I'm putting the A/T3's on my 2020 110 TOMORROW... same set up, 265/60/20. I've been waiting for the tires that came with my rig to wear enough to justify replacing... gonna break them in on a road trip to Sedona!

My buddy who owns a tire shop says a lot of K02 die hards are switching over to the Falken Wildpeaks 🤷🏻

Are you on airbags or coils?

Air suspension... the Wildpeaks are a huge improvement and they look amazing. No rub in any of the three heights.

Awesome, same here. I need a pair of tires soon, so I am going to go to Wildpeaks.

I am between the Wildpeaks and the Mickey Thompson Baja Boss. Does anyone have any experience and looked at the same?

I had a set Jeep Gladiator before the Defender, and it came with Wildpeaks. Those tires were great. I subsequently switched to Ridge Grapplers and then K02's, but didn't like either as much as the Wildpeaks. Now that I'm looking to replace the tires on the Defender (going from the 22's down to 20") Falken was the only tire I was really considering. I knew I would love the Wildpeaks, but decided to give the Rubitreks a chance. Looked close to the Wildpeaks, but with slightly better road manners, which seemed to be the best of both worlds. I wasn't able to find much about them online, so it's a little bit of a gamble. New tires and wheels are getting installed tomorrow.

There are a few pics in the post just above your.
But, here is one more.
I think the tires are great and I'm very happy with the choice. A little more road noise than the stock 22's, which is to be expected, but nothing that isn't covered up with the radio on. Even if they were considerably louder, the better looks (my opinion) and performance in bad weather would be more than worth it.

Returning from the Destination Defender event in Texas. I made note of the tires being used on the manufacturer vehicles on the off road course.
