AT4W - 265/75R/16 stock SR suspension.

Initial weekend thoughts:

- I sit slightly higher with these bigger tires. Just barely enough for me to notice though as I look over my steering wheel. I previously had on the stock 245/75R/16 HW tires.

-MPG’s don’t take a hit on regular roadways up to 45 MPH but getting on the freeway is when I feel some resistance. The truck feels heavier/slower and MPGs are reduced by 2-3 MPGs on the freeway as I’m accelerating more frequently to reach and stay at my desired speed.

-There is virtually no road noise difference from the stock tires, at least not what I’ve been able to tell so far.

-I feel the road more, speed bumps feel more sensitive for example.

-The A/T tread is picking and throwing up some rocks from the road.

I’ve only had them for the weekend so far but I love the functionality of these tires and they also add that desired aggressive look I have been longing for. I’m excited to take these off pavement real soon.

Pros: sits slightly higher, no road noise, good functionality, aggressive look
Cons: MPG reduced on freeway, feels heavier/slower, feel road more, picks up rocks
Vehicle: Toyota

I just got new tires. Went from MT Geolandars to Wildpeak AT4W.

I miss the more aggressive look of the MT but I’m loving the smoother ride of the AT4Ws.

Pros: smoother ride
Cons: less aggressive look

I thought they must be crap but after looking into them, they are very well-reviewed. A traction A temp, UHP (ultra-high performance) rated. I like them. You could pay $400/tire for a premium brand but they won't be 4 times better or last 4 times longer.

Pros: very well-reviewed, traction A temp, UHP rated, good value

I’ve enjoyed mine as well, and I’m about due for a new set.

But, just tossing this out there, I found they aren’t as grabby in soft sand or wet snow as I would have liked (conditions I find myself in).

They’re hyped up, and I liked mine, but don’t plan on getting them again.

Pros: enjoyed them
Cons: not grabby in soft sand, not grabby in wet snow, won't buy again

I put Falken Ziex (65k) on a Honda Civic 10th Gen. didn’t even make it to 40k. Never again. Rotated every oil change (5k). I know the heat had something to do with it (Florida) but the streets here are smooth as butter.

Pros: smooth streets
Cons: did not last

Mileage: 64373 km
