Falken Wildpeak A/T3W

Changed from Pirelli Scorpion AT plus to these. The difference is amazing. So much more grip on our "road", which is a 3km goat track down a mountain, which gets ultra slippery and muddy when it rains. Best AT tyres I have had under my Mitsubishi. Very happy. And they look good too.

My F350 was wandering so bad I took the Wildpeak AT3 off (spent $350 trying to find out what was wrong) after 3 months. The truck stopped wandering once I put the Michelin LTX on.

We drive on all sorts of roads including gravel and use the Land Rover for day-to-day, some longer trips and a bit of towing (such as boat trailers); I like the feel and balance of the tyre, with good comfort and low noise (even compared to earlier more road-biased tyres), and our fuel consumption has not worsened. I was slightly concerned that an all-terrain would feel clumsy and loud, but there are no downsides, and hopefully these Falkens will last longer and will be tougher (more puncture proof). Lastly, I'd add that these were very cost effective compared to the competition.

I've owned many brands, including cheap brands like Nangkank, but the Wildpeak completely convinced me in winter.
I've had Michelin tires before, which were very expensive, but the price-performance ratio can't compete with Falken.

I chose the P-Metric option for my vehicle because I don't do enough heavy towing or experience many sharp objects for my region with the off-roading conditions I experience to warrant the added weight and stiffness. Brand new these tires gripped dry road and gravel amazingly with minimal road noise. It existed, but it was a fairly quiet low hum/whistle that slowly increased with age and miles. Even when new, wet grip left a slight desire for improvement, same with snow, and especially with ice. I discovered this within the first 3 months/3,000mi of installing.

To be expected with going from a highway tire to an all-terrain, and increasing from 265/65/18 to 275/65/18 (an optional stock size), I found I lost about 3~4mpg on average between city and highway. These tires are significantly heavier than the previous tires and have a strong rolling resistance. My transmission temperature also on average began running 5~10º warmer.

As they have aged, dry grip has stayed fairly consistent, wet grip has decreased somewhat as expected, but snow/ice traction towards the end-of-life has fallen off significantly. I live in the northern Midwest where we frequently get heavy wet lake effect snow, it's a difficult substance to drive in no matter what but these tires struggled in it frequently enough that even additional weight over the drive axle did not do much to help and I utilize 4WD often. On average we end up with snow for roughly 4-5 months, starting as early as October and staying as long as March/April With the occasional exception even in May. Over the course of winter we will often receive daily daytime snow followed by nighttime sub-zero temperatures, as low as -25º. Anyone familiar with these conditions will tell you that salt no longer functions to melt the snow and ice, and that the heat from vehicles will bring the road just to the point of starting to melt, then after they drive off it will refreeze, repeatedly until it's an almost glass-smooth surface. Nothing is going to handle this well except the best snow tires, but these Wildpeaks were significantly worse than a highway biased tired at the same wear mileage.

What I have really noticed with these tires they do not like to be cold. I have seen as much as a 5psi swing from morning startup to mid-day driving. When cold at factory specified PSI I noticed for the first portion of driving that the tires have very noticeable flat spots, so much so my entire truck bounces driving down the road to a rhythm until they can be worked out. I also found over-inflating by 1-2lbs helps this as well as fuel consumption.

Overall I'm pretty disappointed in their performance compared to the glowing reviews they got over the years. If you live in a more arid climate I think these would be a pretty decent tire.

I’ve had these tires on a Ram 2500 6.7 diesel for a few years now and have been happy. Winter traction with this truck has always been challenging with so much torque and a light rear end, and the Falken has done well considering. I would buy again if the price was right. I do want to try the Mickey Thompson Baja Boss next and see how it is in the snow.

Scores are slightly skewed as these are the biggest tires we can fit on our 2.5 inch lifted Jeep JK 2 door. So these are big heavy tires on a small and relatively light vehicle (each tire's load rating nearly covers the entire vehicle weight).

Dry and wet are about the same, nothing terrible, but I have driven tires with better grip in both situations. The road feedback I knocked off some points just because of my particular setup. On a heavier larger vehicle I would expect it to be a point or two higher. Its pretty binary, you either dont feel the bumps and texture or you REALLY feel the bumps and texture. Handling also gets dinged harder due to the vehicle, you can feel the tires want to give up as they get pushed a bit at highway speeds. Again a heavier vehicle is likely to feel that less. The noise is about what you expect out of an AT tire, and as far as comfort goes, its better when I keep them at around 28-30 PSI on the road. By default the Jeep wants to see 37 PSI which is like driving on rocks. They do ok in the snow, but ice is pretty sketchy, especially on a short wheelbase vehicle.

Overall the tires have worn at less than expected rates (the advantage of a light small vehicle on these tires), and they are quite reasonable on road. They also handle the off road well enough for the trails we run (moderate difficulty in the rockies).

Running these under the requirement of an "all-season-off-road" tire. Because we live in a winter climate and drive on snow 5 months of the year (almost daily) in our area Snow/winter driving performance was a primary requirement. That alone meant the BFG wasn't going to be a top choice (mostly packed snow or under 2 feet of snow). Off road performance is more than adequate and feedback allows me to understand where the grip is when in low traction dry conditions as well as winter conditions.

shortly after having these installed we had a nice ice storm, trees and powerlines down everywhere. i figured well lets go out and see how the tires do? i was really amazed at the traction and surefootedness i felt driving around downed trees and powerlines. they did great. i normally like to try different tires but ill probably buy again.

I ran these on my Subaru Forester and they were great tires on and off road. I found their grip on gravel to be excellent and I was never able to not go somewhere I wanted. They were louder than a standard all season car tire, but that's to be expected and I didn't find them overly annoying. I live in BC near Whistler so I drove them lot's in wet road conditions, on gravel roads, deep and packed snow on road and off, and ice. I've alway run dedicated winter tires and this was my first time running an all weather through the winter. My take away was that, although these are great tires, they struggle in ice compared to winters and they left me stuck once in a particularly icy snowbank. I'll buy another set for 3 season driving, but this year I'll also be getting a set of dedicated winters.

Best tires I.ve had on my Dodge Ram and now putting them on my new truck

On a 2011 Ram 2500 4×4 tires are excellent on dry or wet pavement. On gravel, dry is excellent, wet they feel greasy don't seem to clear the mud fast enough, also wear down fast on gravel. Below average performance in snow and ice. Any more than a few centimeters of snow and they struggle, braking on ice is ok, do not have good traction for acceleration or lane control.

I have these on a LR Freelander 2, 2.2D. Done about 10,000 miles now, great on motorway (no more noisy than other tyre ) and country. Standing deep water no problem, ice and snow no problem, good on packed sand, excellent on mud. Will definitely buy these again. These also look great on a landrover, not the main reason for buying but a nice to have. I used to be a BFG die hard. These have won me over

Just bought 4 of these tires at Discount Tires for my 2020 Jeep Gladiator. They ride great and quiet. I recommend these tires. I go off road in sand soil.

It pulls when it gets into the ruts made by the semi trucks and it doesn't work in the snow. Gave them an 8 for wear but I sold them after 2000 miles.
