Best Tyres for the Chevrolet Silverado 1500

They started out fine, however the amount of road noise has become unbearable after just 60,000kms. They were always rotated on time, but worn poorly and have become extremely noisy to the point where i no longer want to drive my truck. There is still a ton of tread left but the handling and the noise have become unacceptable; new ones have been ordered and these are going in the trash.

an excellent all around tire, great in slush and snow, better on ice than other all weather tires I've driven on. Winter driving on these feels more like a winter tire than an all season, better than some winter tires I've driven with, gives a lot of confidence. Low noise and very comfortable. no changes so far as they have worn, used about 1/4 to 1/3 of the tread so far. Tire feed back through the steering is a bit mushy, but they are on a half ton truck so its more about the comfort than sportiness.

These were the OE tires on my Silverado. They excel in road noise, comfort, and tread wear compared to KO2s that I had on a previous truck as well as performs better in the wet than those. However, they struggle more in mild off road situations, and are noticeably less capable in winter conditions and provide less feedback and steering response compared to the KO2s. These tires perform similar to Dynapro ATMs that I have also had before in most areas but handle slightly better especially in dry cornering. Because I live in the mountains I will not buy these again because I need more winter capability from my tires, however these would be a good choice for warmer climates or truck/SUV owners who do a lot of highway driving.

I chose the P-Metric option for my vehicle because I don't do enough heavy towing or experience many sharp objects for my region with the off-roading conditions I experience to warrant the added weight and stiffness. Brand new these tires gripped dry road and gravel amazingly with minimal road noise. It existed, but it was a fairly quiet low hum/whistle that slowly increased with age and miles. Even when new, wet grip left a slight desire for improvement, same with snow, and especially with ice. I discovered this within the first 3 months/3,000mi of installing.

To be expected with going from a highway tire to an all-terrain, and increasing from 265/65/18 to 275/65/18 (an optional stock size), I found I lost about 3~4mpg on average between city and highway. These tires are significantly heavier than the previous tires and have a strong rolling resistance. My transmission temperature also on average began running 5~10º warmer.

As they have aged, dry grip has stayed fairly consistent, wet grip has decreased somewhat as expected, but snow/ice traction towards the end-of-life has fallen off significantly. I live in the northern Midwest where we frequently get heavy wet lake effect snow, it's a difficult substance to drive in no matter what but these tires struggled in it frequently enough that even additional weight over the drive axle did not do much to help and I utilize 4WD often. On average we end up with snow for roughly 4-5 months, starting as early as October and staying as long as March/April With the occasional exception even in May. Over the course of winter we will often receive daily daytime snow followed by nighttime sub-zero temperatures, as low as -25º. Anyone familiar with these conditions will tell you that salt no longer functions to melt the snow and ice, and that the heat from vehicles will bring the road just to the point of starting to melt, then after they drive off it will refreeze, repeatedly until it's an almost glass-smooth surface. Nothing is going to handle this well except the best snow tires, but these Wildpeaks were significantly worse than a highway biased tired at the same wear mileage.

What I have really noticed with these tires they do not like to be cold. I have seen as much as a 5psi swing from morning startup to mid-day driving. When cold at factory specified PSI I noticed for the first portion of driving that the tires have very noticeable flat spots, so much so my entire truck bounces driving down the road to a rhythm until they can be worked out. I also found over-inflating by 1-2lbs helps this as well as fuel consumption.

Overall I'm pretty disappointed in their performance compared to the glowing reviews they got over the years. If you live in a more arid climate I think these would be a pretty decent tire.

These are my second set of Goodyear Wrangler All-Terrain Adventures (w/ Dupont Kevlar), the first set I had on a 2001 Chevrolet Suburban LT (4x4/Autoride). My dad is also on his second set on his 2005 Toyota Tacoma SR5 (4x4) with 17in wheels from the Tundra/Sequoya. All 3 4x4 vehicles the tires were/are installed on are used primarily on-road in Texas, Oklahoma, Kansas, and Colorado. Annual hunting trips and adventures call for some light duty off-roading on gravel, dirt, grass, and various agricultural fields. Overall, these tire have satisfied us by providing a low road noise and comfortable ride with excellent dry grip and response. On all off-road surfaces mentioned above the tires perform well in dry conditions providing decent grip and confidence. However, I did get stuck on a minimum maintenance road in Kansas after a downpour which turned the road into a greasy mud slip and slide. The mud quickly caked into the tread and reduced my traction significantly. I was pulled out by a tractor... Otherwise, the tires have been excellent for mainly dry climates on all surfaces/terrains. In the rain, on pavement, at a stop light, I do occasionally get a little rear tire slippage on painted lines (crosswalks and intersection marks). This issue can be quickly remedied with the 4-AUTO setting on the Silverado. I have had little issues in snow and ice, however, my driving style changes from spirited to cautious with maybe a touch of fun. I have been able to assist other drivers by pushing/pulling their vehicles out of ditches or deep(ish) snow covered roads with 4-AUTO or 4-HIGH utilized. I have been impressed with these tires. Previous tires to the GYs were the BFG KO2, for reference. Next tire I want to try are the BFG Trail-Terrain T/A for my 2013 Chevy Silverado 1500 LT Z71 (Extended Cab).

Maintenance: 265/65R18 116T, 40 psi (Summer) / 35 psi (Winter), installed Fall of 2021.
Rotated and Balance check every 6k-10k miles.
Treadwear checked 06/2025 at last rotation, 7/32in on all (4) tires, worn even across.
Approximately +40k miles on tires.

QUIET QUIET QUIET! Very Quiet tire for the tread design, snow performance could be better but a great all around tire to towing and daily commuting, Rain performance was fantastic. Off-road performance has been very good as well in sand and gravel with mud holes.

I found the tire had good dry grip on pavement, gripped the road nice on sharp corners with higher speeds and overall quiet ride, however I found for a M&S tire they lacked grip on wet roads. Often found the tire breaking traction when accelerating and sharp corners at speeds of 30km felt like you were driving on ice as traction would break and you would go into a skid. For dry climates this tire would be great but I wouldn’t recommend if there is lots of rain or winter conditions.

In Canada you can find these tires pretty cheap, I was surprised this website lists them Premium. But that is what they are, look good, ride good. Definitely worth the price.

These tires came on my 2023 Chevy ZR2 Silverado. Three days after buying this truck I had to drive 1- hours across the eastern US that finished with a snowstorm that was not predicted. As I was traveling at 50 mph due to conditions, a car spun out on the freeway about 100 yards behind me. I wouldn't have known the roads were this slick because I had plenty of traction and zero issues. Yes, the tires only had 500 miles on them, but this was quite impressive. The Goodyear Territory MT's look essentially like a Duratrac and perform in a very similar manner. These tires are very light at 45 lbs each for this tire size. They provide a comfortable ride on the roads with very good grip in the wet and the dry. They are inexpensive at 265.00 per tire. On an off-road trip in New Hampshire, airing down to 18 psi gave my truck a very low riding height and the soft sidewalls made driving feel very squishy. I had a hard time feeling what the tire was doing, but also where it was tracking. This tire did really well over baby head sized rocks, 3-4 ft ledges, icy trails and 5 ft deep water/mud bogs (trucks with Nitto's spun out in this section). Where this tire failed was in rock gardens where the 2-ply sidewall was no match for the rough granite trails of the Northeast. Fortunately it was cheap to replace. As with the Duratrac's, this tire gets noticeably louder the more miles you put on it. These tires do not come with a mileage warranty, and at 24,000 miles, they are seemingly twice as loud as when I first started driving on them. I had Duratrac's on my 2019 Silverado and switched to the mickey Thompson Baja Boss AT's which were a significant upgrade. For this new truck, the Mickey Thompson's are 26 lbs heavier per tire than these Territory MT's. So the search for a suitable replacement continues...
