I'm currently on Falken and really like them. They have that aggressive look yet not loud and balance well. Keep an eye out for Discount Tire Direct sale. They ran some promotions last year. I'm planning to get 265/65/18 size when these worn down.

Falken At3 have been very impressive up here in Montana. Great in mud, gravel and snow. The tires do hum compared to highway tires at high speeds 70-85mph. Other tire I would consider is the Hancook Atm Rf10. Half the trucks here run these tires and say they are incredible in the snow, highway, etc. Only reason I went with Falken was because stock size is more like a 6ply and was hoping for more durability from gravel road punctures...so far so good.

Default New purchase. 2011

Recently bought mine with the wheels attached.
They seem to be 22” U2-55 with Hankook Ventus 305/40 R22 114V Extra Load?

picked up a '14 460 last week. had some nokian winter tires put on the stock wheels yesterday. really want a set of aftermarket wheels for summer. Ive focused on a set of Rays 57Trans-X in 18x9 +0 offset

wondering about tire sizing. leaning towards the Michelin defender LTX M/S. Is stock sizing appropriate for the wider aftermarket wheel to maintain OEM matching diameter? should I move to a 275/60?

This is my wife's ride so dont need anything overly aggressive but need something with more bite than the soccer mom tires on there now. Right now I'm looking at either BFG ATs, Falken Wildpeak AT3 (run these on one of my jeeps and really like them) or any other suggestions.
You want a set of nokians

Id recommend a set of WR G4 SUV or rotiiva AT

these will far out perform any of the tires you have are considering

nokian has some real good tires.
they have a studded version that has same diameter studs, meaning they dont get bigger after a season and end up making traction worse.
they also have hardened steel studs. most shouldnt use hardened steel studs but they are available for those who should
