Hankook ATM RF10

I was considering the Hankooks until I realized the 265/75/16's only come in a load range E. That's too stiff for my daily needs.
 
I have these tires on my 97 Grand cherokee over all performance with the tire I love them the mud has been good along with rock, gravel, and wet roads... This will be my first winter on them I have no doubt they will do well... My only issue with them is that I have had 2 side wall punctures with them all on the same tire.. but over all a great tire

Funny I was just looking at these 2 hrs ago.I'd like to know about snow performance and the weight difference between the hankooks and the BFG at ko's.

They are noticeably better on ice and packed snow than the BFG. The sidewall isn't going to be nearly as durable, especially when aired down. They are a durable tire, but the BFG is more so.

I'm looking at getting these in the P265/75/16. Anybody have the Pseries ones that aren't as heavy, and less ply's than the LT versions? If you had to do it again would you go up to the LT for any reason or go down to the P for any reason?

I want the P's for the lighter weight but on the trail don't want to be having sidewall issues.

I have about 10K on the P265 ('08 FJC).

Excellent road manners.
Quiet, fuel mileage averages 19 combined.

Have run a few local trails, most recent to box canyon. No issues with sidewalls...

I have five in rotation, no noticeable wear at this point. I drive ~2000/month for work. :smiley_drive:

:sombrero: I've been running the Hankook Dynapro MT RT03-LT295/75x16 on my Jeep JKU Ruby and They're probably the best/quietest/aggressive tires I've used in years

I have run this tire in 285/75/16 E rating, for about a year on my suburban. Zero issues. Quiet, smooth, good tracking.

Thanks 1leg. How are they in the rain? I have this (possibly irrational) fear of sliding out and wrecking in the rain. I'm not sure where it came from. I have just never felt safe driving in the rain. Of course I'm coming from a lifted TJ on D rated Mud Terrains.

been running these in 265/75 in the P rating, i was skeptical about it at first but i didnt want E and they are priced great even with a full puncture warranty from discount tire so i figured it would be worth a try, havent had to use the warranty yet and ive taken them down some sharp rocky trails. totally happy with these tires.

I put them on the Tacoma specifically to get around the elephant-on-skates feel the mud terrains I had gave in the rain. These are a HUGE improvement. Maybe not Goiodyear Aquatreads, but they give reasonable confidence and have produced no scary moments, which was not true for the KMs. Hankook makes a deal of how they designed the tread for good wet traction, and while I'm no expert, I doubt that any tire with similarly strong off-road credentials could do better.

Thanks a lot for the info. Now I just have to decide if I want to run an E rated tire or not.
