First pic is current with drawer system in the back and 2.5" lift. Second pic is of the drawer system (built with 5/8" thick plywood), third pic is after I installed the moog springs and monroe shocks

Wow. Your pilot looks great!

Do you have a link for the lift? I couldnt find it right off the bat.

Just don't do what I just did. I raised my rig 2", then bought a tire 2" taller. Guess what ???

Yep 3" is the standard minimum lift for larger tires i went with 3" lift on my colorado because i went from 31" to 33" tires. Unfortunately 33" is the largest i can fit without some serious fender/body modification so anything over 3" lift would start looking funky also anything over 3" starts messing with the geometry of the suspension and things break.

Not as bothersome to me as the 12" lift with 22" wheels with low profile tires. I dont get it but someones got to buy it i guess. Or could be they just need something to run on the street and have tractor tires sitting around at home for offroad.

My rig is a 2004 Honda Pilot. I’m trying to decide what my first set of AT tires should be. I’m mostly oriented towards softroading as i tend to stick to the gravel trails in the rockies here, though i do wanna attempt some slightly more technical trails in the future. My commute is all highway, and ideally i wanna get something that’ll perform well in the deep freeze and heavy snow of central Alberta.

I’ve been looking at the Falken Wildpeak AT3W since they’re not too expensive and from what i’ve been reading they seem to perform well in snow and on highway. I’d probably get the P rated 245/75/16 XL since i feel the LT rated tire is too heavy for my needs. I was also looking at the Goodyear Wrangler Duratrac in the same size but those i’d have to get in an LT size. Other options i’ve considered are the Michelin LTX AT2 and the Continental terraincontact A/T for a more highway oriented AT tire.

I’m very, super, extra lost in my search here to be honest. Anyone in central Alberta have any recommendations for good all around AT tires?

I've been super happy with my Falken Wildpeaks I got them in January, I'm on the west coast and havn't tried them in snow yet but they do great on the beach sand and they're quiet on the freeway. I had AT Muds on before that were noisy and cupping was a problem. Save $50 a tire and go with the Falkens.
