Triple Peak Winter Tires

[CyberPanda]

I know some will say it’s early. But just in case there’s a shortage or difficulty sourcing, anyone have any good recommendations for the 20” Cyber Wheels that’s triple peak rated?

I’ll go Falken Wildpeaks AT3’s but I don’t think they fit on 20’s. Will likely get some 18’s at some point

Tire rack actually shows some options now. Seems like the BFGoodrich KO2 has triple peaks.

Thanks! Liked the 3’s on my tundra and 4runner a lot more than the KO2’s. Haven’t seen the AT4w’s

I had Wildpeaks on my Jeep Gladiator... they are an awesome tire.

Tsportline guys say the size will work: https://www.cybertruckownersclub.co...cybertruck-explained.12110/page-2#post-242544

Nokians are some of the best snow tires there is. I know it is what I will run once I get my CT here in the north.

Also nothing beats a dedicated snow tire. Even if they are tripled peak rated, some tires don't work well in tough winter conditions like we get in Canada or north of the US.

Those Nokians say max load of 3748lb.

I agree, there are a lot of tires that are triple peak snow rated that aren't actually very capable on snow or ice. It's a pretty bogus rating because it only requires the tire to have 10% more traction than whatever their reference all-season tire provides. That's not saying much.

In my experience, you can get tough winter conditions anywhere it freezes, the location has more to do with what conditions are most common, and how often winter conditions are encountered.

Is that too little?

If I'm not mistaken, those load ratings are for 1 tire. That would then be 3748lb x 4=14992 lbs maximum load carrying capacity for those tires. That should be more than enough for every CT variation sold now.

Check this link for full explanation: https://www.tiresplus.com/tires/tire-buying-guide/tire-load-index-chart/

"The tire load index lets you know the load carrying capacity of a tire. In other words, it’s the amount of weight your tire can support safely.

For example, if a tire has a load index of 92, it can support 1,389 pounds at maximum air pressure. Multiply that by four tires (4 x 1,389 = 5,556 pounds) to get your car’s maximum load carrying capacity."

I was wondering if it was per tire so times 4. Thanks for clarifying!

Those have a higher load range 126/123 (single/ as dualies) than the stock all terrain tires which are 123/120. Speed rating is lower though, so keep it under 100 in winter ?

That BFG K02 is not a good snow tire. May be triple peak, but I'd look for something else if you'll be in serious winter conditions.
