(They were a great tire but wanted something different and if memory serves me correct the Toyos are quieter than the AT3W even when I first got them but hard to say…)
I like the look of the tire (Not to aggressive but not too simple either…) and I really liked the weight. Published weight on the tire is 47lbs and I put one on my scale and it was 46.7lbs
I’ll update here as I put more miles on them. Love the look with my lift!!

Do you have any more thoughts now that you've had them a couple months?
I'm on 265 SL Wildpeak and am contemplating upsizing to 285s. I'd love to stick with the Falken's again as my current set has exceeded all my expectations, however the heavy weights has me second guessing myself. I'm looking to keep unsprung weight as light as possible.
Seems like the AT3s are among the lightest of the bunch, and perform well all around on and offroad. I do a lot of offroading around Colorado and Utah and am starting to get more into rock crawling so I'd probably be looking at 285 C load.
The vain part of me is also hesitant because the sidewall design is a huge step down from the Wildpeaks in terms of aggressiveness and I sure do love me some meaty sidewall....
