Packed with Technology | Falken Wildpeak A/T3W

Anyone running 255/80/17 with these, on 6112's set at 3rd notch for a second gen?

 

Probably no one. That size is not available in this tire.

At least to my knowledge. @Discount Tire Direct

 

I figured this would only be on the LT sizes. I'm planning on getting these in 265/70R 16, so this is a nice bonus over some other tires I was looking at.

 

Does anyone have any close ups of these mounted on aftermarket rims?? I am concerned they don’t look agressvie enough

Close enough?

 

I love me some technology, my butt dyno says these tires are packed with it. LOL anyone I know that references these tires knows of this thread!!

 

They are aggressive AF, don't worry.

 

265/75r 16 10ply

 

Those look good! Are those the LT version? Thanks for the response!

 

Did the 10-ply result in significant loss in MPGs? I think the 10-plys look quite a bit more aggressive due to tread thickness

 

Not sure about MPJ, noticed minimal difference driving. About 500 highway and maybe 50 city so far. yes LT. I was very apprehensive about E range, but great with daily driving normal conditions.

 

LT version

 

I’m between these and the general grabber AT2’s... decisions decisions... any thoughts between the two?

 

Very interested in these as there are very few tires in a "P" rating that are 285/70R17. Most jump to "LT" in that size with significant weight increase due to more ply sidewalls. I've had Nitto Terra Grapplers in the past. They were 45 lbs. Now I'm running Bridgestone Revo II and they are 46 lbs. Much better wet traction (I don't offroad) but don't have the aggressive look. I love the look of the KO2's but again with the LT only in the size I want. Too heavy and not worth the sacrifice in my opinion. So when I saw these were available in P285/70R17 with aggressive side walls I had to check them out. 50.8 lbs. Not great but not too bad either. Can anyone comment on their experience with the effect of tire weight wrt ride quality and power loss? Should be ready for a new set of tires next summer.

 

Hello everyone wanted to insight before i purchase.

So i currently have a deposit on a set of Falken P rated 285/70/17 Weight 50 lbs. Cost is approximately $800 mounted. Through discount tire if i add the warranty certificate it is $902.70 total.

The 285 will fit i just need to do a CMC which i already have the plates for.

Other option is i can get BFG KO2 in E rated 275/70/17 Weight 55 lbs. Cost would be about $1,000 mounted and everything.

I probably won't be doing any rock crawling, mainly trails / to fishing areas. Do i get the Falken without the certificate warranty, the Falken with the warranty or just the BFG KO2 without warranty.

I highly doubt i would ever go anywhere i could risk puncturing a 10 ply tire, especially since BFG has their 3 ply side walls. Kind of leaning towards the BFG since I wouldn't need to have the CMC done and probably for my use wouldn't need warranty on those either.

Any suggestions? Thanks

 

Blah, mixing up tires again. Sure wish they made this size though. I've been spacing out more than usual.

These tires don't start getting any taller, until you get to 285's correct? I've been wanting something taller, but didn't quite want to jump to 285's.

 

265/70/17 are 1"taller than stock 265/65/17 or same goes for 265/75/16 vs 265/70/16

 

P rated 285/70R17 only $159.99 on tirebuyer.com and additional discount of $75 if you buy all 4 for limited time. Free shipping to installer. So $640 - $75 = $565.

 

I'm pretty close on pulling the trigger on a set of LT245/75 16 (load range E). Looking to replace my current snow tire setup and I need a 10-ply tire to run with my truck camper. Who's running this size?

 

Thanks going to have my discount tire price match that saves me bout $83 bucks as those tires are 2 bucks cheaper each
