    I bought them used but still good tread. I have ran them since may 2020, probably well over 30k. I do more then 15k a year. Id get them again if they weren't so loud. And I like to try other options out there.

    I put on a set of Yokohama Geolandar A/T G015 about 4 years ago. Have over 50k miles on them and really like them. They are quiet on the highway and just A/T enough for light off-road use. Will probably replace in kind when they finally wear out. My truck has become a highway queen and does 85% highway/local road use with some light off-road and construction site time.

    Yeah I was hoping to stay out of the $300+ for a tire plus everyone seems to have them. But with that kind of mileage DAMN! and they are in stock.

    I've had mine for years and still appreciate it. I converted mines to lock/unlock with the truck. This reminds me though, I need to remove mines and paint it black. Mine turned almost white with the fade, even trying to keep up with the back to black stuff. I dyed mines black, but it's coming through again.

    I truthfully cannot recommend Discount Tires' Pathfinder Pathfinders in 285/75r16 enough. They have been phenomenal tires for me everywhere from Moab to slick mud in the Rockies to snowy/icy roads. I love these tires and will likely get another set when they eventually wear out.

    I had a set of Pathfinders on my 2012 and they got too loud for me at 50% tread so I sold them and went back to street treads.

    2" spacer lift, 285/70 R17's and a Softopper.

    +2 for the KO2's I don't think there is a better tire for all around use.

    Still figuring it out…
    Got these rims the other day for free! Way better than the originals that were scratched and peeling. I plan on using these as my winter set and then get some ‘22 trd sport rims and new tires by spring
