I'm having this debate as well. I'm moving to 285/70/17's at the same time as when I lift my 4runner. Can't decide if E Rated AT3W's are worth it or to just say with the C rated 6 ply as they are very capable based on what I am reading. I would mainly be out 4 or 5 times and currently I mainly like to drive roads or moderate off road trails to get to more isolated camping spots. That being said, I initially thought E Rated as I didn't want to limit myself in potential future endeavors. I had not thought about the harsher ride for my daily driver or if E Rated would ever really be needed due to the capability of the 6 ply tire.

$30 difference per tire plus and I'm getting 5 tires.

I personally would stick with the “c” rated for your situation. I have the wildpeak in 285/75r16 in E rating as that’s the only option and I feel like it’s just too much overkill for what it is. They were hard to balance, ride kind of rough and are pretty heavy. So I would stick with the lighter weight better riding ones especially if you aren’t rock bouncin them then you should be fine and having a 5th spare if you ever need it then you have nothing to worry about.

I appreciate your feedback. I actually got the e-rated ones and so far they don't ride that bad at all. I'm stoked on my new suspension and tires.

I have the SL rated 265/75 wildpeaks and I have the perfect picture to show sidewall flex. I have never had an issue with mine. My wheeling I mostly mud and rocks. Granted its nothing as extreme as out west but I've never had an issue with them at all.

The photo above is at 15 psi

Good to hear, what’s your suspension setup and what psi do you run?

Just recently bought a 3rd gen (stock weight) that had these tires on them (on 4th gen 17s). How much are you able to air down on rocks with these? I'm a total noob and recently went on my first moderate trail (first time ever doing anything in a 4wd). Given slightly smaller sidewalls than these same tires on 16s the people I was with were reticent to have me air down anything beyond 25psi. Pretty sure they are the 4ply.

Edit: Also what do you run for highway pressures?

When I had these I ran them at 12-15 psi off-road. If you look at my photo above you can see they will flex a pretty good amount giving you some good traction. I ran mine at 30 on the street

Did you have the SL rated ones or did you get LTC or LTE rated?
