All terrain tires
I will be buying a new set of tires for my van, Costco has a good deal on a set of all terrain tires. My question is do they run any louder or rougher than normal LT tires ?

What they did do was kill my gas mileage due to the aggressive tread design. I lost about .6 mpg with them (only when towing).

Really? How could you tell the difference? My trucks fluctuate that much on gas mileage depending on how much I ate for lunch that day! The struggle is real.
I went from an average of 7 down to 6.4 When I switched back to a hwy tread the average towing mileage went back up by that .6mpg. So yes it does make a difference.
:h strange. gotta be other factors. wind conditions or something. tire diameter's the same. Of course rolling resistance could be lowered by use of a less aggressive tread, but overall, I've never seen such a change with either style of tire.
