Tires*Tires*Tires*Tires !!!!!

I’d try and stay with C load. E load isn’t too bad in my personal opinion, but it definitely weighs more and has a harsher ride. Airing down is less effective for the same psi too.

Ie. If pure deciding between two load ranges, all else being relatively equal (looks, usage, size, price) I’d go for the lesser load capacity.

 

I switched tire brand and size and currently have a brand new Cooper ST MAXX in 255/85R16 for sale cheap if anyone needs a full size spare. $100

 

I just ordered Hanook 24575r16, gonna see how they perform

 

SO... wondering if anyone has any thoughts on Hankook Dynapro AT-M versus Yokohama Geolander AT G015?

I'm looking at new tires for my 2019 Pro and strongly leaning towards upping to 265/75R16 from stock 265/70R16. Two tires noted are same price and readily available through Toyota dealer and can be installed in conjunction with my 45K service in a few weeks.

Thanks in advance. Any and all opinions are welcome.

 

I have no direct experience with the Hankook Dynapro AT-M. However, I have ran the Yokohama Geolander AT G015 on multiple trucks and SUV’s. The Yokohama is a great overall tire.

I totally agree that your 2019 Pro should go up slightly to 265/75R16.

 

Ridge Grappler or Wildpeak??
I’m going to be due for new tires soon and while I want something with a more aggressive look, I don’t off road (as of yet anyway). Debating between the Nitto’s and Falkens. From what I see on Discount Tire’s site the Nittos are only $13 apiece more. Their “Tire life and cost” section indicates the Grapplers have a median 57k life vs 48k median life for the Wildpeak’s. Nitto’s have no mileage warranty and the Falken’s have a 55k warranty. I’m puzzled.

Those of you have run either or both…HELP please!

 

I owned nitros and they were true to size 35”= 35” the bfg km3’s were a 1/2” shorter. I see a lot of farmers and construction heavy trucks running those fallen wild peak tires. They seem to hold up well. IMHO you would be hard pressed to get a better tire than a Nitto or toyo. I can say this the toyo and nittos are good tires if you keep them rotated and keep an eye on the pressure. Good luck!

 

My phone changed the spelling. Hopefully you can figure it out!

 

I have the wildpeaks and they are quite for on road and do well in desert rock and snow.

 

The madness has grown…now thinking Toyo AT3 or General Grabber APT

 

Are you gonna go with pizza cutters? If so post a picture! Happy Trails…..

 

Sticking with the stock 265/65 17’s…no snow (except rarely) in DFW to account for and I don’t off road. Are there other reasons to go skinny?

 

Ground clearance
Fills up the wheel wells (asthetic)
Larger road contact patch
Better traction in rain and snow
It’s debatable about increased fuel economy
This is just a few. I’m sure there are others that have a better knowledge of the pros of pizza cutters.
I started using them on Jeeps because they seem to make the Jeep handle better than the 12.5” wide tires. I think the 255/85/16 are 10”.

 

Ended up going up a size to 265/70/17. Toyo ATIII’s
Surprisingly (to me) the stock front mud flaps rub a bit on full turn. Bought a heat gun and I think that will fix it.

 

I am new to the tire game. I have a 2021 Tacoma TRD Sport that I use to commute 100 miles per day 3X a week. my stock tires are done. lasted me 45K miles. i want to go with something beefier like an All terrain tire. i never go off road. any suggestions?
i was looking at these: Falken Rubitrek A/T 265/70R17 115T BSW - Walmart.com
Thanx in advance

 

Can anyone on here comment on the MICHELINLTX A/T 2 tires? I don't do a huge amount of off roading and these look very capable.

 

got these tires in 265/75r16. Fantastic tire! Got them from Walmart, delivered in a few days. They balanced up on the first try and have been great in the snow this winter. No rubbing and haven’t lost any MPG.

 

Last set I had on a F150 lasted 100k. never let me down.

 

Looking at doing a bit of light off-roading but still have the factory Goodyear Wrangler Kevlars on. Should I be looking to upgrade or can I do a bit with that? Weighing whether it’s worth selling them now (they have less than 700 miles) or keeping them on.

 

how is the ride on those toyos? and were you able to fix the rubbing with a heat gun or did it take some cutting?
