    From all of the reviews I have read of both tire, the g003 seems to have far better reviews across the board. I have run the g003’s but never the Falken MT’s. I don’t think you would find many people who say the Falken’s are better. Yokohama makes a really, really good mud tire.

    Yokohama is superior in my uneducated opinion.
    What’s kinda funny, I looked up the weight of a 285 70 17 Mt Falken, C Load - it weighs the same as my fat ass Falken AT3W in the same size and load 61.3 lbs. 10 pounds heavier per tire then my KO2s I used to have same size and load. Falkens are fat!

    That will be the Yokohama , 285 70 17 E load is 58 lbs, Falkens are fatties!
    Pretty crazy that my Falken AT3Ws C load in that size are heavier than the yoko MT.

    that’s for all the info guys!!

    I think I’m just gonna go for the falken. I live here in Beirut, Lebanon. The Yokohama’s don’t even exist here if have to ship them from overseas. There’s lots of falkens though, they are still awesome, right ?

    Falkens are a great tire. Definitely heavy.

    I’d try to score some Jeep Gladiator or Rubicon take offs, those guys want 35s or 37s off the lot. You can get a killer deal on their 285 70 17 Falkens or KO2s.
    Look on Facebook marketplace or Craigslist , or Jeep forums.

    G003 are more cost effective
