Hi everyone! I live in Puerto Rico, in the hotest part of the Island, so I will never see snow here. So, what is the best all terrain tire for summer?

Mine were built with the Falken AT 235 and they have done everything I need and speced for the bronco sport by Ford fwiw. 12000 miles in no issues.
I agree with Mike. The Falken 235’s seem perfect.

There are two oem options, the pirellis you have are the 225/65/r17 or you could have upgrades to the 235/65/r17 falkens. You can of course put those on now after the fact but you'd be paying full price for them new instead of just an upgrade. Are you taking it off road or just around town?

I mostly go around town, but my in-laws live in the country side and on rain season, just started, roads and dirt roads become tricky.

I would do at least a 235/65/r17. You can go as big as a 245/65/r17 which I believe the falkens also come in. There are several good tire options in those sizes. I did the cooper AT3 4S since I'm mostly in the city but hit up the farm from time to time and others on here can recommend some other good tires.

Thank you Warpious! I have thought already, that is a way to go. Thanks to all that gave your advice.

I don’t know that any of the A/T tires are really better in summer or make any compromises to get better winter traction. It is generally the siping that makes tires work on ice but I don’t know that it makes the tires sacrifice anything for summer off-road conditions.

What I tend to do is head over to Tire Rack and input your model...I then look at the reviews of others and tire Rack review if they done one. I try to find the best tire for my needs that don't cost an arm and a leg...

So for example on the Falken Wildpeak A/T3W this is how the people rated them....

Ford Bronco Sport Best all terrain tires for summer? 1657573531108


I will then see if TR has a review and video on so tire and see what they say...

You can also view what tire is consider the "Best" in that category.. Tire Category: On-/Off-Road All-Terrain

From the looks, both Falken models are rated excellent!
