What tires?

[dcpac1]

Is anyone getting a lot of road noise out of the OEM's after 20,000 miles? Love the tire, but it seems to be getting loud.

All tires get louder as they wear out, It's the nature of the beast.
Even my wife's shitty oem tires that came on her Wrangler got noisy as they wore out.
Think of it this way, its kinda like when your brake start squealing to indicate it is time to change them.
Granted not sure how long these tires are supposed to last, but at 20k I could see them being a bit louder.

yep mine at 17k are crazy loud now, I just assumed it's because the lower tread, never had offroad tire before

Same. Most all terrain truck/suv tires act this way. I’m about 17k miles too and they we substantially louder. Still fine though.

IMO the stock tires are junk. The only good thing about them I they are pretty light for their size. IMO again, the best tire I've ever ran and I go back to every time are Nitto Ridge Grapplers. For as long as trucks need tires, I will only buy Nitto's. They balance easy, they're quiet, they ride phenomenal, and they are just a good looking tread pattern. I just went to 37x13.50r18 and they ride better than stock(sure there's more sidewall), but they are SIGNIFICANTLY quieter than the stock goodyears while being taller, wider, and heavier. Nitto Ridge Grapplers definitely are worth the price.

My 25 RHO tires were noticably quieter than our 26. First thing I noticed when I got in our 26 was from day 1 how much louder they are. I would jump to another tire but besides loud they are light, work good off road, good in rain,snow, ice and way better than my K02s. Not a fan of durtracs. Cant figure out what would be a good replacement

If you ever go 37, I’d say take a look at Toyo.

Good info. Did you do a lift and/or keep the stock wheels for those 37’s?

I loved my at4w’s. Great traction and road noise in all climates.

Ridge grapplers are the worst tires on the market. Difficult to balance, rough ride and no traction.

On the Toyota forums people say they’re not as good as the AT3W’s. Any experience?

That's odd. I have heard much more the opposite. People liked the at3w, but the 4's were far better. I had them on my GMC and they are very good tires and loved there.

I should clarify specifically wet/snow performance

OH - well yeah. They are not dedicated snow tires. I only used them slightly on TX ice, but it got me home. They're not great, but I have only had good time driving on snow and ice with winter tires.

On wet roads they work amazing. Cold (sub 40deg) and wet/snow. Not my first choice - but I would never choose all season over winter rubber.

Yep. Eibach 2.7
