They look great but do come at a cost with the mileage. But it’s a 4Runner not a Prius so I don’t care. Slight rub when backing and turning on hills. Minor trimming will take care of it. I’ll try to post pics later on.

If you want a beefier tire with good performance tire that looks awesome the Falken is great. If you want a smooth/efficient tire go with something else.

How would you consider the road noise?

Would love to see pics. Do you own a Pro or other model? I'm asking b/c most Pro owners haven't complained of any rubbing with the 275's (w/o mods).
