for anyone who is wondering: this is the Falken Wildpeak A/T Trail
Thanks. Wildpeak is their all terrain series.
Falken make amazing tires, can’t go wrong with any of their offerings.
I have these on my 2019 honda pilot. Love them. ❤❤
@OffGridAdventure I up-sized my tires to 265/60R18. Its tight, but they fit without rubbing and look a little more aggressive. Rides smoother and gained about 1/2" ground clearance. Only downside is the speedometer reads on the slow side (compared to GPS) by about 2mph at 70mph.
I'm getting the Falken Wildpeak HT02 tires for my RAM truck soon. I've always used Goodyear Wrangler SR-A tires and have had great luck with them but those Falken tires got my attention well.
I'm going to install 4 of these on my wife's 2020 Ridgeline, I'll have to see how these work in Central Wisconsin this winter 😁🇺🇸👍
My Suboverland came with Wildpeak tires. At first I wasn't sure about them because I had my heart set on US-made tires. They have definitely been high performers, though. I have had to engage my 4-wheel-drive, but that was in an extreme circumstance where I was trying to release my vehicle from very thickly built-up ice and snow.
Dude I love those tires, I bought them for my 04 Nissan Xterra and they haven't given me issues yet (still have great tread). In the snow/rain it sticks to the road, I've never hydroplaned or skid out. Hell offroading I've never been stuck yet, and I'm stock ride height. Yeah Falken Wildpeaks rock!
I didn’t realize how long they would last until recently. Still plenty of tread.
I had the Wild Peak all terrain tires on my previous SUV. They handled well on gravel and sand. They were a little loud, but well worth it. I need to get some for my minivan.
I haven’t noticed any difference in sound, but it wouldn’t surprise me if they are a little louder.
A little? No they are loud imo .
I'm using for my Sx4 and ASX, I didn't notice any different on tyres noise .
My friend has this on his subaru and I absolutely left him. I had the crossclimate 2's in my Subaru.
I just replaced my Goodyears m+s tires with the Falkans. I have a 2010 ranger fx4 and these tires are awesome. Less road noise, 10psi higher rating, grip the road like suction cups. I work snow removal and I have to go through steep inclines on winding roads through snow, slush and ice to get to my site. I already have more confidence in these tires and probably never going back to Goodyears.
Just got my wile peaks for my 2014 Forester for 800$ cant wait to take them in the snow this weekend
I have jeep Cherokee and have odd tire size any help? 235/50/r19
I'm doing a van build out on a 2020 Transit T-250 High Roof Extended. Current weight at 85% completion is around 8150lbs. Just cut out my wheel wells last weekend, tomorrow I get my Black Rhino Arsenals and Wildpeak AT3W 245/75R16 installed. Have a Van Compass TOPO 2.0 stage 4 suspension, so these tires should do the job. Final weight should be close to the stock GVWR at 9070lbs. Can't wait to get on the road...
That’s awesome! Congrats on getting close to completion. I just put these on my minivan camper and like the ride compared to regular road tires.
I don't do much with snow, but I think these will work great on my Outback for some muddy or sandy trails, and the few times I'm in snow.
Another thing I didn’t really talk about is that these tires work decently in dry and hot conditions. So, they’re a good all round tire option.
@Off Grid Adventure I went with them, wrapped around Sparco Terras. Tested them in a dry desert wash, lots of loose gravel and dirt, even a small stream crossing. I also took it a good ways up a 22° incline. So far I like them a lot, looking forward to seeing how they do in snow this winter.
I want to get those tire or similar on an all wheel drive Sienna. I would not plan on spending much time in the snow. It would be more for making sure I do not get stuck on a muddy state park dirt road kind of thing. I would love for you to do a test drive and video of the 2022 or 2023 Sienna XLE Woodland Edition. I do not know much about it yet. I believe it has a little more ground clearance, a built in inverter with a 110 plug in. I couldn't really afford one, at least I wouldnt want to do a lot of things to it while it was still under the full warrenty.
I will put these on my Sienna next time I get tires. The current ones are cheap, but still have quite a bit of tread.
Great review, ill get the same tires
Nice! Enjoy.
Good review.
Glad you think so!
I have them on my Tahoe, great traction, a little more noisy and rougher ride
What would you recommend for 2015 Ford F150 Lariet 4x4 4 door. I need something that is going to get me high mileage and handles great in inclement weather especially the rain?
I’ve had the wildpeak at3w-A’s (less aggressive than the at3w’s) on my tundra and they’ve been great. Good on gas mileage, and great in rain and snow.
@@HarryParratestis Thank you so much😊❤️
I bought my last set of tires.
I’ve seen three places of manufacture. Japan, Thailand, and China. A noticeable decrease in quality of Chinese made tires. The other two are good quality. While these are good tires, I personally prefer the Yokohama G015 for a light off road tire. Also note that the Wildpeak (and the G015 to a lesser extent) will drop your MPG by 1-3 or so. For people that really off road that’s not unexpected but for a daily driver, you’ll pay more for fuel. YRMV
Cheers
I'm looking at getting these for my Pilot. I'm worried about the noise they might create. Have noticed these being louder compared to the OEM tires?
My cousin has them on her Jeep Compass and she never says a word about the noise. Go ahead and buy them, and don't worry about it. And by the way, she lives in South Dakota where they have blizzards and tons of snow, and they are amazing in the snow.
I have these on my 2020 forester and had the AT3W on an 08 escape before. TBH, the sound of the tires is nothing compared to wind from driving down the highway. The sound from the tires has never been bothersome nor dare I say noticeable.
is this EV compatible ? , I want to replace my volkswagen ID.4 AWD with this tire
I imagine you can put them on anything that is the right size. Might take a hit with the EV efficiency.
How is the road noise with these?
I haven’t noticed anything. I expected to hear something, but nothing yet.
@@OffGridAdventure that's nice, thanks
Great review!!! I am working on a review at the moment (battery booster/ promaster from Canadian tire) 🚐🎥 your videos are really good! I am taking notes… 📝😂👍👌 much love from the Venturra Mobile 🍁
Right on. Did you post your results yet?
Are these the P-Rated ones?
Hi, this link has the exact details of my tires: amzn.to/3fta2GX let me know if this helps answer your question.
What is tyre size ???
I don’t recall exactly. But, they are the OEM size.
These tires are 13/32 new, always have been.
Can't wait to sell my kidney for this to put on my pilot I'm so excited
Just make sure it’s the smaller one.
@@OffGridAdventure too late i gave up both they included a full size spare
@@idkwhtimduin🤣🤣
Bro.... The 3PMSF symbol means they are severe snow service rated tires. Making them objectively and literally....snow rated tires. It means the tires are tested to a very specific standard for snow service.
No
I think that tires is at tires not at3
It looks like you are correct. Thanks for pointing it out!
Now cost over $300/each fir my Silverado
That’s expensive, how does it compare to other tire prices?
@@OffGridAdventure All brand name tires in 20 inch are $290-350 each
$228 on Walmart for 20's
Snow not deep enough for a proper snow test
What the proper depth?
@@OffGridAdventure Here in northern canada we can get 32" of snow and driving out to the ice shack accross the lake can be challenging,driving on packed snow thats only a few inches deep is not the best indicator of snow performance.
@@donaldotsig6818 I’ll let you know when I get a tracked vehicle that will plow through 32” powder.
@@donaldotsig6818p packed snow is practically ice and it’s very much a good test depth. No tire test is going to use 32” of snow. That’s ridiculous
Correction they are a snow tire. Yes they are rated for snow and mud. Thats why there great in the snow..just saying.
It’s a strange rating with the three peak mountain snowflake indicating that they are snow tires. But, a true purpose s ow tire will perform better in the snow than these.
@Off Grid Adventure Not by much and a true snow tire won't preform better then these on the highway with Falkens you get all three choices and the falkens are competitively priced they can handle more weight on them plus they air up to 80lb they also are one of the coolest temp running tires on the market. They also have a stronger side wall an extra 1/8th of an inch of protection and a true snow tire is as loud as hell on the highway the falkens are super quiet plus unless you live in snow country why would anyone want a dedicated snow tire only to replace come spring time better off running an A/T tire but the best reason to run the Falkens you'll get 70K miles out of them I've gotten 90K if you rotate every 5K miles. They out preform most tires. I've yet to get less then 70K miles on them and with the price of tires these days it's the right choice in my book but that's just me. If you can afford to I see alot of people with two sets of tires they run A/T and M/T but not me one set at a time maybe if I had the room to put 4 more big ass tires and rims I might but dought it.
@@bigguy1403 awesome info. I just put some on my minivan.
There is more to a snow tire than just the tread pattern. A true snow tire will also be made of a softer compound, which means it wears out quicker on dry roads. Most dedicated snow tires will also accommodate studs.
Running studded snow tires in the winter and all season or all terrains the rest of the year is very common around here.
@wvjeepguy81 yes I agree I used to live in NY C and we got tons of snow I remember doing the studs in the tires wow that brought back memories thank you for the information.
I’ve been told they’re good…….but overhyped. Toyo might be better then wildpeaks.
That is not snow…. That is a plowed road
Now you need to upgrade your vehicle to a nicer-looking American-made vehicle
Here it is: ua-cam.com/video/vjPcujF9Xpk/v-deo.html
Buy a Subaru
Subaru is a highly overrated brand.
@@kevinwest1607 because they are really good in the snow and rain. They are also reliable, affordable, safe, spacious, great vehicle to add on your hiking or snowboarding gears, etc.
Falken are the western equivalent to nankings.... avoid unless you wanna drive sideways
Sounds like you had a bad experience with them. What happened?
@@OffGridAdventure i put falkens on the backwheels of my bmw m3, needless to say in normal cool weather and the road really dry, it was like i was driving on ice
I also had a bad experience with Falkens about 20 years ago, also on a bmw, but they were street tires and the issue was was wear. Discount Tire replaced them for free. I think at the time Falken was new to the market and had a lot to learn. But I am now giving serious consideration to the Wild Peaks on an LX 570. I would not use the m3 driver’s experience to judge an all terrain tire.
winter = only studded winter tires
