Noise is noticably less with the Toyo's but that is probably due to the smaller contact patch and more street friendly tread pattern. I do feel an improvement in wet weather driving, beings as I feel like the tires don't want to float as much as the 12.5's did. I know the Toyo's are a good bit lighter, too.
Congrats my friend. Just drove mine 100 miles back home today. Other than the shop pumping them up to 45 psi, they feel great.
I’m stock suspension but aftermarket wheels I went to 35 x 12.5 Mickey Thompson Baja boss ATs. I absolutely love them I do have a little more poke than I would like but I’m putting on the xtreme recon flares so that should help.
Have Nitto Trail Grapplers MT, they are rated for snow but they aren’t really a snow tire. I really like the ride of the tires & the look, not all that noisy for a chunky MT. I left them on all last winter with no issues. Haven’t had them in any big winter snows I suspect wet or ice may be a bigger issue. The Nittos do have sipes which treads water away. I’m in Colorado where winter snows are fairly mild.
You won’t regret the Pizza Cutters, I have had them for a week. 35X10 was the best decision ever. They look great, they are quiet, they are fuel efficient and steering and drivability have drastically improved. Baja Boss has impressed me so far.
I have Falcons from factory and think they are a good tire but decided to go a different route this time. I know Goodyear doesn’t get much love maybe due to their corporate pandering but since they were my first retirement and the yearly special I get I couldn’t pass up the offer and went with the Duratrac this time around. I do like their tread design just hope they ride goodI’m stock suspension but aftermarket wheels I went to 35 x 12.5 Mickey Thompson Baja boss ATs.

Right on! I had a 33x10r16 on my JKU and really liked them. When I got the JT, I thought I'd see what all the hype was about and run a 35x12.5 like everyone else... not great. Hard to steer in tight situations (parking in a ramp/small lot/etc), worse than expected in snow/cold.You won’t regret the Pizza Cutters, I have had them for a week. 35X10 was the best decision ever.

The Tonka truck look is so over done. Since the 70’s Jeep’s have had big fat tires. They have very little use for daily driving, they are useless in snow or on ice. I’ll stick to tall and skinny, I went from 35X11.5, to 35X10 and I’m looking forward to the snow season. I’m on the east coast of Canada, snow is a fact of life here and traction is the most important. Fat tires are good in mud, that’s about it.
