trucks, but this one came with something else which I was not happy with. When one got damaged, the dealer told me I could get the new Alenza AS Ultra. I thought about it for a minute and then scraped the old ones. I got a better ride and better performance on ice and snow. I called the dealer and thanked him for the recommendation...it was a one way trip for me! I'm hoping that the tread life is similar to my past experience, which as been 45K to 50K on the two 5.3L Avalanches.

Driving on mostly country roads for 8000 average miles
I have these on my 2012 Chevrolet Silverado Z71 Crew Cab 4wd. I'm know a lot of people think "why snow tires on a 4wd?" Because 5,600 lbs! That's why! I got them for stability and braking control. Sure, getting up to speed is easy enough but I'd rather have the ability to stay on the road and stop. These tires do a remarkable job. They are a little noisy on slightly wet and dry pavement but not unbearable. For the price they're hard to beat (~$150 ea at the time of this review, 11/2021). I've had them for exactly one year (one season) and I was literally anxious to have them reinstalled before the first snowfall. They added so much more stability to my truck, even with the StabiliTrak garbage GM put on the truck. I'd highly recommend these as a great budget winter/snow tire!

Writing about the Kelly Edge AT given 79% (165-75-16-)
Driving on mostly country roads for 5000 average miles
1997 Chevrolet K1500 (Silverado) Z71 four-wheel drive. The tires perform very well and offer good traction on gravel and dirt. I'm not an extreme off-roader, but for what I've thrown at them I have been satisfied with the performance. In the winter time they performed better than I expected and maintained decent traction in deep snow and ice. And using four-wheel drive, I feel safe driving in extreme snowy conditions. The only thing better would be snow tires of course, but I was satisfied with the performance of these tires. On the dry highway I expected the tires to be noisy and rough, as most off-road type tires are on pavement. But nope, the noise levels were in the lower range and handling is great. I would say that these do almost as good as a BF Goodrich KO2 and would expect the next level up tire from Kelly (the Kelly Safari) to be on par with the KO2. For a more budget-friendly off road tire, I would recommend purchasing the Edge A/T. The only downside would be that they do seem to be wearing slightly faster than what I would normally expect, but I do believe that they will last at least 40,000 miles.
