... And they feel great.
2008 LR3 SE 89,000mi
I couldn't find a whole lot about these tires and I spent a few weeks researching tire options when I bought this car. I thought I would offer to answer any questions and update this thread periodically as I put the miles on, for those that are interested in this particular tire.

Old tires (Hankook all seasons 255/60R18)

If they made em in 265/65, I would've gotten those. They don't, so I figured this was second best size.
I don't have a lot of info yet, but I'll update over time.
Noise: Only gotten up to 55mph yet, slight whine but nothing crazy.
Rub: TBD, have not moved any cables or trimmed any plastic yet.
Cost: $153/tire at Discount
Usage: Mostly overland/expedition with the family, but I don't want to have to worry if I can make it anywhere/anytime. Would like to try some moderate to difficult trails eventually. Don't want tires to be limiting factor. This is my DD for now but I have very short/easy/slow commute.
I did order a fifth full size wheel and five tires, now I have to get a rear tire carrier (ideally) or roof rack (less so). Tires were my first major purchase. Next up is refreshing all the fluids and other recommended maintenance.
