    I’m just gonna throw out he Falken Wildpeak at3w. I’m running those p rated in 265 75 16. So far they are great and I think they are one of the best looking AT out there at about the same price as the kumho at51. They have them in pretty much every size from what I can tell

    Yeh that's really my only other viable option if I want to stay P rated.

    I just looked at that size to recommend it, but they're mostly all load E unfortunately.

    I have been looking at those as well. I only went with the Kumhos because they were running a rebate at the time.

    How long have you had them? How is the tread wear?

    That's really what I want, but couldn't stay P rated. I'll have to mull this over a little longer.

    Not too expensive either. $540 for a set of 4 to your door.

    I’ve only had them on for about 1500ish miles. Probably not long enough to see what the overall treadwear is like. From the reviews people are getting decent miles out of them.

    In the snow they did great. Drove to Massachusetts yesterday and they were very comfortable. Road noise is noticeable but not bad, my only comparison for noise is the stock 245s and 215s on my old 5lugger so probably not a fair comparison haha.

    It’s really icey in mass today so I might need to see how they handle that.

    Not bad at all!

    Nice. Let me know how they do. I'm probably still a few months away from making the move, but those are definitely in the running now.

    It's a work in progress. See my build thread.
    Nice! But I don't get "For up to 37 inch tires or larger"... WTF does that mean?

    Probably because on smaller compressors their duty cycle would run out before filling the tires, making you wait awhile for it to cool down.

    They’re just longer AFAIK. As far as fluid film, go nuts! Some may burn off from the exhaust, but it won’t last long.
