The Dunlops were fine though to me for the few miles I put on them... I just wanted a little more aggressive tire for the little off roading I do. The tread is actually pretty decent for the occasional offroader IMO. If you watch some of the Trail videos, they do some pretty incredible things with those stock tires.
I have 4k miles on the Dunlop's so far. If I can't sell them I'll just keep them until its time to replace them I guess. By the way why didn't you add running boards on your TE?

No real reason other than I like the look a little better without... looks good either way though.

Nitto G2’s were just released in October 2014. I can’t find much info on them either. It will be some time until reviews start to surface.

Honestly if you want to get rid of them quick you need to have them already uninstalled. I would sell them for 200-300. People won't bite above that. Discount Tire was able to give me a credit of $200 on mine so I just let em have them and it saved me the trouble of having to try and sell them

$200 should be fine. Discount Tire would buy them?

I'm also looking at getting the 285 nitto g2 in p rated. I like the weight of them compared to the at3 and the are more available than the at3 in p rated from discount. I figure if Toyota is using them (regular not g2) as oem equipment now they are happy with the performance mpg wise and safety wise.

Sold them for $300 or $350 on Craigslist... don't recall exactly what it was.

My local Farm & Fleet will price match. Where is the cheapest online retailer with or without shipping that I can show them for these AT3's?

Nice looking tires...

How much did you end up paying for them, out the door with all fees, etc?

Also, what size did you go with?

I read something about them helping minimize brake drive. Maybe I'm nuts, but yes this is true. A tiny bit more highway noise, but not major. They drive and feel GREAT!

I'll have to take a picture of them during the day...

The tread on these AT3's looks awesome. Is it just me or do these stick out more than my old Dunlop's?
