    The difference between the LT and Non LT really comes down to how much you off-road. The LT is great for lots of rocky off-road type terrain but you give up some mileage and weight.

    Im sure someone will correct me if im wrong but the main difference in LT vs P tires is number of plys, I think that is how they make the LT tire have a higher load rating, also more durable for off roading, and makes them heavier. If you tow or off road LT would be better, but for mostly highway and better mpg P or non LT(same meaning) would be better choice

    For these tires all the LTs are C, D, and E rated and are 6, 8, or 10 ply. The Ps are SL or XL rated and are 4 or 6 ply.

    Sounds like a precise answer, thanks. I knew it had to do with plys and what not but was too lazy to look and see specifics for him

    I spent a lot of time (maybe too much?) researching these tires before I bought a set for my truck. Still fresh in my mind.

    Not if your happy with your purchase. I'm getting ready to pull the trigger on these, in 245/75r16, I'm just waiting to see if there's going to be another eBay coupon soon.

    The stock hankooks on the SR, suck but I got 38000 out of them, but the little snow we got today showed me how bad the hankooks are.

    Funny, similar story here. I was looking to replace the stock hankooks on my SR since I bought it. Driving on them in the first snow of the year convinced me pulled the trigger on the Wildpeaks.

    Yeah.. Tire Works. Doubt they ship.

    Dude kept trying to upsell me on the Toyos, but said no one really complains about the Wild peaks. Said the brand was trash for years, but finally got it together with these.

    So tirebuyer.com had these at $479 (using promo code FALK60) free shipping to Pep Boys in Gulf Breeze, FL. After $38 tax and a $66 install it would have been $583.

    I called Pep Boys because thier website said they did the Buy 3 get 1 free deal with Falkens. So guy on the phone says he has them but out the door would be $850ish. I said no thanks I'll order through tirebuyer.com and have them install them. He asked what I was getting them for, he put me on hold and said he could do them for $439....$559 otd mounted/balanced/taxes. So I happily accepted.

    This was for my 19 DCSB TRD 4x4 so I kept my oem tires put them on Facebook marketplace and will sell them for $300-400.

    I'm sure any Pep Boys near you can match that price.

    FWIW, ised the Pep Boys buy 3 get 1 free price to get DTD to beat the prices for my GTI and hey did and then some. They also cut down the cert prices for me. I honestly think they’ll beat any price. But, there are a lot of good tire stores out there.

    Wanted to post here since it is in relation to these tires.

    2017 Sport DCSB 4x4 everything stock. Got these tires 265/70/r17.

    Have minor UCA rub despite everyone saying no rub. Each picture shows left and right rub and how much clearance between tire and UCA at full lock.

    Any solutions? I plan on getting an old man emu complete lift in the future. But what could I do to fix this rubbing? Level it? Alignment?

    Thanks for your help in advance, everyone.
