I understand the tire subject has been beaten to death but please hear me out. I currently have the Nitto Ridge Grapplers in 295/55/20. They are E rated tires. I really like how they look but after running them for 2 years, they are loud and harsh in my 2017 crew cab sierra denali 4x4 6.2L . I'm looking for a quiet tire with a SL load rating, comfortable ride but aggressive look. I'll probably be going with 275/60/20 for the new tire size but also considering 285/55/20. I've been doing tons of research, reading reviews and forums but since I have no experience with the 3 tires in the poll, I'm specifically looking for people with first hand experience switching from an E rated tire to a SL / XL / P rated tire. I have also owned the Nitto TerraGrapplers and did like them ok but looking for something different. My truck is mainly driven in the city 85%, highway 10% and about 5% in the country (gravel, muddy fields, etc) while hunting a couple times a year. I also live in Missouri, so we do see some snow from time to time but that is not much of a concern with 4x4 already. Price is less of a concern but since it is relevant: Falken Wildpeak 275/60/20 - $238 each or $952 for 4 Toyo OpenCountry AT3 285/55/20 - $234 each or $936 for 4 Toyo OpenCountry AT3 275/60/20 - $266 each or $1064 for 4 Goodyear TrailRunner 275/60/20 - $156 each or $623 for 4 I'm getting old and want a smoother ride=lame. I know the magnaride is not the smoothest, I plan to see if the tires do the trick for me and if not, suspension is next. Many thanks!!

Recently put on some 35x12.50R17 Falken Wildpeak AT3W's and the truck has developed this pulsation like feel throughout the entire chassis. The issue was not there the day I drove to get them mounted and it started just after I through the new wheels and tires on. The wheels and tires were road force balanced by a local shop and they said there were no issues. They also labeled the tires with the recommended mounting location on the truck. You can feel it in the wheel and through the chassis but its not necessarily a vibration of a tire feeling out of balance. The issue starts at 60 mph and smooths out the faster I go but it is annoying as hell. This is not my first all terrain tire but it is the first time I have run the Wildpeaks. Just wondering if anyone else has experienced this with these tires and how you fixed the issue because aside from this issue, these tires are way above the Toyo AT2 Extremes and KO2's I have run.
