    Lightweight, Quiet, Road-centric All-Terrain Tires

    There is a wide range of off-road usability in AT tires. I've had most of them. The Revos tread pattern is more street friendly than off-road friendly. Another is the Scorpion ATS - useless off-road - ask me how I know. This is a Raptor forum.

    Lightweight, Quiet, Road-centric All-Terrain Tires

    I have them on my 2022 F-250 Tremor. I should have put that in the thread. They are lighter than most in that size (37x12.5x18). I wanted the Toyo AT IIIs, but couldn't find them anywhere in that size. Those are a little lighter still.

    Lightweight, Quiet, Road-centric All-Terrain Tires

    I'm running the new Recon Grapplers in 37". So far, so good. Not the most quiet but not loud.

    Nasty noise on every startup.

    Welcome to cam phasers. Mine (2018, 62k mi) was making that noise also. Dealer still gave me $60k on trade for it when I ordered a new KR Tremor with 7.3L. No regrets. I get 14mpg now instead of 16, but at least burns Reg. When you go to trade it in, the engine will be warm, so it won't...

    GEN 2 Sold my Raptor and couldn’t be happier

    That's exactly what I got in mine also.

    Sag with barely any weight..

    Welcome to the Raptor. After 2 of them, I went to an F-250 Tremor KR 7.3. No sagging.

    torn between Raptor vs F250 Diesel/Tremor

    I've had 2 Gen 2 Raptors and a 2022 7.3 KR Tremor (present ride). I like the Tremor much better, and all I tow is a Waverunner. Unless you are into SERIOUS offroading, it is a better buy IMO. I like the higher stance also, and no auto-shutoff. I'm getting 13.5 mpg, as opposed to 16 in the...

    They work great and are standard on the KR with the Ultimate package.

    The factory powered steps go lower for easier entrance than the fixed boards.

    Damn, that is sharp. Dig what you did with it, esp the 17 inch wheels.

    For those who went to a Tremor Super Duty...

    All true, but this is a Raotor forum. I actually considered getting a KR or Platinum F150, but it was only about $1000 cheaper, and then I would have spend $5000 on a lift kit, new wheels and tires just to get it the way I want it.

    For those who went to a Tremor Super Duty...

    I went from 2018 Raptor to 2022 KR Tremor, and I can honestly say I don't see me ever going back to any F-150, even as my daily driver. And I only tow a Waverunner LOL. The shifter on the column, tow mirrors, sitting up high, bigger bed, massaging seats, automatic stepboards, etc etc. are the...
