Most dry traction scores range 8-10, highlighting responsive handling and secure highway grip. While some ratings dip to 4-6, the majority praise confident dry performance ideal for all-season use.

This tire has supreme wet traction and dry traction as well...
This tire has supreme wet traction and dry traction as well.Beside that i was amazed how good those tires were on on light snow.I did drive all winter season without any traction problems.Being in construction business and getting to the job cite a do drive on unpaved road a lot.Never got stuck in a mud.Have used a lot of different brands and models before.
These are the tires i will definitely be using on my cargo van again and again.

...Cornering is excellent (for a truck)...
Since replacing the stock Firestone Wilderness AT's I have been extremely happy with this tire! My biggest complaint about the firestones was that they wander all over the road on the highway. The Goodyear Wrangler HT's DO NOT WANDER. Cornering is excellent (for a truck). Noise also dropped when replacing the firestones. Ride may be stiffer. My original priorities in selecting a tire was highway/on-road performance but I have been pleasantly surprised with this tire in offroad situations. In the snow I popped into 4x4 and went up an icy driveway where other 4x4's were slipping. Pulls the horse trailer out of the mud just fine. At 40000 miles I still have lots of tread life left (I rotate them religiously). I will definately buy this tire again- Good job goodyear!

...They seem grippy enough on dry pavement when I have had to stop fairly quick on I-5... They have performed adequately on dry pavement while having boost speed and still have control when someone is speeding on side streets avoiding them t-boning me...
I cannot tell you how long my vehicle has had these tires on it. I bought it with 55K GSA sale. I believe it was an unmarked federal postal detective vehicle. A coupe SE 4x4 model. It came with them on it at 55K miles. It now has 64K. They don't seem to wear much although I should rotate them. They are dated at 0908 of manufacture and are labeled LT215-75-15 the stock size. I think the 4.0 Liter straight 6 in this size can lay plenty of torque to them. That alone could be a problem in the rain. They seem grippy enough on dry pavement when I have had to stop fairly quick on I-5. It has abs brakes but I believe you can still lock them up. Have replaced the brakes since then but I have considered changing tires due to their performance in wet weather. They are not as bad as the light rear end on my a Ford Ranger I owned and with worn goodyear futeras? They may not perform as well on a heavier 1/2ton truck but LT215 normally means cargo carrying of metric size? They have performed adequately on dry pavement while having boost speed and still have control when someone is speeding on side streets avoiding them t-boning me. I too thought OEM which it may have come with but the Jeep Cherokee SE 4x4 was manufactured in 99 and the tires say the 9th week of 08 so the postal service undoubtedly put new tires on it after 9 years.
What I feel is the tread has lasted well on this size of vehicle and might be worse if I did burnouts like youth. I feel it is a little weak in the traction area on wet roads. Not always fair assessment due to oil and dirt on roads with no rain or leaking vehicles. However it rains here 5-6 months . But little tread wear and could still see the mold spikes years later but I would like better rain traction. No snow or ice experience but am a bit doubtful of performance due to age too. Tires get old just sitting installed in the elements? 5 years? I must say they seem to have amazing wear characteristics on dry pavement.

Most customers rate the Goodyear Wrangler HT's comfort highly, with many scoring 9s and 10s for smooth ride and low noise. While a few report lower scores, the majority praise its refined highway performance in all-season conditions.

These were OE tires. Ive been very happy with the ride and comfort in dry and wet conditions. I tow 5,000lbs of boat. Great traction at the launch ramp. Also appreciate the quiet ride. Just wish I could get more than the 2400 miles of treadwear. Its time for new tires.

Most customers rate treadwear 9-10, praising long-lasting highway performance. While some scores dip lower, the majority highlight excellent durability for all-season driving, aligning with its intended use.

After 68,000 miles of use, much of it towing 12,000 pound trailers, these tires still have significant tread left.
Compared to other tires I have used on this vehicle, the Goodyear HT are superior in dry traction, handling, and treadwear, none of which I expected from an OEM tire.

Wet traction receives mixed scores (0-6), with reports of hydroplaning and sliding. Customers express dissatisfaction, citing mediocre performance in all-season conditions.

...Honestly, it makes a person scared to drive in any kind of wet weather!...
These are the worst tires I have EVER owned. Came with the truck and honestly, it makes a person scared to drive in any kind of wet weather! Not only would I not buy a set of these again, I will NEVER buy Goodyear again!!

...Even driving very carefully I have had several heart-stopping moments in the rain with these tires even at very low speeds (I kid you not - even at 10 MPH I have found myself wondering if the van was going to stop). These tires are very dangerous in my opinion and are coming off my van even though they still have 75% of the tread left.
Although acceptable in dry conditions, these tires are simply horrible in the wet.

...These have been a little spinny when accelerating from a complete stop in the rain, but once on the road are still reliable...
Goodyear Wrangler Fortitude HT 265 70 17 115T is the OEM tire my F150 came with and it's served me well. I'm at 78000 and looking at new tires now. These have been a little spinny when accelerating from a complete stop in the rain, but once on the road are still reliable. I get decent mileage with them, but better in the summer. They have handled dirt roads well and have not failed me in winter or on ice.
The only other tires I have owned are Goodyear Wrangler somethings and Michelin LTX M/S, and both of those were on an older but otherwise identical truck. I like both, but for slightly different reasons, and it's a battle for me to pick one over the other.

Winter traction ratings for the Wrangler HT are concerning, with many scores between 0-6. Customers report slippery in snow, lack of winter traction, and getting stuck, indicating unacceptable performance for an all-season tire.

...I can tell you from experience that the H/T lasts a long time and does well in most areas ( not impressed by snow/ice performance but no complaints in dry/wet)...
To everyone reading the reviews on the Wrangler H/T tire: a lot of these reviews are bogus. People on here list having them as OEM on their Honda Element for instance, but those never had the H/T as OEM, in fact they don't make the H/T in the OEM size at all.
Those reviews should've been placed with the Wrangler H/P, which is a completely different tire, a sport truck tire vs the H/T being a heavy-duty tire made for HD pickups and vans. So all these reviews saying they got 40k miles on their OEM tires, those would be the H/P, not the H/T. I can tell you from experience that the H/T lasts a long time and does well in most areas (not impressed by snow/ice performance but no complaints in dry/wet).
Same with Ram 1500 reviews, those got the H/P as standard, maybe the Wrangler SR-A but the H/T has never been an OEM tire, especially in the load range E rating.
