Do you have the 3.92 or 3.21? I have the 3.21 gears and trying to decide if I should go with the heavier tires like the 285/65/20 or stick with a lighter non E tire in the 275/60/20 size.

The Wildpeaks come in 35x11.5r20 as well. Almost the same measurements as 285/65r20 but 3 lbs lighter each tire if you’re worried about weight.

So what PSI is everyone using ? have been doing to 39 to 45 range. I know the side say's up to 61. But man does that make the ride hard.

I have the SL 275 60 R20. They ride good. Not loud and mpg loss negligible. With 3.92.

So wondering what yo guy's are doing bout the speedo calibration if anything. After putting the 285/65/20's on it iv'e been told i need to readjust the speedo. What tools are you guy's using to do this. I have an Autel MX 808 but haven't seen if this will work for it.

I’m running 4ply at 37 cold. Even wear, thought about raising it to 40…

I just sold my Jeep JK Unlimited Rubicon which did mostly street driving but included some pretty good off reading (Rubicon, Moab, etc.). I had numerous tires on this vehicle over the years. My favorite tires were the 35x12.5 Falken WildPeaks. Quiet and smooth on the street with very good tread life. Off road they were even better. Better than any other All Terrain tire. Not as good as Mud Terrains, but with the great street performance, I would recommend them to anyone that does both street and off road.

My factory Falken Wildpeak AT3 in 275-65-18 are approaching 32,000 miles and thought they were wearing well but seem to have really accelerated the last few thousand miles. Doubt they’ll make it to 40,000 so it’s time to look for an upgrade.

Overall I’m really happy with these tires especially in snow plus very quiet on the highway for an AT tire. Really no complaints except for rapid wear on these factory tires which isn’t at all surprising since we know they put cheaper grade tires on at the factory to save money.

My question is how do the afternarket Wildpeaks compare to the OEM that come on the ORG? Is treadwear much better? I see they have a 55,000 miles treadwear warranty on them so assuming they must be better.

I’m planning to go up in size to a 295-70-18 if that makes any difference.

Used the DT Tazer to change my tire size...really easy. I am running the LT285/65R20s.

How are your LT285/65R20s in the rain as well as the ride? I’m trying to decide on 275/60/20 or go up to LT285/60/20 but worried about ride quality, wet traction and how bad a hit to MPG I get.

Amazing!

I am usually a Mich man with tires but I have told several people that I am def going this route again on this truck. I live in CO and we do not get a lot of rain, but when we do they have been outstanding. They really are an all-weather tire that has great on/off-road capability. They have been great in the snow and on the trail. Really have not let me down yet (knock on wood). You are going to get some road noise out of them but they are not loud by any stretch. So overall ride quality is really good.

I will have to say that I also ordered mine from Custom Offset as a wheel and tire package. I have never purchased tires that way before but was really surprised how easy it all was. Came on a pallet and already balanced...just slapped them on!

Anyways, I really do not think you will be disappointed with them...think they are really solid.

I’m debating on this size or a 275/60. Don’t want to lift the truck but looking for a better look than stock. Do you have a picture of your truck with the 275/55?
