My tires are 10 years old and dry rotting.
What would you suggest?

I use my XJ for short errands all year round.
Highway commute to work once a week.

It is also my primary vehicle to drive in winter slop.
I do not want dedicated snow tires, just an all round tire.

What size you running now?

I'd say a good all-terrain tire would do you. To date the best I've ever run on and off road has been the General Grabber AT2. I run all varieties of roads from goat paths to interstates. It comes in both P and LT designations. I've run the LT235/75-15.

Bfg ko2 and Goodyear duratracs are excellent all terrains, but a tad expensive.... both are snowflake rated as well. Grabbers are great to as mentioned.

In an oversized tire - Grabber AT2's were great to me in Colorado (all year wheeling, snowy roads, and long haul driving in the summer)

For a stock sized "winter biased" all-season, I would look at the Nokian WRG3. Alot of my friends run them and while they aren't as good as a Blizzak or one of their true snow tires, for Colorado which doesnt really get that much snow the WRG3 is a perfect match while balancing treadwear

They seem to last about 30-35K miles, but if you get lucky and can run them low through the summer months you wont "waste" tread by ditching them early for the winter months (if that makes sense)

What kinda snow tho,Its different if you get a dusting or feet of snow to be honest.

Should have mentioned, this is 100% street.
I do not go off road.
All terrains seem inappropriate.

Light snow. Few inches at most.
Typical suburban stuff.

Soooo...you don't want dedicated snow tires...you don't want all-terrains....driving on 10 year old rotted tires...looks like you're gonna be riding on the rims at some point then.

Your description of your driving type is the exact definition of an all terrain. An overall tire that can handle the street, rain, light snow, mud, or ice.

Buy a set of Duratracs, and be done. Do it soon. If your tires look anything like your undercarriage, you're rolling on ticking time bombs.

Get these. You will love them for your application. My brother had them in Mass and was thrilled with the year round performance.

I wouldn't suggest Duratracs if he is going to be 100% on the street. Its a waste of a damn good AT tire in my opinion.

Actually, I don't think an AT tire is really even what he would want on a 100% street vehicle. Get pretty much any "snowflake" rated all-season and drive carefully like everyone else when it snows. Doesn't sound like he lives in an area with "extreme" winters anyway

Get the Kumhos. I've had them on 3 Jeeps and they are awesome summer, snow, and wet streets.

Ok, another friend suggested I get Yokohama GEOLANDAR (Highway All-Season).

The Kuhmo's look way cooler!
Let me see what he says.

Forget the friend and get the Kumhos.

My 97 did just fine with Goodyear Wrangler Radials (Highway All-Season) last year. Nothing fancy, but for a daily driver that never goes off-road, but does see snow, they did quite well. Even if was only 1" or less. Some dry, some wet and slushy. Then again i dont drive like a madman as some 4x4 drivers do when weather gets nasty.

The Kuhmo Road Venture AT51 however do have a better overall rating than the Goodyears i have. If i were to go with the Kuhmo Road Venture AT51 or Geolandar H/T G056 posted above, id go with the Kuhmos. Those Geos look like they belong on a minivan, not a Jeep.

Kumhos for Bimmer. Keep it simple.

IMHO I've never seen much need for all season tires on an suv or truck when A/T's do better under all conditions.
