Going to be putting on some all terrains for some light off roading

[2018silverado4x4]

So I have a 2018 4x4 with the 4.3 and oem 20s. They feel great on road but are absolute crap off-road and have gotten me stuck a few times just in loose dirt. My stock tires are about at the end of their life so I’m looking to throw on some duratracs or at3s. Basically my question is, for those with factory 20s that went with ats was it worth it? Because I’m seriously considering swapping my 20s for 17s. If I go 20s it would be 285/60r20 with level and 17s I would be going 285/70r17. Anyone who is still rocking the 20a and is happy? I really just want extra the traction.

Also have a 2018 SLT All-Terrain with the 20 inch snowflakes that came with the Goodyear SRA tires. They were horrible for me in the rain and the snow and anything else that wasn't a dry paved road. Comfortable ride though so I will give them that. Anyway, I love the look of the 20 inch snowflakes, so I just slapped on some real AT tires and they made a world of difference. Right now I have the General Grabber ATX in 275/55/20 and am really happy with them. They are excellent in rain, snow, gravel, dirt and paved roads which I'm on most of the time. I also didn't get the LT size since I have no need for an LT tire.

I have good luck out the Nitto Terra Grappler G2's. Handle rain, snow, running around  thru pasture fields(wet and dry) just fine

I'm on my second set of ATs.

275/60 20

 

-Continental Terrain Contact A/T (Previous)

   -- They were quiet, comfortable, and had great traction on the road and seemed to work well in light mud. It doesn't snow where I live, so I can't speak to that. The biggest problem was that they wore fairly quickly (48K miles) even with them being rotated and balanced every 4–5K miles. 

 

- Cooper Discovery AT3 4S (Current)

   -- I've had them for about 5K miles and they haven't let me down yet. They have good road manners and I haven't noticed a traction difference between the two. Due to the tread pattern being a little more aggressive, I believe they would have better off-road performance than the Continentals. The only difference I've experienced is the road noise. It isn't bad, but you can tell it's there. 

 

I hope this helps you with this decision. Basically, it comes down to what you are willing to spend and what look you want (if that is a factor).
