Lincoln Aviator Tires

The Aviator is available with either a RWD or AWD drivetrain, making it a capable performer for a variety of weather conditions. With that in account, we’ve rounded up some of the best Lincoln Aviator tires, including premium all-season, all-weather, and winter tire choices, based on SimpleScore. Ready? Let’s go in for a closer look:

1. Bridgestone Alenza A/S Ultra - Best All-Season Tire

Let’s get this list started with the Bridgestone Alenza A/S Ultra, a versatile all-season tire that scores highly for year-round traction on dry, wet, or snowy roads, all with the sort of low noise levels and plush ride quality you’d expect with a Grand Touring tire. The Alenza A/S Ultra is one of the newer tires of the Alenza tire family from Bridgestone and is designed with precise handling and long, even tread wear in mind. Where the rubber meets the road, Bridgestone starts with an advanced silica-based rubber compound that’s designed for long wear and low noise along with reliable grip in wet or wintry weather as well as long wear and noise suppression. The asymmetric all-season tread pattern features wide circumferential grooves to channel water away from the tire’s contact patch and resists hydroplaning. When the snow starts getting deep, there’s a dense pattern of sipes and Bridgestone’s Snow Vices, grooves that pick up and retain snow to develop snow-to-snow friction for dependable traction in such conditions. Bridgestone’s Quiet Track technology package delivers a whisper-quiet ride by reducing pattern noise and canceling certain frequencies. Internal construction for the Alenza A/S Ultra includes a polyester casing topped by two steel belts and a spiral-wound nylon cap layer, for the long wear and great highway speed stability you’re looking for. Add that all up as a package and Bridgestone is confident enough to stand by it with an 80,000 mile limited manufacturer tread life warranty. According to SimpleTire’s SimpleScore system, the Alenza A/S Ultra pulls down an overall average of 9.6, with marks of 9.55 for handling, 9.7 for longevity, and 9.7 for traction. Dependable grip year-round, long, even wear and handling that’s sharp and direct – that's what you can expect with the Bridgestone Alenza A/S Ultra.

2. Nokian Hakkapeliitta 10 SUV - Best Winter tire

Next, we come to our winter tire, the Nokian Hakkapeliitta 10 SUV – and probably one of the best performance-oriented winter tires for light trucks and SUVs that’s available anywhere. Finland-based Nokian (yes, the same parent company as Nokia phones) comes with decades of experience making tires for winter weather, and the Hakkapeliitta 10 SUV is designed for the rough, extreme winters in Scandinavia. SimpleScore gives the Hakkapeliitta 10 SUV a solid 9.9 for traction, which shouldn’t come as a surprise – this tire incorporates a directional winter tread, sweeping grooves, and a dense pattern of sipes, and is already fitted with studs for ice storms that turn roads skating rink-slick (always check your state laws for the legality of studded tires). The Hakkapeliitta 10 SUV’s stud pattern is optimized at two different angles for tenacious braking, acceleration, and maneuvering traction, yet it’s also designed for the least impact on pavement surfaces and is tuned to keep road noise low (along with a foam layer for further sound insulation). The Hakkapeliitta 10 SUV is also extremely tough, with Aramid-reinforced sidewalls, and a tread formulation that’s durable but flexible in subfreezing weather, earning a SimpleScore of 9.1 for longevity. Handling gets a score of 8.9, thanks to its shoulder design and directional tread. Last but not least, the Hakkapeliitta 10 SUV is designed for low rolling resistance, sufficiently so that it’s also a great fit for hybrid and EV SUVs. As you’d expect, the Nokian Hakkapeliitta 10 SUV is Three Peak Mountain Snowflake rated for severe winter service.

While these are the three best Lincoln Aviator tires on the market, there are plenty of other great and good options out there. Here are two other tires that stood out to us:

3. Nexen Roadian HTX2 - Great All-Weather tire

Next up we’ve got the Nexen Roadian HTX2, a premium all-weather tire for light trucks and SUVs. The Roadian HTX2 is Three Peak Mountain Snowflake rated for severe winter service thanks to its wide grooves, open shoulders, and large, angled tread blocks with an advanced sipe pattern; we give this tire a SimpleScore of 9.1 for traction. The Roadian HTX2’s all-weather rubber compound is also engineered for long, even wear, backed by a 70,000 mile warranty, and earning a SimpleScore of 9.9 for longevity. The shoulder design and internal construction of this tire inspire confident handling and road manners (as well as low rolling resistance), for a SimpleScore of 9.3 for handling.
