Yes, but let's be honest, you are trading every day ride quality for that. So if you are the type to actually go offroad with sharp rocks regularly, probably worth it. But if not (like 90% of the people who own 4runners) C load in a KO3 or AT tire is going to be more than enough tire. SL is probably fine for the vast majority of 4runner owners. It is a subjective decision for sure. Just my 2 cents as a person who has like 300k miles on BFG KOs in my life starting with the OGs on my Xterra in 2006. I was also at the Launch event of the Ko2 in Baja, and another BFG event on the Rubicon trail. I have seen these tires abused in the harshest possible conditions and they are tough as hell but there is a trade off for that.

On road with the side walls being stronger, you don't experience as much sidewall flex in an E Range Tire that you'd experience with a C Range tire. Find yourself in an evasive maneuver and you might rethink feeling a little more harshness. Also consider the 4Runner is body on frame construction. For a car like ride, you might consider a Highlander. I have a Land Cruiser with Toyo OC-AT3 275/70/18 E Range that ride great. I also have Dobinsons 3 ways set on the lower side of firm with a mild level./lift. I mostly drive country lanes, narrow state back roads and the Freeway. I've also driven Defenders and Rovers along with HD Pickup and Commercial vehicles over time. I think there a lot of people that have graduated from lighter cars to a truck without completely understanding what a truck is and how they behave and ride.
