    Pretty sweet looking, but too heavy (47lbs each) and aggressive for my daily use.

    I’ll add the Goodyear trail runner AT. Got a set of the 265/70/17 for $512 shipped at simple tire.com. Quiet on the highway and has an aggressive look. @ 34lbs per tire based on what I found on the internet.

    I haven't read through the thread but Cooper makes solid tires. I will be listing a set of AT3's on FJ Cruiser wheels shortly in 265/70/17. Very good tire for the money. I'm going up in size on my FJ to 255/80/17 with Cooper ST Maxx which is the only reason I'm selling them.

    At 34lbs... that can't be a 265 (or larger) tire? A 245, perhaps.

    Seems from reviews the Defender is better than the AT2...But It's still #4 on the list currently in my tiny brain.

    I hear you and feel the same way, but I caved and have my new Defenders arriving today. I will probably be the first person with SCS rims to install a highway tire haha. Time to turn in my man card.

    Not so fast. I'm thinking you made a damn good choice. I bet they'll look different and awesome. Please return with pics and a report...

    I've had the Wildpeaks for a few months and I love them. They have been great in the heavy snow we have had this winter. The vast majority of the driving I do is also paved roads, with a little bit of dirt roads. They have performed great so far. I would highly recommend them, plus they look awesome.

    I like the look of the wildpeaks, but didnt like their 48lb weight for a daily driver. I will probably get some for my GX470.
