Off road style tires for a 2023 CX-5?

[Enmanuelma2]

Hey team, any recommendations for off road style tires for my Mazda? I feel the ones that came with the car are too simple…Thanks.

BFG KO2 Load Range D. A little more noise than a less aggressive tire, but it'll get through pretty much anything we get here in the backwoods or a west coast winter.
They don't wander and aren't rough riding so not much difference in "comfort".

If you want a tougher tire with off-road "style", but not actually a true off-roading tire, perhaps the Nokian Outpost APT would suit. Comes in a variety of CX5-tolerant sizes for 17", 18" and 19" rims.

There's also the Falken WildPeak AT Trail. It's a tougher tire, heavier than a "regular" CX-5 tire. But it ought to take quite a bit more punishment than typical tires.
