Inspired, ordered and now installed! Love these tires. And the annoying steering play that came with the factory Falken Wildpeak MT’s is gone!

interesting. So simply switching to the mickeys your steering wonder has subsided? Even being pizza cutters? I must say Im not super impressed with how the falkens like to get drawn into ruts on the highway.

did you go with 33’s or 35’s?

The Falken AT3Ws, IMHO, are way better than the Falken MTs

Thanks for starting this thread! I've been looking for a 35x10 and didn't know what to think about the Kenda's. I had 33x10 on my JKU and loved them... but wanted something larger for the JT, so got sucked into a 35x12.5. It leaves a lot to be desired for daily driving and winter weather.

Just might have to swap out my set for some of these Mickey's. (which of course means my 9" wide wheels need to go too....) ? ? ? ? Never ends does it! :facepalm::)

Yes. The play in the steering was driving me insane! For the life of me I couldn’t understand how a manufacturer could let a vehicle roll off the line with this issue. I took it to two different dealers when I got it and no one had answers. I just kept leaning toward the tire after that and sure enough it was the tire. Now driving can be mindless and fun. They are 35 x 10’s

These tires do claim to have amazing response and on road handling according to the their website, so I guess they're not lieing! I can't wait to get them, my truck will be paid off in June so it'll get treated with those tires soon after

this is really good to know and I appreciate the response. Its been annoying to me how muchmine wonders as well - and its a 22 with the steel steering gearbox so I also suspected the tires right away. Its nice to have that confirmation.

I know you just made the upgrade, With the increase size and weight, have you seen a drop in mileage. That’s my biggest concern with an lt tire is the weight
