I’m looking for some advice on the best tires to get for my 2017 Chevy Silverado 1500. I want something that enhances performance, safety, and comfort while driving. Here are a few points I’m considering:

Key Considerations:

  • Tire Type: Should I go for all-terrain, all-season, or a specific type?
  • Durability: Which brands tend to last longer?
  • Driving Conditions: I’ll be driving on highways and off-road occasionally; what do you recommend?
  • Size Specifications: What’s the correct size I should be looking for?

Specific Brands or Models:

  • If you have specific brands or tire models that you’ve had a good experience with, I’d love to hear about them.
  • Are there any that you would definitely avoid?

I’m open to suggestions and would really appreciate any insights you all might have. Thanks in advance for your help!

When choosing tires for your 2017 Chevy Silverado 1500, consider all-season tires if you want versatility. Brands like Michelin and Goodyear have great options that provide good traction and durability.

I agree! All-season tires are a practical choice for daily driving. But if you live in a snowy region, winter tires like Bridgestone Blizzak can be a lifesaver!

I would advise looking at off-road tires like the BFGoodrich All-Terrain T/A KO2. They really enhance the Silverado’s off-road capability, and the tread pattern is aggressive enough for rough terrains.

If you’re an off-road enthusiast, those tires are fantastic! Just be aware they can be a little noisy on highways.

Remember that tire pressure plays a huge role in performance and safety, regardless of the type of tire you choose! Keeping it maintained is key.

Good point! I often forget about tire maintenance. It’s so crucial for handling and fuel efficiency.

In colder climates, I swear by my Nokian Hakkapeliitta winter tires! They offer superior grip on ice and snow.

Those are great! I’ve never used them, but I’ve heard similar praises. It’s intriguing how tire selection varies by location!

I suggest looking into the General Grabber A/TX for a nice blend of on-road comfort and off-road performance. They’re quite impressive in wet conditions too.

13

I’ve considered those! They seem solid from reviews, but I wonder how they hold up long-term.

Just remember, choosing tires is like dating—what works for someone else might not work for you! Test out what feels right.

I have a 2017 Silverado, and I’ve had great results with the Michelin Defender LTX. They offer excellent durability and a smooth ride!

I’ve heard good things about those! I went with the Goodyear Wrangler All-Terrain. They’re pretty reliable for off-roading and have good tread life.

I just want to chime in that the Bridgestone Dueler H/L Alenza Plus tires are also a solid choice. They handle well in rainy conditions and last a long time.

Great choice for versatility! I’m leaning toward the Nitto Terra Grappler. They seem to be a nice balance between performance and durability.

Totally agree on the Nitto Terra Grappler! I’ve had mine for a year, and they are holding up great, even with heavy loads.

I found the Falken Wildpeak AT3W tires to be great for both highway and off-road use. They are cost-effective too!
