    So my total travel came up to 1289 miles round trip.
    I have seen Rain and light snow and the tires did well.
    Wow these tires are quiet, very quiet on the road and quieter than the Firestone Destination LE2 that I replaced. Ride was very comfortable. Kind of softer ride probably due to thick treads. Cornering seems to be good.

    However, I was comparing the speed from what is being shown in Waze and on the speedometer, it was off by about 2-3 mph. Not a big deal but I just want to point that out. Also all 4 tires were inflated to 32psi

    I do not remember matching speed with my Tacoma and Waze before but I have done it before on my other vehicles and pretty much spot on or if the mph off, the difference is only 1 mph or less.

    it is spring right now and I know and will have an answer to this next winter.
    Probably will not get this since I do not like my truck getting dirty but maybe when I go off-road.
    May not or may see this soon because I am kind of tempted to do off-roading.

    Yes, it did ran a couple of miles high.
    I did not observed if it did on the old tires but observed it on the Rubitreks. Did you noticed the same thing on your truck?

    Haven’t checked. I thought most vehicles ran 1-2 MPH high. Either way. There was a post about running 265/75/16 and it was indicated that size brought the speedo accuracy in line. FWIW
