I can't seem to find on this site or elsewhere what type of all-terrain tires come with this $150 option. Anyone know what brand/model the all-terrain tires are?

My Lighting order: Lariat ER, Smoked Quartz Metallic, 8-1 build date

Congrats on the delivery! I'm torn between the smoked quartz and Star White but those pictures look great. Also love that you're charging the Lightning using energy from the forest. Very eco-friendly! 😀
Mine wasn't a delivery, it was a 'overpay for a customer that didn't accept delivery (that were then sold without reservation)', but thanks! The dealer had 2 customer-rejects that were almost identical, the smoked quartz and the Ice Blue Silver. I didn't get to see the latter (it wasn't there), but the Smoked Quartz is gorgeous. It is a 'deep dark grey' with a pleasant touch of blue that makes it pop. If I were to order, I would have probably done Red because I typically buy red cars, but seeing this in person convinced me this is one of my favorites!

I was a bit disappointed with the tread on the AT tires. I wasn't going to replace them but after bombing around a construction site today I think I probably will. Just not as deep of a tread as I'm used to and feel comfortable with for the rocks and environment I'm going to expose them too.

I’m actually pretty pleased with my A/T tires on my lightning. I was worried they would be too aggressive and thus destroy range after I placed my order. But I’m easily hitting EPA estimates in normal driving so I would say if there is any range reduction its 5% or less.

Yeah I have mixed feelings, I don't want to zap my range, but I also don't want to be getting unnecessary flats. My feeling today is to swap them, but probably I'll run them for a while regardless, time will tell.

Awesome, thanks for all the replys. The Hankook Dynapro ATs were stock on my 2015 Lariat FX4, I got 42k miles out of them. I'm now pleased I choose the AT tires. ErichKeane, thanks for pics, I can't wait to get my Smoked Quartz Lighting. I'm in San Diego and I've heard transit time can be 6-8 weeks.

I just took delivery today of my '23 Lariat, came with Hankook AT tires as well...I agree, not nearly as "AT" as I was expecting, but that is fine. My problem with them is that I live in Colorado and so far they seem to suck pretty badly in ice/snow. Anyone else have experience with them in these conditions? Guess I'll be buying a set of Blizzaks...

The ATs that came on my Alaska Lariat are OK in snow, but are not good on ice. They are no where near as good as the excellent Continental winter tires I put on my Mach E.
I will be putting better winter tires on the Lightning in the future.
