Looking for new 35 tires for my new gladiator

[gregf]

I has Nitto Ridge Grapplers on my wrangler and in the rain they were, like driving on ice. Plus to keep the ride soft I had to be at 22psi.
Looking for recommendation . Also looking for a good place to purchase them with rims?.

Also looking for inexpensive bed cover and roll bar, that both work well together .

I like this roll bar, but don't know what it is and what cover works well with it?

BFG KO3's, Toyo Open Country ATIII's, and Falken Wildpeak AT's are the most popular choices. The Nitto's are great for offroad but terrible for wet/snow conditions. The reason is mainly due to the fact there is only one sip on each tread. The others have 2 to 3 so performance is much better.

I run the Wildpeaks on my Jeep and the Open Country's on a smaller vehicle. Both preform phenomenally but I bias towards the Toyo's as they are just a beast of a tire and every tire guy I've talked to agree. But can't go wrong with any of the options I listed first.

I have 35” Mickey Thompson Baja Legend EXP, really great tire. Very smooth on the road and quiet. Performs well in sand, mud and rain.

I love my Falken 35 MT
But the Wildpeaks are better on snow/ice

Toyo AT III or Falken AT/4's as ALT2870 mentioned.

If your after 35x12.5r17's there are a billion (ok ok maybe just a million) options.

I'm mounting 35x11.5r17's this weekend and there are not as many options. Pretty much which ever is in stock and on sale is who I would go with in the 11.5 range. In my case Discount Tire was able to get Falken AT/4's.

I have the Toyo AT3 35*11.5 17's and they have been great in the rain here in Houston.

I am also from LI. I just recently got the Recon Grapplers and haven't has any issues in the rain don't know about snow yet. I have driven on Sore thumb and Demo a few times and handled it like a dream. the Last time at Sore Thumb I forgot to put it in 4WD untill I was leaving.

By far, for the performance and price, Kenda RT2s.
I have 25k hard miles on the ones on my Toyota Hilux and you can hardly tell. I run the AT2s on my Perentie, 50k mile warranty tires and I just put MT2s on my new Gladiator. simpletire.com will sell and ship free. If you have a local dealer, sometimes you can get an even better deal.
I also run there Vezda UHPs on my SLK350.

Toyo Open Country ATIII's - 35x11.5R17. Method 703's. Not too many miles yet, but so far I'm liking the Toyo's.
