Where did you get them from?

I've never seen the low tire pressure light come on. The last time I aired down I wasn't looking for it. Even though I carry a good Viair compressor and an air bleed tool, I don't always air down. Especially if the road is easy.
I suggest getting a good tire pressure gauge and keep checking your air pressure until you're confident that tire pressure is not dropping on your daily commute. I have a tool that bleeds the air down to a preset pressure that also doubles as a good tire pressure gauge. ARB makes one and there are a few more brands available on Amazon.

265 70 17
Fill the wheel wells perfectly, I think 285 without a lift looks like too much tire.
They are unbelievablely quiet, and as others have said, for some reason the pics do not do them their full justice...they look much more aggressive in person..better looking than a k02 by far in my opionion

Gas Mileage
After a week with the P285/70/17s installed my gas mileage has only gone down .1 mpg from the stock wheel and tire combo. Granted, the konig wheels are lighter, but I was expecting more of a drop.
I commute 66 miles a day on fast county roads - 60-80 mph, with a bunch of stop signs.
P265/70/17 Bridgestone duelers on stock trail wheels - 18.8mpg
P255/75/17 Goodyear duratracs (worn) on Konig Six shooters - 16.7mpg
P285/70/17 Falken AT3/W on Konig Six shooters - 18.7mpg
No rubbing 95% of the time. Minor rubbing when turned at full lock and braking (aka pulling into parking spots, reversing out of sloped driveway). I believe a BMC would stop this.

Good to hear the no drop in MPG
Ordered the AT3Ws from Discount tire two days ago in stock size 265/70/17. The tread width on the Falken's is listed as 4mm wider compared the to the stock tires so it should help fill-in the SR5 wheel wells. I asked for a price match from an on-line retailer where I get a 10% discount and DT beat their price by a couple of bucks so went with it $110/tire plus tax and install.
My stock Bridgestone are down to 5mm tread after 23K miles but for Minnesota winters, you are better off with a bit more. Anyway, just wanted to share as I had been on the fence because of the 8lbs extra weight going form stock to these. I am really hoping they can get the balancing right the first time... I asked for the wheel and tire matching procedure which is not something they do unless you ask. As far as the Haweka adapter is concerned, the manager did not know what that was. LOL

Those are brushed gold. The brushed copper is a bit darker in color.

Thanks for the pics & review. I’m actually in the market for rims & tires for my 4Runner & these tires were suggested 265 65 18, with an 18 rim. I’m not at all familiar with this brand of Tire & had always thought Michelin’s were the way to go, which my vehicle came with & have performed excellently, but now are drying out at the sides. My rims are peeling and look ugly. Your tires look amazing! I know they were new when you posted those pics, how have they performed over time & how are they now? Would you purchase them again? I would appreciate your help. Thanks in advance! Pamela.
