These are great tires. Now michelin milking it on the price though. They are almost twice the price of average tires. But not twice as good.
I'd already been impressed by how noticeably smoother these tires were and how they just felt invisible for the past few weeks. I drove them through two downpours and they were amazing. Hydroplanes I expected to happen just, didn't. I wasn't expecting them to be as good as they are in this nonsense. They just gripped, no slip, no drama.
Tinted windows and Michelin Defenders after the OEM tires crapped out around 20k miles were also big improvement’s.
They switched to the Terra Grappler G3s and said they were much quieter. I’ve been happy with them so far. They are definitely quieter than the Wildpeak A/T4s and lighter.
I run Falken Wildpeaks AT4w on my GX 550... The Falkens have been on for a year and are great on road and light off-roading. They are good in the snow but not as good as the Toyos.
We also replaced with the Yokohamas and think the car rides better and is smoother at highway speeds.
Just put on 265/65/18 SL wildpeak at4w on an otherwise stock 2012 GX and can confirm that they will fit with no rubbing. Compared to the Michelin latitudes that were on before, the feel on the road is noticeably better, i.e. more plush but also more planted... if that makes sense. Road noise is minimal difference in my mind but I have a skybox on top so maybe I'm just used to it. Being in pnw, wet traction is a must and these should do the trick.
AT3w in stock size on a 17 GX here. Slightly more noisy than the factory rubber but unless you rode in it before and after the tire change, you wouldn’t notice. It’s that subtle. Waaaaay more capable. No loss in MPG that I have noticed. Win win.
