I've got the opportunity to get these really, really cheap. Does anyone have any experience with them. Thanks in advance.

how much is cheap ..
Just put mine on the other day...After rebates I got 5 tires for $610. I thought I was going to get them for $560, but Discount Tires wouldn't let me stack an extra $50 rebate. I got $135 in President's Day rebates and another $100 rebate from a Tread Lightly membership.
Anyone running Falken Wildpeak A/T3W?

So how about an update on these tires? Noise, performance, etc.etc.?
200 series guys seem to like them
Great on noise, I'm in an LX though. Good in the rain. They haven't seen any mud yet.
I just ordered a set of 275/60R20 WILDPEAK A/T3W for my LX
I've had them for over a year now and have put 10-15k miles on them with no visible wear. Sometimes they flatspot at night a bit but they smooth out within a few miles on the road. Not a big deal. They're a touch noisier than my old BFG AT KOs but they're quite a bit more aggressive so that's understandable.
I just put a set of 275/65/18's on my wife's 2010 200 series. I am very impressed with how quiet they ride (especially since my previous tires were Toyo Open Country HT's). Got a set of 4 for $600 plus mount, balance, warranty, and tax at Discount Tire. Only downside is sidewall is not going to be as durable as KO2's.
Any pictures to see how they look on the truck?
ElkWisperer-here are a couple pics of the tires on my 200 series.

I just put some on my F150 work truck. They seem to ride pretty darn well, with minimal noise.

SILVER Star
I have a set on my 570-primarily because they were almost half as much in the size I wanted vs. Ko2's. I like them so far. They are really quiet(even with the windows down) but I'm sure they'll become louder like every other AT tire with age and mileage.
Put about 1000 miles on them. Very smooth. Less road noise than the General Grabber AT's on my '06
How do they perform in snow?
Well, snow in Utah and snow in Oklahoma City are different forms of precipitation. Our couple snow days this year was at max 2.5 inches. The snow we had was on top of a layer of ice for a few days. I thought the tires handled really well. Someone else will have to chime in on real snow conditions.
Northeast snow tends to be heavy, wet, and cake like clay. They did very well for me. I prefer my cars on dedicated winters since those vehicles are 1000lb lighter and the tires are better.
Pretty quite for long road trips in the summer too.

Great tire that looks good and is a great value. I have over 10k on them with no issues. I had to plug one do to huge nail in the tread, but that would of happened with any tire. I would recommend these to anyone.
