SimpleTire’s view on Multi-Mile Wild Country XTX AT4S tires

All-terrain tires for light trucks, Jeep, and SUVs are a pretty crowded category, with many, many options to choose from. The Multi-Mile Wild Country XTX AT4S is an excellent value and bang for your buck in an all-terrain tire, in our opinion. The Wild Country XTX AT4S is pretty confident on gravel, loose dirt, or mud, with its lug tread pattern and wraparound lugs at the shoulder that extend onto the sidewall for the lateral traction you need to claw out of ruts. The Three Peak Mountain Snowflake certification is also a definite plus – its tread pattern, grooves, and sipes all work as a system to deliver strong, dependable traction even in deeper snow and slush.

On the highway, the Wild Country XTX AT4S is civilized and predictable. Road noise is manageable, ride quality is exemplary, and it keeps its composure without getting jittery and squirrelly over irregular pavement, bumps, or railroad tracks. The 40,000 mile warranty is also a positive for this tire, considering that many AT tires don’t have treadwear coverage at all. Steering response and handling are also direct and decisive without being overly touchy.
