I am planning a trip to the San Juans this summer and am wondering if anyone has experience running SL tires on Colorado mountain passes, such as Imogene, Engineer, Cinnamon, and Ophir.
I have Passenger SL rated Falken Wildpeak AT3W in 265/70/18. I plan to run these passes with a RTT and about 175lbs in the rear of my 100 series.
I am not armored, do not have bumpers or sliders. Running stock everything with a 30mm rear coil spacer.
Does anyone think this is a bad idea with P tires and only one spare? I have the opportunity to trade up to Wildpeaks in LT275/70/18, but it will cost me about $800 for 5 mounted / balanced after tire trade in.
Thank you for any advice you can offer.
