Then balancing accounts for the flat spots and you are back to vibrations on the highway. Again, the heavy weight/grossly oversized tires/very stiff sidewall tires are where that happens.
As for psi, to be on par with P-metric tires in terms of load capacity, LT tires must be run at very different pressures, normally 42-44 for a 4Runner. That almost nobody likes doing that is another story.
Here in the desert, I can see the LT argument and I might move to an LTC eventually (though I survive just fine on P). In the Midwest (or Northwest) I would not run an LT.

What makes you say they're LT? As far as I can tell the LT A/T3W's have a separate part number and I definitely went with the standard non-LT 265/70R17.
