    I'm guessing 265/75? Do you have a picture of the entire truck with this setup? I already have the wheels, I'm considering this tire too. I think it looks great in your picture.

    I’ll try to get a larger scale picture tomorrow. Only close up pictures so far and it’s dark now. I kept stock size 265/70/16. They are more bulky than I expected and look good. I’m happy with the look. This is also my daily driver and I commute about 50 miles/day so I needed a tire with good road performance and wet winter weather performance. Seemed like the right choice. I did take the truck back to Discount Tire today to rebalance. Felt a bit of a wobble on the freeway. Will assess on tomorrow’s commute. If the balance is worked out I think I’m going to be really happy with these. For those who care, no noticeable change in mpg compared to stock Goodyears observed yet.

    Currently have about 25k on my XLT’s and the wear is very even. My only gripe is they are already down to about 10/32’s. I should hopefully get another 15-20k out of them, but they definitely won’t be going 60k. Ill still get another set of XLT’s when these wear out, but in a 35

    How many miles can I expect out of my Cooper Discoverer AT/3s? I had them installed somewhere after 94K miles but before 95K, so I currently have about 13K miles on the tires (current odometer reading as of this post is 107,506). The tires show absolutely no signs of wear and at this point I would gladly buy another set of them when the time comes!

    Also, it worth it to put one on my spare? My spare tire has a 10-year old Dunlop on it and has never been used. My mechanic said the spare would be safe to use.

    Wondering if anyone here has real world experience with the AT3 LT in 235/86/16 sizing... Mostly how is the ride quality both on and off road .. I have an 01 RC 2.7l so weight is important and at 43lbs these are some of the lightest tires in this sizing out there.. Im currently running GY Authorities in this size (49lbs each) and they are fine on the street but very harsh on dirt roads and washboards are agonizing if i dont air down... which gets old when youre daily commute goes from street to dirt getting to job sites and such... and i normally only run them at 30psi... Really hoping these are a bit more forgiving than my current set up..

    Any info helps...

    had the 265/70/16 put on a couple weeks ago (4s model)

    so far so good. They have been very smooth on the highway at 75mph and quiet around town. I notice maybe just a hair of a hint more noise than the stock wranglers - or it could just be me.
    The noise on the two are very comparable.

    from the specs they were maybe 1-2lbs heavier than my stock wranglers which had 40k miles on them. I can tell they are a little heavier based on how much throttle I have to use to get going but not enough to deter me from them.
    my mpg is pretty close to the same - less than .5 mpg difference.

    I am definitely glad I went with them instead of the 265/75/16 for weight reasons, I also considered the C rated tires too which are even heavier. Glad I went with SL rated for weight reasons.

    Tread is a bit more aggressive looking from the side which gives the truck a good look over the stock tires. I'm not lifted or anything so it looks just right with them.

    in another month or so im sure we will get some snow but so far they have been great in the downpour rain we have been having.

    I only have the 4S versions, but mine wore down to 11-10/32 in about 20k but haven't been wearing at all for the last 15-20k. Have leveled off at 10/32s and aren't wearing seemingly at all for the last bit. Of course mine didn't have as much to begin with as your XLTs so you've definitely worn them down a bit more but if they are anything like the 4s, the wear should slow from here...
