I have these on my Silverado, best tire I have ever owned on a truck!
How long have you had them? Seem cheap for a supposedly quality tire.
Hey,
Currently, have a 2017 Silverado with a slight lift. I'm looking to buy a new set of tires this fall. How are these tires holding up for you? Any experience with them in winter? I drive slightly offroad but mainly on the streets in summer and good amounts on snow in winter.
@@chazzl9920 Ive had the Wildpeaks for one month now. Love the look and ride. Fantastic tires! Havent taken them off road yet or encountered any rain or snow. Currently driving a 2015 Toyota Tacoma TRD Off Road 4x4. Now time to see how long they last.
@@chrisginoc Enjoy! if you find yourself back here down the road, I'd love an update!
Charles F. Leftridge IV I’ve got almost 35k on mine 2016 Chevy 2500HD. Excellent tire. Living in Alaska they work as a 4 season tire and have held up to all sorts of on road, off road, snow, ice, etc. Up here your lucky to get 3 years or 30 k miles before the tires are worn out, the weather and road conditions up here is hell on tires. Still have at least 15k miles left on them.
I have these 285/75/16 on my 1997 Land Cruiser and they are awesome. I'm in Minnesota and they are amazing in the snow.
I just bought these today and I work 3rd shift as security at a trucking depot. It’s like driving in the surface in the moon with many deep craters filled with water and it’s a mud/ sand/dirt lot and so for until tonight I had stock tires from Honda on my Honda Pilot. I was in the market for a more aggressive tire for work and to possibly get into some light to medium off roading and so far I’m very impressed I observed better handling in the freeway with just a slight hum from the tires that’s not noticed with music on a normal level these are great tires now to find a beginner trail In Ohio!
That's awesome Brian, we found great comfort in these wheels, thanks for sharing your experience
Put the Falken Wildpeak A/T 3W on my 2013 FJ ( 265 /70R17 /115T) several months back, and love them. Recently moved to Mountain area in SW VA so was happy to get the worn OEM Stock tires off (Bridgestone Dueler H/T- lasted only 32,000 miles) that came with the FJ and get something more substantial, and Snow Rated. I can feel these Falken's firmly planted on the road, even in heavy rain, which was not the case previously- and I had a few near hydro planing Scares. I'm not a Serious Off-Roader, but we do go on the back roads, which are gravel and dirt, and can have some serious 4WD sections here and there. I like being able to travel both comfortably on the Highway, drive the backroads, and do some occasional off-roading. And they are Certified "Snow Rated " ( Three Peak Mountain Snowflake Symbol on the sidewall), which is a Big Asset, since it does snow here and the snow can get fairly deep. They were nicely priced at $142 Amazon Prime. When New they do pick up gravel as any tire with big gaps will, especially until broken in some- so that's my only Head's Up ( I keep a bamboo chopstick handy to flip gravel out before getting on the Highway). Love the versatility of them being Year-Round tires, and the robust design. I do like the deep tread, and sidewalls with "tread" to help prevent sidewall punctures & tears when driving the rougher terrain. If you "air down" your tires when Off Roading or in Sand, etc. the side tread should help protect. Would highly recommend, especially for anyone else that is on a Budget but wants the Best tire for the Money!
This video couldn't have come at a better time. Need new tires this next week, appreciate the review as I've been looking for this size.
I like these. Last year they were much cheaper than a KO2 in my area. Now they are more expensive. No point in switching to them now.
Same thing I’m seeing in the popular 275/65R20 size; these are $5-$10/tire more than the KO2. Not that it’s that large of an increase, but these things seem to be getting more expensive as they grow in popularity.
Wildpeaks are great in the rain and snow on my lifted fj cruiser. I have 61k on my set which will be replaced in a week or so.
Are they E or P rated?
Can only say from the 5000 miles I have put on my set of Falkens. The are QUIET and comfortable. They are as responsive on city streets as they are up at 13,000ft off roading caterpillar style! Just had my first rotation.... and they look just great!! Have been off roading for over 20 years, and these tires meet and exceed my expectations (2007 Sequoia)
These quickly have become some of our favorite tires to run for these exact reasons
@@stage3motorsports Nice...... best to ya. Just super pleased.
What was the difference in fuel economy from the factory Michelin's to to Falken AT3W?
Just got these on my stock v6 4x4 crew cab Tacoma sr5 2018 and they look so great! Definitely losing a few mpg but worth it! Drives much sturdier and stronger compared to highway tires
These are a great upgrade from stock highway tires, great choice Tim!
Tim Blakemore did you do 275/70r16?
Was debating these for over a year and finally bought it. Thanks for the review. Def helped out a lot. Do Toyo Open Country A/T and Nitto G2 Grappler next.
Thanks Dave! Check out our Tire Review playlist, we've actually done reviews on both of those tires in the past!
Second comment: what you do have in that Phoenix area are the nastiest, sharpest rock I've seen out side of the lava rock in S.E. Idaho. If a tire works in these two areas, they are good tires indeed!
A great tire that does it all, and does it well - something I am unable to say about any other tire. And it is nice to save money when buying the best option for your rig. There are few such stellar deals in today's world...
We really felt the same way about this tire it's a great option.
This fall we’re putting Wildpeaks on our Outback. The factory tires will need to be replaced by then.
We get 4-5 feet of snow every winter live on a private road that we have to plow and maintain. The county road is one of the last roads that the county plows, so winter driving can be a challenge until we get back into town which is 5 miles away.
If you want something a little less aggressive that is more in line with Subarus, check out Falken's A/T Trail tire. That is going on our Crosstrek soon
@@ejhayes76 I’ve thought about the Trail tires, but we need tires for year around use. In other words we need tires that will last a very long time.
Great review. Appreciate the opinion on ATs vs MTs. Now I need to look into the leveling kit you referenced.
I live there and you can do that easy with highway tires
Davonte Martin I do it atleast once a month in my truck with Yokohama geolander H/T tires whenever we go fishing at pleasant.
Was it "pretty sketched"? Lol
I have the exact same size on my Titan. Super impressed with this tire. Super comfy ride with no road noise! And, they were $70 a tire cheaper than the KO2. Very pleased with the purchase.
Did you like them the whole time you had them?
Just bought these for the Dodge Ram Outdoorsman I drive. Tires have made a huge difference vs. OEM Goodyears that were on the truck. Looking forward to seeing how they handle northern Ontario winter (snow and ice). Cheers.
We'd love to hear your experience one winter is all done!
What's the difference in fuel mileage? I do highway an city driving most of the year, but for four months its offroad at least 3 or 4 times a week to go hunting. Looking at dirt roads, light mud, wet grass...ect.
I ordered these for my 2018 Jeep Wrangler with no lift. Waiting to get them this week.
These tires are awesome. I have them in lt 285/75/17 on method wheels and I've put almost 20k miles on them so far and they still look new! Ride quality is great and I haven't rotated them like I should have and the still wear perfectly even.
Hi, did you pit these on an F150? I am about to try these same size tires on Method Wheels with a zero offset. I have a level kit and wondering if you had any issues with rubbing.
@@willgraham8862 yep on a 09-14 body style leveled with Bilstein 5100 shocks which I believe provide 2.75” of lift in the front. I had to do minor trimming on the plastic liner in front of the tire and a little on the inside of the flare behind the tire. Nothing major. I am on 315/70r17s now which needs a bit more trimming but they do fit.
I have 265/70r17 on my 2019 Ranger XL FX4, BDS leveling kit and stock charcoal Lariat wheels . It came with 265/65r17 Dynapro atm tires and they did great in the snow . The Falken tires do great in the snow too. I but the Dynapro tires on n my wife’s 2020 Jeep GC Laredo for winter tires . Im getting ready for some over landing trips in the mountains Wv and we’ll see about offroad use !! Great tires !!
Just put them on my 2019 Ram 2500 and they are excellent.
How much of a decrease in fuel economy have you seen? I put these on a Nissan Titan Pro-4X and i saw a very significant decrease in fuel mileage (4-5 mpg), especially on the interstate, but then found out the vehicle had some timing chain issues about 6mo later so that could have been a contributing factor. I now have a 2018 Ram 3500 SRW Diesel and need some new tires since i tow a travel trailer and the factory tires are not wearing well.
Will this fit a stock 2015 Ford Lariat without level or lift?
Thank you! I am going to install these on my Dodge Ram 1500. Looking forward to seeing how they handle with East coast driving conditions.
Thanks John we'd love to hear what you think after getting them installed and driving for awhile!
Well I think this made up my mind on tires for the new Power Wagon. Need something all weather conditions for on and off-road use
Just bought some today on eBay, great deal. I’m happy they look nice on my Tahoe
Did u get lt or p rating
Love the video. I’m looking for someone with these tires in this size. LT275/70R18. I really didn’t want the LT tires because Falkon says the non LT are a softer compound and better for wet and snow. I live in upstate ny and snow performance is big for me. So my question is are the LT still good in the snow?
These tires are great , especially in winter conditions, snow ice
I love mine so far, I have installed these on my Hilux and so far it holds very well in wet and dry conditions. only had them for 5 days tho.. I would have to see how to ride like 3 months later.
It's been 3 months now. How's it going?
@@timmay556 yo man, still the same, did some mudding and they worked well, honestly, they are still holding the road very well even in wet conditions and of course dry conditions. I have recommended them to some of my friends with 4x4s and one of them bought them and he's happy as well with the performance.
Hopefully u see this but r u using the 10 ply or the 4 ply?
Got the same truck and wheels, except ours is equipped with the 2.7 and it's a 4x2. We're in TX and I use the truck to haul my bikes, so adverse weather is not much of a concern, but I did get stuck on my previous 2015 (4x2 as well) while living in VA, once on a foot of snow, and another on deep mud I failed to see on a shoulder trying to make a U-turn. This tire might have helped me in those two previous situations, so I'll definitely consider them at the time of swapping the stock ones. What size tire can I get away with the stock suspension and without spacers?
You're probably going to want to stick to something close to a 32x11" to avoid rub. Something like a 285/65R18, or 275/65R18
Stage 3 Motorsports awesome, thanks!
I can’t believe you got stuck twice, and still opted for a 4x2, instead of a 4x4.
Best tire , feels, looks, performance
Youre on crack. They suck on wet surfaces and they're noisy. Not bad loud but you'll hear them in the cab.
Should change gear ratio? I believe it one inch bigger than stock tire.
Did you have to put a lift or leveling kit in to put that size on your f-150
Alright I'm buying these, thanks for info! Very affordable at discount right now.
That's what we're here for!
Any idea how they compare noise wise to say Toyo Open Country AT2s? Noticeably louder, same, or negligible? Thanks
I’m stuck between this and the newer general grabber atx
These are some of our favorite tires Joe, we haven't gotten the chance the test the General Grabber ATX's just yet.
@@stage3motorsports grabber x3 review on the way???
I purchased 4 from Walmart. 3/4 were horribly out of round. Huge waste of time. I wish I had confidence in them to buy another set however 3/4 bad tires seems extremely skeptical
Curious how these tires affect MPG's vs the tires that came on this Truck stock? Did MPG's take a hit?
We didn't track to see the MPG change, we also added a leveling kit when we upgraded to these tires which would affect the MPG.
I loved these so much on my 1985 toyota pickup that I bought stock in the company Sumitomo! SSUMI
Don't need a leveling kit for 275 70 18s. They are less than 11 inches wide. Ford wheel wells are enormous. Save the trouble of premature tire wear from permanent camber screw uppery on an IFS.
I had that question. I have an 18 f150 4x2 and was wondering what size tire I could fit. I'm planning on going from the ugly stock 20's to 18's. The 275/55R20's seem like they almost rub.
Thanks for the information.
How many psi are these?
Stage 3 Motorsports, please compare these to the new Toyo Open Country ATIII. Thank you!
Love the 275/70r18 size becuase it looks good especially for the price. Do they run skinny or short?
Neither. They are tall for size, 33.4" vs the 33.2" standard for 275/70 r18. 17/32 tread depth, more akin to a duratrac than any other A/T. As is the case with all tires, to get the full tread depth, it needs to be LT rated. This size only comes in LT though, so you should be fine.
@@BeanoNoir is the Lt heavier tire than at and smoother ride,?
Please review the General AT/X
I second that; looks like a great option. Curious to see if there’s any advantage to the K02 other than price.
@@Icutmetal im looking at both and first thing i notice is new the general is 16/32 tread depth.. wildpeak is 19/32. I had the wildpeaks before and was very impressed
I recently purchased a 2021 F-150 Lariat. I have been told about these tires from others and I want to replace the factory tires with these however is getting a leveling kit a necessary step for these tires? The factory rim I have is 20 vs 18.
should fit with no issues. it will just depend on the offset of the wheels at that point.
I just got a set of tires. 295 70 18 a bit bigger that my stock
could you let me know some of the places you did the off road shots near lake pleasant? thanks
Great down to earth review!
Thanks Paul! We try to stay as honest and authentic as possible
I have f150 like this. Rwd but the rims like this. Do i need to level up before i buy this tire? Pls help me out
You should be to fit this tire without adding a leveling kit
Stage 3 Motorsports can you pls tell me how?
Can you tell me if these are directional tires. I just had 4 put on my jeep liberty. On the passenger side the upper sidewall tread has the longer edge facing toward the rear. Now on the driver side the upper sidewall tread has the longer edge is facing toward the front . Seems wrong to me. Does this matter. I can't find nothing saying they are directional tires.
They aren't directional tires. The wall letters are just different. Pretty much it's your choice if you want raised lettering or low lettering on the walls.
what about tires on a wrangler LT245 / 75 R16
I'm going to stop by to stage3 soon to get my truck lift and new tires and rims
Phil while we'd love to help you get the parts your truck will need we don't have a full service garage, if you're in the Phoenix area though we can recommend our guy to you!
Sounds good
Debating between the Falken Wildpeak AT3W and the GoodYear Wrangler DuraTracs in a 275 60 R20 size on a 2011 Dodge Ram Outdoorsman....what ply are the Falkens? Living in Nebraska, we get pretty intense winters, so leaning towards the GoodYears, but open to someone changing my mind
Duratracs are good buy once they hit half tread life they are horrible in everything. I prefer k02 but am gonna try these falkens once my tires wear off
Did you use a wheel spacer with this setup
It would be a better video if you can play the sound of the tire on highway
Thanks for the feedback Ricardo, While these are pretty quite in the cab, we'll keep this in mind for future review videos!
Stage 3 Motorsports thanks!
@stage3motorsports. I have a 2018 xlt 4x2. Do you know if LT285/70/18 will fit without rubbing on a 2.5inch leveling kit? Will I need wheel spacers like the one you have? Thanks in advance.
I mean LT295/70/18. Thanks
Your stars are retreating
In the video you all mentioned you had Bora wheel spacers on that truck. Just out of curiosity what size are they?
We used Bora 1.5" wheel spacers on this truck www.stage3motorsports.com/BORA-15F1501-50X4-2015-F150-BORA-6x135mm-1-50-Wheel-Spacers-Four.html
Looks great but wondering it needs regear?
Any time tire size goes up, gearing should change. That’s a should you vs. will you situation. Some vehicles are more tolerant than others of oversized tires, for sure.
How are they In beach sand?
Hey guys I have this exact same truck with the V8 and this tire is on my short list. What kinda MPG you guys getting?
Johnny Noland
You have a 2018 5.0? Do you happen to tow much with your truck?
cheeznhard yes I have the v8 2018 4WD and at the moment I don't tow at all. But in the future I will prob do occasional towing of a trailer/toy hauler maybe 3x a year.
Johnny Noland I have these tires and they’re fantastic and got them for $230 a tire in 305/55/r20. They handled great towing a 26ft trailer more than 1k miles through rain, sleet, snow, and ice.
I work at the plant in tonawanda, where we are making this. Model in the USA. These are excellent tires!! I’m putting them on my Silverado, my dad has them on his and loves them. So do a lot of guys I work with and they aren’t disappointed one bit!.
Brendan Erhardt what size did you put on your Silverado? Im looking to upgrade my stock SRA's on mine and wondering if i should stick with the original 265/65/18
Leveling kit is unnecessary for 275/70 R18. I have that size on stock, 33.4 inch. Save the wear on your cv and ball joints.
Is that size 10 ply though dont want that there limited in sizes for 18 inch half ton
Good video! Will these fit a stock 2019 Cherokee Trailhawk?
If you buy the right size
Is that the stock offset or is there a spacer in?
There is a 1.5" wheel spacer from Bora click the link to check it out www.stage3motorsports.com/BORA-15F1501-50X4-2015-F150-BORA-6x135mm-1-50-Wheel-Spacers-Four.html
I'm heavily considering this as my next tire on my '16 f150. It's down to these or the Toyo AT. This truck looks great as far as ride height and stance. What sort of lift/level does it have, or is that all stock but with the 275/70/18 tire!
This truck has a ReadyLift 2.25" leveling kit installed on it to help clear the 275/70/18's
My dad has owned both, he likes the Falkens over the Toyo tires. Cheaper tire that performs just as good if not better. I am putting some of these on my 4runner at the end of the month during a labor day sale.
Will that spec fit on a stock ranger? 275/70/18
Not without a level and perhaps crash bar mods at that size.
What level kit are you running? Any clearance issues with your setup?
We have a ReadyLift 2.25" spacer leveling kit installed and dont have any issues with clearance
What load rang u run?
Do i need the wheel spacers for is tires? I have the same truck same rims
No you do not need the wheel spacers for this to fit.
Stage 3 Motorsports so i just do the leveling my truck and then put the tire on?
@@brianle7553 That's it Brian
I just want to know if they are quite on the freeway
They are quiet on the highway.
@@stage3motorsports thanks. .y taco needs new tires and these goodyears i had are trash. You can hear them over the radio
@@RCKYOTA Yikes, upgrading to these will be great for the ears an the taco!
@@RCKYOTA what kind of goodyears did u have
@@jamessammann9183 duratracs
What is the loadrating of the 275/70/R18 these WildPeak the reason I ask it because I tow a 13,000 lbs. 5th wheel and I need the support of a good tire while towing?
Go to the actual website dumbass
@@bigoneish Wow, no problem.
Is this tire any good on the snow ?
These are great in the snow, if you're looking to go offroad in deep snow you'll want to look for a mud terrain
I wonder how these would fair against my K02 tires on my Raptor?
A lot of people are buying these now instead of K02's because the perform just as well, just as quiet and cost a lot less.
Nice! I will probably put my order in for these tires here in a few weeks!
Do you guys have a install shop in Phoenix?
We don't JC
Stage 3 Motorsports okay, thanks. Any recommendations for a PHX area shop to install a leveling/lift kit?
It good for highway too?
It is! great on and off-road
@@stage3motorsports falken wildpeak at3w in malaysia..it made in thailand.. it original or clone? Bcoz i hear some rumor there few company make clone for this tyre..
What leveling kit are you guys running?
This is a ready lift spacer leveling kit learn more about this setup in the link - www.stage3motorsports.com/stage-3s-2018-f150-5-0l-budget-builds-2000-budget.html
Bilstein makes a nice adjustable shock for leveling out pickups.
@@Brokenatoms Best of the best
How is it on highway?
These are great on the Highway!
Will 275/70/18 fit a stock 2018 4x4 Screw?
You would need a lift/leveling kit in order for the tire to completely clear the fenders. We had the 275/70/18's on our 2018 with stock wheels running a ReadyLift 2.25" front leveling kit and we cleared fine
I have a stock 2016 FX4 and have BFG KO2 275/70/18 with no rubbing at all I did have to trim Weathertech mudflaps but not other rubbing at all. Hey Stage 3 if I go with Bilstein will that give me a better ride than a leve??
A Bilstein leveled strut will give better a ride than a spacer kit on a stock coilover in my opinion
Whoa
Totally a commercial for a brand. No personal review... Just a sales pitch... Must not have made the Super Bowl listing... Disappointing...
Found the only mud within 300 miles
Tread depth looks low, even for AT tire.
Josh Gonzalez it’s definitely not, it’s more aggressive then some of the other AT tires out there. I do agree pictures make it look less aggressive, but in person they’re very aggressive looking
Falkan says they are the they deepest tread in its class
Noah Costine I don’t think it is. Toyo open country AT, and Goodyear duratrac have more.
@@joshgonzalez2112 I don't doubt that, I was just saying what it says on the website
Those rims look bigger than 18s
These SUCK on Ice. Good on dirt road, average in mud & snow but no good on ice.
Unfortunately we haven't gotten a chance to test these tires on icy roads living here in the desert but thanks for the feedback on your experiences!
No tire is good on ice fool
If you need winter snow and ice traction, get a dedicated snow tire. A real snow tire will run circles around an A/T tire with the 3 Peak rating.
Hope you have another truck so you won't have to walk
Too bad you can't really report on snow&ice performance when you look at tires. Not the same as rain, at all.Your area of Arizona is way to hot for me. I have been there alot, visiting my kids.
Steve Wilson I have these tires and live in northern Utah. They are fantastic in snow and Ice. I am seeing these more and more on vehicles of all sizes here. The load ratings are great for HD trucks as well
I have these in 285/70/17 and they bite into snow really well.
You're right it's tough to report on snow and ice in Phoenix, but our annual trip to Flagstaff in the winter months normally gives us a few days to put our trucks through the paces in winter conditions.
TK BRAYER Good to hear, seeing as though I want these on my Silverado 2500 HD up here this winter in Maine!
They’re so very very well in snow and ice. Can confirm this living in Maine.
Hope you're not selling those shirts. The flag is backwards.
Thats how its supposed to be. Like if it was blowing in the wind as if you were carrying it.
@@bigoneish No, it's backwards. It's supposed to be facing as if you're moving *forward* and the wind is blowing it back. The one on the shirt is blowing as if he's retreating backwards. I was Airborne Infantry.
my wifes prius with snow tires has seen more off road trails than this guys truck has.
This was an early stage of our 2018 F150 budget build, this truck has now offroaded in the deserts of phoenix, the trails of moab and the high mountains of Utah. I don't think your wife's Prius can keep up.
A lot of random dudes have seen the inside of your wife's Prius too...
I think your wife has seen a lot of guys trucks backseat more than you’ve seen hers buddy.
Great video - What do you think about the Falken AT3 WA (not AT3W) review: ua-cam.com/video/rhyzUssXo-Q/v-deo.html
When you are learning to drive off road as a baby then you drive a Ford 150. Then grow up to a Ram 2500.
You don't have to have a leveling kit to run 33's. Plus they look stupid. A truck should have a truck stance!
Going anywhere in a Ford gets skechty
Yes cause then you have no excuse why you could not make it.. drive a Chevy or a Dodge and no one expects you to arrive.
Both Chevy trucks I owned were junk.
I got a 2000 Ford Expedition...when it hits 2 million miles I might not arrive.
Tard
Came here for a review, but after i heard “sketch” I left. Nice try Pavement princess.
Whoa chill out Chad. Someone is mad they drive a princess taking their girlfriend to the beauty salon and back staying on the blacktop. Lol
lol... 18" and "offroad"
