EV Sportline R800 Wheels + Falken WildPeak A/T3W Tires installed photos

They make 2 versions, 115 (44 psi) and 119 (65 psi). I'm hoping he went with the latter, that's what I'm eyeing!

Those are LT-- his are not. They are 115 load. Zoom in on the last of his pics.

Wow really? How’s the ride on the lower 44 max psi?

Yep...they weigh about 48lbs. And I'm running them at 50psi. The ride is much smoother than my 22s.

Any concern running them above the max psi? edit: tire rack shows 51 max psi and americas tire shows 44... the discrepancy is disconcerting.

I'm seeing 51 psi. It's pretty annoying the websites are all different, I've had this issue looking at a few different options.

The Sam's Club tire shop that I went to has 51max psi on these tires as well, but my club actually inquired with Falken directly, who is apparently based nearby, because they weren't 100% sure on the max psi for my truck. They w ere extra cautious since they hadn't worked on a Rivian up to that point. I'm comfortable running them at 50, plus, as @Riviot so keenly noted, my tires explicitly state 51 max psi.

Did OP ever state what he's running his at? I assume he opted for the 275/65/20s, rather than the 60s like myself.

Especially since Discount/America's Tire owns Tire Rack. Like wtf.

Boom! You got it! Thanks for validating! So.....are you settled on which tire you'll choose?

I can't decide! My inner conservative economist says dedicated snow with better efficiency, but the 8 year old boy says match the Matchbox!

How is road noise on the highway with the new tires?

I can hear the tires on pavement with these...whereas on my 22s, I didn't notice it. This is to be expected. It is by no means overwhelming or annoying...just mildly noticeable now, but you get used to it after a few minutes and forget about it. The noise just disappears into the background...at least, that's been my experience so far.

It's harder to hear the wind noise with the ATs

Also this helps with the AT road noise:

I went with the Falkens! So I'll be jamming with y'all again soon enough

I ended up going with the 115s, I am learning a ton through this process ultimately. Those were the ones discount tire had nearby and matched the vehicle in their system. Learning more every day!

For what it's worth, the ride feels better to me for 90% of it. The curbs and other things feel better and the truck itself feels more planted, that could just be mentally tho. The noise is better as well, but I definitely do see a decent hit to the range, however come winter - it'll be well worth it. We did a roadtrip from Denver to Toronto in February- through a huge snow storm last year and I wish I had these tires for it.

These beautiful monsters arrived last week. They're SICK! ...now... if only I had an R1S to bolt them to. s=0===0=n!
