Simple Question: Falken WP or KO3's for smoothest ride?

Getting new rubber on my rig.
Going with 265/70/18s.
Narrowed down to: Falken WP A/T4 - or - BF Goodrich KO3.


Have run the Falkens on my 4Runner and like them. Any reason to switch to KO3?
Thanks in advance for your humble opinions!
Have run both of those and found the Toyo AT3 the quietest
 
Pictures please? What size?
265s. This is the only photo I have at the moment.

The Falcons look great. My concern is about the weight. 15lbs heavier than the Toyos in the size I'm looking at. I want the C rating, which limits choices.

Someone pointed out in another thread that tire weight matters matters less with a hybrid, as the additional rotational ebergy is partially recaptured. I thought that was a good insight. But a 65 lb tires still makes for a 100 lb wheel.

Something to consider is the Falken Wildpeaks have a history of dry rot issues. There was a recall for a small batch of tires but not sure if they have fixed the issue with dry rot yet. It appears they use a rubber that dries out and cracks within a few years
