Mine are still too new to make any real judgements, but on my Sequoia they are certainly no match on the pavement for the Goodyear Forterra Triple Treads (discontinued SUV street tire). They definitely have a rougher ride like from having stiffer sidewalls (mine are Load Range C), a bit noisier, and the one time I pushed them up to 80 mph I really seemed to feel the speed more than I did before. I rarely am anywhere were 70+ mph isn't "going fast" so I'm sure I'll settle in just fine after a few mile on the Colorado trip.
