Falken Wildpeak A/T4W - 5,000 Mile Update

I'm not exaggerating when I say that these are the best tires I've ever had. #tires #offroad #trucks

[@craigversetti5700]

Got 43,638 on my Wildpeak 37's and still going STRONG !!!! Really impressed with these tires on & off road !!!!

[@tesladiesel2420]

33” M/Ts on my jeep. Haven’t really rotated as I should have.., that being said, still got 40k out of them… 😳.

[@its.j.crane.]

Same experience so far with my set on my Outback Wilderness. They are much more comfortable over small bumps, potholes, etc. Was surprised given the 3 ply design and warranty period. Size 235/65/17

[@memphis4539]

You have done alot of work on the this truck it looks awesome keep up the great video's..

[@numbr17]

Nice video! I just got these tires, and they are new enough that there is not a lot of real data on them yet. Your video, and the way you went about creating it, was exactly what I was looking for. I have a 4Runner with these tires in a 285mm wide size, and they seem great so far. Thanks for sharing this data!!

[@andyprice4696]

Small world. Couldn’t help but notice your Facebook name on the back of the truck. I’m in bowling green myself. Started following you originally when researching the RT01. Been looking at those for my Bronco. Haven’t pulled the trigger yet. Either gonna be the falken RT or the Toyo RT trail. Leaning towards the falken.

[@JR-ut1yx]

Nice truck, tires look great, interesting to see how the 4s work out for Falken

[@DM-tf6mk]

Truck looks great! Do you run those psi's you stated empty and loaded? Great video.

[@BayouToad]

Trucks looks good brother. I'm a huge Falken fan. Have a lifted Ram with 35x12.50 AT3W's and at 25,000 they look like they are just beginning to wear.......maybe....they may not wear at this rate.

[@dbriggs1689]

Good looking truck

[@Deatomizer]

Nice Truck.

[@diegotoledo7507]

I just ordered them today since the AT3W got discontinued. I’m getting them installed tomorrow

[@LoneStarNomads]

I had the AT3s on my F-150 and after they get about 50,000 miles on them I want to go ahead and got new ones. Unfortunately Falken tires were on back order back closer to like 2020 - 21. I got some nitto recon grapplers and I'm not really happy with them. I got the AT4's on our Bronco now and we have two or three thousand miles on them and so far we love them

[@josipdolic6391]

Good info thank you

[@lloydmarche7263]

I bought a set of these tires 3 years ago for my 2500 duramax. 30000 miles and really happy with them. I will buy again when I need tires.

[@JRs-guitars]

They didn't have these 3 years ago

[@lloydmarche7263]

@@JRs-guitars not much difference in the at3 and at4 . Same basic tire. Thanks for being an ass.

[@leemorgan9670]

I Agree with you on your BF Goodrich TAKO 2 opinion. What’s your take on the General Grabber ATX? I’ve got 50k on mine on a Super Duty and have loved them. Down to about 4-4.5 32nds. Down from 16 when new. Will be due for new ones again and contemplating something else or choosing General again.

[@jwatt95]

Really trying to decide between these or ko3s. Have Baja boss at currently and been phenomenal. Have 100k miles on them so far. Just want a load d instead of a e for my needs.

[@abrahamzayas133]

Awesome video! Compared to the Ridge grapplers which would you say is louder on highway use? Thanks

[@gvsukids]

Would your tire pressure be off if the tire wear is worse on the edge? The Falkin M/T are less fun in the rain than the A/T3W.

[@mikelangan2707]

What are the depths across the front tires? Are they the same?

[@robedmund9948]

Just put a new set of AT4Ws on my '93 XJ at the beginning of April. New KO2s on my '03 F150 in late January. I split my time between the two vehicles. It'll be interesting to see how each holds up. The KO2s are my third set since leaving Goodyear Wranglers. Typically get about 40-45 on the KO2s before they start getting noisy as hell. Time will tell, but so far, I really like both tires. New Michelin Cross Climate 2s on my wife's Camry. Got 50k on the first iteration of the Cross Climates. To be honest, the Michelins are better than either off-road tire in wet weather and are pretty dang good in snow. Just don't have the ground clearance on the car to really have fun in the snow.

[@saveamerica1343]

I have these on my gladiator and so far they are very smooth & quiet.

[@paulgordhamer3191]

What size are they? How was the MPG difference?Thanks.

[@Gurn-xh5fg]

The Japanese build pretty good tires.

[@Jassman3536]

Im at almost 50k on my AT3's..best tire I have owned to date on my all my trucks. I have 37 12.5 20's and wish they would make this size in the AT4's cause I am running out of tread.

[@TayschrennSedai]

I'm between these and the new KO3 for my 2012 F-250 farm truck. Sadly by 2012 fusion and 2017 forester also need new summer tires this year, so that's gonna suck. Not sure I'll put ATs on my fusion though 😂

[@rugerkampf]

Is your truck lifted/leveled

[@bstrickland4]

Did they decrease your gas mileage?

[@MendicantBias1]

Just got a set! 285/70/17 116T

[@MrKozanitis]

I’m looking to get a new set for my 2020 JGC TH. I have narrowed it down to either Mickey Thompson Baja Boss A/T or the Falken Wildpeak A/T4W. I do about 50-50 city/highway and (serious) off-roading here in the States. No winter use of my Jeep, so no snow as I’m in Europe then (with a different Jeep there). Any thoughts y’all? I’m indecisive here! TIA😊

[@tomcaldwell5914]

Flip a coin. Two great sets of tires.

[@MrKozanitis]

@@tomcaldwell5914 that’s what I thought! Thanks.

[@rlaracue]

Would you or will you try a set of the KO3s when they are out?

[@4-LOW]

I'm not a BFG fan. The KO and KO2 both were sub-par. Poor wear, poor traction, etc.

[@rlaracue]

@4-LOW I didn't like the ko2s but they were serviceable.

[@n2trkys18]

I’ve used kos and ko2s dating back to the 90s. I’ve never had any issues with poor wear or poor traction. That’s one everything from 2500hd diesels to 4Runners. BFGs are very hard to beat.

[@wildrosewoodcraft9559]

​@n2trkys18 I was ko2 for years til the falken came out with the at3 and at4. Sorry to say but falken beat them for me

[@007diego2]

Have you noticed any decrease or increase in gas mileage when compared to the A/T 3's? Thank you in advance.

[@scottlitton1987]

I just put a set on my 24 Canyon. Ditched the Goodyear Territory AT's.

[@deanc.5984]

[@OscyJack-]

[@joshualarkin747]

What offset are your wheels?

[@stevenrussell5937]

did falken pay you to make this video? I'm on the fence between open country RT's or these AT4W's

[@JRs-guitars]

OC RTs are good tires but I prefer the Wildpeaks as they're are better in the rain and snow.

[@charlesb4267]

In the next video you should show a method of how to remove paint overspray on a tire sidewall. I am fairly sure gasoline will remove it but that isn't the kindest to rubber, there are probably less aggressive compounds that can be used. Never tried liquid buffing compound other than on the wax type marker used to mark tires.

[@4-LOW]

I didn't mask off the tire because paint won't stick for long. The rubber releases the overspray naturally.

[@charlesb4267]

@@4-LOW Interesting, that has not been the same experience I have had if I didn't mask perfectly, also have seen purpose painted sidewalls in stripes to allow one to see the tire turning ( winter time with frozen brakes on a trailer ) and that paint just hung on. I would imagine it depends on the properties in the paint. On the other hand had they been worn out tires ... then it wouldn't matter in the least as the tires would hit the scrap tire pile. Masking tires is a total pain in the butt though, I'm sure you know all about that LOL.

[@wayneanderson991]

Have you noticed much of a difference in fuel economy with the A/T4W?

[@johnsierramusic]

I’ve noticed a 1-1.5mpg drop on a SMALLER tire.

[@wayneanderson991]

@@johnsierramusic It appears that a 7-10 percent loss in milage is about normal when going from a highway tire to an A/T tire on a truck.

[@4-LOW]

I lost 1 MPG... probably due to size

[@samazonprime3057]

In a standard size E rated 285/70/R17 these things weigh 10lbs more than KO3 and TOYO AT3 that’s 40lbs of extra rotational force and drag your trucks are trying to turn. Not only MPG is suffering. Your entire drive train and front end is suffering too. Sorry guys but I like lighter tires that do the exact same thing.

[@wayneanderson991]

@@samazonprime3057 I have noticed the same thing with the tire weights. I think I will be going with the new KO3's. I have an new F150 powerboost ordered and would like to maintain as much fuel economy as possible with my A/T tire selection. The A/T4W's look nice but very heavy and I'm sure very tough also.

[@carlosjaimes4141]

The extra silica makes them softer

[@TheOMEGANOX]

I’ve had my AT4W’s for about 3k miles now, just rotated today since it was oil change time. Truck is a 24 Silverado 3500 Duramax SRW, weighs 8k empty. I pull 20k with it getting my machine from site to site at least weekly. Last tires I had were Yokohama geolandar X-AT’s, the rears didn’t last 10k. I have to run the rears at 70psi or the truck throws a low pressure message, even at that psi the Yokohamas sidewalls would pooch out a bit with the full tongue weight. The AT4W’s don’t budge. That’s something I need when pulling close to triple the weight of the truck. Same goes for the stability in cornering, I run 60psi up front and they show very little flex under side load while supporting the weight of that Duramax. Another big deal for me is the ratio of off-road grip needed to rolling resistance and wear. I think these AT4W’s are probably the industry leaders in that regard, it’s a true AT but with RT grip, in fact I think the only reason anyone would choose the RT01’s over these is for a more aggressive look. All in all, I’m thinking these are the bees knees for my truck and my application. I know a lot of off-roaders were upset that they made a much beefier, heavier and stiffer tire than the AT3W’s but that’s exactly what I needed, before these came out I wouldn’t even consider the AT3W’s.

You need some wheelwell liners

That's not a "heavy duty" truck. It's not even a medium duty truck. It's a light duty class 2 truck.

[@noahd4039]

And I suppose you daily a semi? He said heavy duty pickup truck

[@Gurn-xh5fg]

@@noahd4039 My ex US Marine MARSOC Raiders 2007 Oshkosh MTVR AMK23 armored 6x6 gun truck is a heavy duty class 8 truck.

[@Gurn-xh5fg]

​@@noahd4039 Lol. Since you asked, my ex US Marine MARSOC Raiders 2007 Oshkosh MTVR AMK23 armored 6x6 gun truck IS a heavy duty class 8 truck. The tires are 53" tall. We look DOWN into 18-wheel tractor-trailer rigs on the interstate. I have to be careful at stop lights, because if I'm stopped behind a light-duty pickup like that F250, I might not even be able to see it, and I don't want to risk running over it accidentally when the light turns green. The MTVR is powered by a 732 cubic inch (12 liter) CAT intercooled turbodiesel with 1,550 foot-pounds of torque. You could put two "deuce and a half" 2-1/2 ton 6x6 trucks in the bed of our MTVR, and we'd still have several tons of payload capacity left over. You could load down a 5-ton 6x6 truck to it's maximum payload capacity by putting 10,000 pounds of stuff in it's bed, and then put the maxxed-out 5-ton 6x6 truck in the bed of our MTVR, and we still wouldn't be over our maximum GVWR.

[@4-LOW]

Why do Ram 2500s get Heavy Duty badges?

[@Gurn-xh5fg]

@4-LOW The same reason Ford puts "Super Duty" on their light-duty pickups- to get people to buy them. Light duty trucks are class 1, 2, and 3 trucks with GVWRs up to 14,000 pounds. Medium duty trucks are class 4, 5, and 6 trucks with GVWRs up to 26,000 pounds. Heavy duty trucks are class 7 and 8 trucks with GVWRs over 26,000 pounds. For example, my ex U.S. Marine MARSOC Raiders 2007 Oshkosh MTVR AMK23 armored 6x6 gun truck is a heavy duty class 8 truck with a GVWR of 62,200 pounds. The double-beadlocked runflat tires are 53" tall. The 732 cubic inch (12 liter) CAT intercooled turbodiesel has 1,550 foot-pounds of torque. We look DOWN into 18-wheel tractor-trailer rigs on the interstate. If I pull up at a stop light behind a light duty pickup like the one in this video, I may not be able to see it over my hood, so I have to remember it's there so I don't accidentally run over it when the light turns green.
