I just had them installed yesterday but so far they are great. The ride is alot smoother and solid compared to the goodyears that came with the truck. They are also very quiet on the highway and it feels more stable when cornering. I will update on wet traction as soon as we get some rain.

Here is a size comparison between the stock goodyears and the Sumitomos

Goodyear Wrangler RT/S 265/70-17
Overall Diameter / Section Width / Tread Width
31.6 / 10.8 / 7.6

Sumitomo HTR Sport A/T 275/65-17
31.1 / 10.8 / 8.6

You can't realy notice the hieght difference but you can deffinetly notice the tread width difference. It looks great.

Old thread back from the dead but I'm looking at these tires in 18" for my 04' screw 4x4. Can you give any updates as to the wear, noise, wet and mud capability of these tires?
