Dodge Ram-1500-sport Tires
For years, the square-body RAM pickup has mostly stayed the same since its 1972 inception. That all changed in 1993. Introduced in the mid-90s, the Ram pickup has been a favorite of drivers for decades. With big rig-inspired styling and various drivetrains and body styles available, the Ram 1500 is the ½-ton rated iteration of this popular truck. The 5th-generation RAM is available with an extended cab or 4-door body (single cab was discontinued due to low demand) and trim levels that include Tradesman, HFE (High Fuel Efficiency), Big Horn/Lone Star, North Edition, Rebel, Laramie, and Limited. Upscale trim levels of the RAM 1500 are refined and sophisticated with amenities like leather seating, 19-speaker Harman-Kardon audio, a 12” touchscreen, full driver assistance, air suspension, and much more. The V6-powered HFE trim of the RAM 1500 is rated at 20 mpg city, 26 mpg highway, and 23 mpg combined, which is pretty remarkable fuel economy for a full-size pickup.
Our team at SimpleTire looked through the catalog and put together some of the best tire options available for a 4WD-equipped RAM 1500 Sport, including all-season, all-terrain, and winter tires. We then ranked them in Best/Great/Good order and used our SimpleScore system to assign numerical scores for each in handling, traction, and longevity categories. Ready? Let’s go in for a closer look:
1. Goodyear Wrangler Steadfast HT - Best All-Season Tire
The Wrangler Steadfast HT from Goodyear is a highway all-season tire designed for Grand Touring-style standards of ride comfort, road manners, stability, and treadwear. Durability is at the top of the list with the Wrangler Steadfast HT, DuPont Kevlar in the tread, a reinforced sidewall, and built-in WearGauge indicators in the tread face. Goodyear backs the Wrangler Steadfast HT with a 70,000 mile manufacturer’s treadwear warranty. That means you’re getting a tire that offers long, even wear and resistance to damage from potholes and other hazards – we register the Wrangler Steadfast HT with a SimpleScore of 9.9 for longevity. A SimpleScore of 9.7 for traction is pretty notable, too, thanks to a pattern of sipes for winter grip, lateral/angled grooves, and extra-wide circumferential grooves that help negate hydroplaning and get through wet weather easily and confidently. Cornering, braking response, and steering input are all sharp and accurate, thanks to that proven tread design and a solid center rib – the Steadfast HT comes in with a SimpleScore of 9.5 for handling.
2. Toyo Open Country A/T III - Best All-Season Tire
Any 4WD-equipped RAM 1500 is just as capable off the pavement as on the highway, so here’s our best all-terrain tire choice. The Toyo Open Country A/T III is the kind of tire you can depend on for the traction and durability you need for off-road adventures in sand, snow, mud, or rocks. The Open Country A/T III means you don’t have tradeoffs on the low noise, responsive handling, good road manners, and comfortable ride that you’d expect from some of the best all-season tires. That might all sound like a tall order to fill, but the Toyo Open Country A/T III is precisely that kind of all-terrain tire. Toyo prioritized durability with the Open Country A/T III; it features a tough cut-and-chip resistant tread compound., polyester casing, two steel belts, and a spiral wrap polyamide cap layer. Toyo stands by the Open Country A/T III with a 65,000 mile manufacturer tread life warranty, which means a solid SimpleScore of 9.6 for longevity. The symmetric all-terrain tread features a high void ratio and stone ejectors to easily shed stones, mud, and debris, ensuring a clear tire section to dig in. Its extra-deep tread assures long wear as well as traction. The Toyo Open Country A/T III has the Three Peak Mountain Snowflake certification for severe winter service (SimpleScore of 9.7 for traction). Cornering, braking, and steering responses are also direct and precise without being overly sensitive, thanks to the shoulder design, sipe pattern, and stable internal construction of the Open Country A/T III for a SimpleScore of 9.3. Overall, the Toyo Open Country A/T III is a robust and dependable choice for a RAM 1500 Sport, with performance that’s equally at home on or off paved surfaces.
3. Nokian Nordman 7 SUV Studded - Best Winter Tire:
All-season tires make a great jack-of-all-trades most of the time…unless there are several inches of snow, and then most of them just fall short of getting the job done. Nokian is a Finland-based manufacturer (the same parent company as Nokia phones) with decades of experience producing that can meet the demands of a harsh Scandinavian winter. The Nordman 7 SUV Studded is a next-generation premium winter tire designed for dependable, balanced traction and control. The Nordman 7 SUV Studded is Three Peak Mountain Snowflake rated for severe winter service, which gets a boost from the specialized winter tread formulation that stays supple for traction in snow and ice and a directional tread with deep angled grooves, a dense sipe network, and slush edges to channel slush from the tire’s contact patch. The Nordman 7 SUV Studded gets an outstanding 9.9 SimpleScore for traction. Cornering, maneuverability, and steering response are more what you’d expect from a performance tire, for a SimpleScore of 9.5 for handling. The Nordman 7 SUV Studded comes in at 8.5 for longevity, which isn’t surprising since it’s a winter tire and should not be used for warmer temperatures. For icy roads, the Nordman 7 SUV Studded is pre-drilled for easy installation of studs – but check your state laws for legal restrictions on studded tires, and when (or if) they can be used.
That’s a good start on tires for a RAM 1500 Sport, but we’re not done yet. Here are a couple more premium tires for you to think about:
4. Falken Wildpeak H/T02 - Great Highway Terrain Tire
There’s a lot of commonality between all-season and highway terrain tires, but with more focus on the ride quality and low noise, you’d expect from a Grand Touring automotive tire. Our favorite highway-terrain tire for the RAM 1500 Sport is the Wildpeak H/T02 from Falken, a tire designed to pair well with the high-torque specifications of today’s trucks and SUVs. We gave the Wildpeak H/T02 a near-perfect composite SimpleScore of 9.9 thanks to its silica-rich tread compound, rugged upper sidewall, and enhanced load rating. Falken covers the Wildpeak H/T02 with a manufacturer's 50,000 or 70,000 mile treadwear warranty, depending on size. When you need to depend on year-round grip, the Wildpeak H/T02 gets a SimpleScore of 8.7 for traction with wide circumferential grooves, angled grooves, and 3D Canyon Sipes. The cornering dynamics, braking performance, and steering response of the Wildpeak H/T02 are also stable and have good roadability. It’s designed with support bridges that tie tread blocks together for stability during cornering by resisting deformation and tread squirm. SimpleScore for handling: 8.8.
5. Nexen Roadian ATX - Great All-Terrain Tire
Let’s wrap this list up with the Roadian ATX from Nexen, a great value in a durable, versatile all-terrain tire. It might seem counterintuitive, but the Roadian ATX’s rubber compound is designed to provide traction and durability even as the tire’s tread wears down. It’s tough, too, with 3-ply construction, extra rigidity for load capacity, and a reinforced sidewall. Nexen covers the Roadian ATX with a 65,000 mile manufacturer’s treadwear warranty, which we calculated to be a solid 8.5 SimpleScore for longevity. The Roadian ATX is a confident and dependable performer on or off the pavement; it’s certified with the industry’s Three Peak Mountain Snowflake designation for severe winter service. Wet, dry, or wintry grips come from an aggressive all-terrain tread with wide zigzag grooves and robust tread blocks. Regardless of conditions on or off the road, this is a tire that’s up to the job, and we give the Roadian ATX a SimpleScore of 8.6 for traction. All those design factors also mean steering response, control, and cornering that are composed and predictable – SimpleScore of 8.7 for handling.
