ETA: What PSI are folks running on thier E load tires (275 or 285)? Seems 38-40psi is popular.
I'm running my 285 Wildpeak M/Ts at 36-37psi.

Also for the OP, when I had my Wildpeak AT3Ws (E), I can't say they were loud on the highway. Had them for about 20k miles before changing them out for the M/T. They were still at 15/32 (17 to start) and had about 1500 miles of offroad travel on them.

I have the 285 KO2's. I would have gotten the Wildpeaks but they weighed about 7 lbs heavier each. I have never figured out why a Wildpeak C-load is so much heavier than the KO2 C-load. In fact the C load and E load Wildpeak's weigh about the same. That doesn't make any sense.

I run them at 42 PSI.

No sorry that was for OP.

Also I keep my E's at about 34 to 36. 40+ is harsh to me.

I bought some falken wild peaks in 275 flavor about a 2 weeks ago. One of the main reason I chose these over ko2’s or any other is because they are c rated and wanted to keep the same ride as the stock tires. Do have some rubbing on the front mud flap, Bilstein 5100’s on the way. Also, only have about 1k or less miles on then but I haven’t got any additional noise on the road

Yea all of Falkens tire weights seem odd, especially the C vs E load weights. Why are they heavier than the Ko2s? Not sure really but I remember reading somewhere that the steel they used in the belt was cheaper and heavier than the type the Ko2s use. I was concerned about the weights but got a deal I couldn't say no to lol. 64lb tires ...yeap lol

I put 275 wildpeaks on the wife’s T4R and they are pretty quiet. I refuse to buy BFG KO2s anymore.

Why? I have run 3 sets on 2 different 4runners. Close to 150k miles with not a single issue. I will say, they lose some wet weather performance after about 40k

I have them on my FJC and my 4Runner. They are a good all around tire.

I have a set of the 285 Falkens and a new set of Methods in the shop now. Just waiting for new TPMS sensors and I'll mount them up. I did a lot of research before pulling the trigger and the Falkens seem to be held in very high regard. I have also had great luck with the General ATX's on the truck now. 30k on them and maybe 1/2 worn. I've had numerous sets of the BFG's also. Never had an issue with them. I did run Coopers on my last Tacoma and they were OK but not great.

BFG KO/KO2s were the only tire I ever bought for the 9 Toyota 4WDs I’ve owned.

My last two sets were installed on an 07 T4R Sport 4wd V8 and a 2000 Land Cruiser. They both wore like complete crap. Rotated/balanced at every oil change at the Toyota dealer.

Now I have two 5th gens and figured it was time for a change. The Falkens have been great so far.

Got em on this morning along with the CF 2/1.5

3rd Vehicle with an AT3 variant, second with XLT's. Best A/T out there. I've owned 7 sets of BFG's (A/T, KO, KO2, M/T, and KM2), I'm a Cooper convert.

I’d trust a recommendation for Coopers from the CO and TN members vs the Falken recommendation from FL. No offense FL you guys just have too great of weather down there. MA is another beast of climate.

You friend probably has E rated Falken tires and you should get P rated Falken Wildpeak AT3 since they only weigh 50lbs and it's more than enough for your application.

Have you taken a look at the Toyo Open Country A/T III. They come in a c rated tire now weighing 55lbs.

Those look pretty great. I’ll have to consider them as well. Thanks for the recommendation!
