ok, here's a quick tire review, mind you, I haven't had them for very long, but, I've already tested them out in a few environments....but first, the specs and such...
Manufacturer: ProComp (procompusa.com)
Model: AT Sport
Size: LT265/75R16 Load Range E (Part Number: 42657516)
Max Load: 3415lbs
Max Pressure: 80psi
Tire Diameter: 31.6"
Section Width: 10.2"
Tread Depth: 15.7/32nds"
Now that the boring **** is out of the way, here's what sold me on the tire:
Warranty: 60,000mi NON-PRORATED (only company I've found that doesn't do proration)
MSRP: 175.99/ea
Initial Impression: Good looking tire on the truck, not nearly as beefy looking as the KM2s were, but, at the same time, something about the look appeals to me MORE than my KM2s did. Side Lugs are decent, and, they don't bulge like the load range D duratracs did that I had them test-fit. The big circumferential voids/channels are nice, and the lug design should do nicely on most anything I throw at it. The lugs are of varying widths too, to help clean out snow/mud/etc.
Driving: they're SILENT...ok, maybe not, but, I sure don't hear them with my windows down at any point, other than when driving over overpasses, then it sounds the same as any other highway tire. I thought my KM2s were quiet, but I could at least hear them, they didn't have "mud tire howl", and were quieter than the KO/KO2, but these....these are friggin silent. The factory rugged trails were louder I'd bet. They're VERY responsive to driver input, and dry grip is terrifyingly strong, as is wet. They loved sand earlier, and even the mild mud I got into pulling a coworker out from a construction site...no packing or anything, I was very pleased. Oh...and according to my bullydog, I'm averaging 3mpg better than I was with the KM2s, and, I already got decent economy with those. My across town to work trips on the KM2s ranged from 14-16mpg, and the last two days, I've averaged 19mpg, at 75-85mpg. Tonight, I had a ton of wind, and, unlike the KM2s these felt planted. I'm truly looking forward to the upcoming months, maybe years with these tires, to see what comes of them.
All in all, I've had em for 2 days, and, I'm giving them the trial by fire, since I can take em back if I don't like em, and will get it sorted....but, so far, so good, I see no downsides to them yet..
