Wow they have worn well! Great review. Very detailed and informative. I just purchased these for my wife's Toyota Venza. 245 50 20 inch and they performed great after our first nasty snow storm this October, very icy. So far so good. I'm happy that at 46,000 miles you still have lots of tread life. Thats really good actually. I'm going to get these for my 3/4-ton Duramax when it needs new skins. Thanks for sharing.
My Wildpeaks only lasted 30,000 miles on my F150 and I frequently checked their pressure and rotated them every 3500-5000 miles. They were at 3/32s when I got rid of them. I didn't go through the warranty process because they only give you a percentage of the cost according to how much tread you have left. You also have to send them in for inspection and provide documents of alignments and rotations. I rotated them myself a few times so I didn't want to go through the hassle. I liked these so much in the beginning that I bought them for my Jeep wrangler and they are also wearing quickly. I bought the SL load rating since a 1/2 ton doesn't really need an LT. I'm sure the LT would have lasted a little longer since it comes with a deeper tread depth, but the extra weight will cost you mpgs and it will ride rougher.
Hey thanks for the feedback, I kind of assumed the SL loads would wear faster being a different tread compound and ply rating. But you’re right the LT tires are much heavier!
I have them on my Mitsubishi Pajero in 265/65R17 for winter time and am very happy with them, price was really good. Glad they last for long. Thanks for sharing this.
Thanks for these updates. Looks and sounds like a great tire overall. A question though. Sounds like they are great in the snow and off road generally, and acceptable in the mud off road, but in the spring and summer, when the snow and ice are all gone, how do these perform on wet roads in the rain, and on dry roads, especially at highway speeds but anytime too?
Hey they are a great all terrain tire, they are great in wet and rain traction as well as the snow with their siping they have. They are very quiet as well for an all terrain. My only drawback I’ve had is the weight of these tires compared to other all terrains of the same size, something to be mindful of for handling and performance characteristics. Hope that helps!
My Yokohama were pretty much gone by 35k miles especially going into the winter. Putting these tires on my Tundra for the first time today. Even though many complain of the price of these going up they priced out right there with the Yokohama and the cheaper Goodyear Wrangler tires I was looking at. And these Wildpeaks seem like a lot more tire imo.
Yeah even though prices have gone up on them they are still competitive to many other AT tires in the lineup, even the pinnacle brands like BFG and Toyo/Nitto have climbed in price as well and these are still significantly less than those usually.
@@TrophyTimeAdventures just picked up my truck. The guy/dealership I bought these from is an old hunting and fishing buddy of mine. This is the first time he’s seen these tires because they don’t carry or offer Falken but I had him special order these for me. He was impressed with these tires and kept asking questions about how loud were they and wondering how long the tread life would be. I just sent him this video. He texted me back and said we’re going to start pushing these along with our current line. He’s the head guy for buying tires and things like that for 5 or 6 dealerships I believe. I think Falken should give you your next set of tires. Ha!
I wouldn’t mind a gifted set of tires from falken haha, I think you’ll be happy with your purchase, let us know how they do in the snow and off road traction for you!

I drive 85% freeway miles and live w/ Seasons ❄️ 🌦. Major priority to get to work 40 miles drive each way. Got 70,000+ miles from these tires. Seemed superior to other V8 trucks in ❄️ slipping on road. I drove by w/ confidence. Just replaced my 2 vehicles tires again w/ these. I'm not concerned w/ cost
Quite the treadwear life with these, I think mostly due to ligthweight half ton truck especially the f150s with the aluminum bodies contributed to longer tread life. Thanks for watching!
I just ordered the Wildpeak A/T3W and am having them put on next week. Can I ask what size lift you have and if you've experienced any rubbing? I ordered 305/65-18 which are are about a 33.6 inch tire with a 12 inch wide tread. I was looking to get a 33x11.5 tire but Falken doesn't have that size in this tire. To get that width, I would need the tire you have but it's over 34 inches tall and I was concerned about rubbing with only having a 2 inch leveling kit installed. The wheels I'm putting them on are 18x9 with 0 offset like yours. It's all going on a 2012 F150 XLT 4x4 with a 2 inch leveling kit.
I currently have 2.7” lift with 0 offset and only had light rubbing on the front crash bars that 2015+ models have not sure if your 2012 has crash bars or not. I had 2” level and +18mm offset with these tires before and experienced no rubbing. Hope that helps!
Thank you for the quick response. It definitely helps. I've spent the last couple hours watching your videos and found the one where you go over your suspension build and appreciate you listing the links on where to find everything. Thank you for the help and the videos. I'll keep watching
Thanks for the review. What tire pressure do you run them at? I know it’s always up for debate to what people think an E rated tired should be inflated to.
That’s a nice combo for tire and level kit, I ran the same pressure in my previous set of tires in 275/70/18 bfg k02 so that should be a good starting point for tire pressures 👍
I’m happy to see they hold up very well. I just purchased a set for my wife’s AWD Sorento and might buy a set for my Jeep when my BFGs wear out. Have you taken them off road at all?
I think you’ll be impressed with the wildpeaks! I have taken them off-road primarily hunting trips. No deep mud bogging or rock crawling by any means but regular off the beatin path travel and they are great!
@@TrophyTimeAdventures perfect, my use will be very similar. The stock Goodyear Wranglers that came on my Tacoma off road are trash. Absolute garbage in the snow. I’ll be replacing them likely at 30k before next winter with the Falkens.
@@TrophyTimeAdventures those all adventures? yeah, pretty lackluster tire. i can't say what it is but no oem tire ever seems to last long, its like they make them soft to give good ride and quiet cab on test drives or something, i don't know... they sure don't seem to be the same as you buy off the shelf.
Not sure if you went from stock P tires to these or not. I will be and wondering two things, 1) what can I expect in loss of mpg from the stock wranglers in my f150, and 2) how big of a difference is there in ride performance? Will passengers feel the difference? Thx!
Hello I went from lt275/70/18 to these size tires so not factory. I didn’t notice much if any of a loss of mpg from stock to that size, but the jump to lt295/70/18 was noticeable overall city/hwy mpg drop of about 1.5-2mpg. My truck is 5.0 with 3.73 gearing, you may see different results with different motor and axle configurations, I will say getting a custom tune helped significantly. As for ride quality these are heavy tires and E rated so you will notice a difference in handling, slightly harsher ride. If you chalk test your tires and find right psi to run front and rear that helps a lot with ride quality. Hope that helps!
I just replaced mine with a second set i put 67 k roughly on them in 2 years about 10%tread left but i did not rotate like i should of i did in the beginning a couple time but if i had im sure i could of gotten another season out of them
Yes the falkens are definitely cheaper than the toyos. The weight in 295/70/18 size falkens are 68.1, Toyo at3 are 63. I would consider the cooper at3 xlt they are lighter than both at 61 pounds each and traditional 2 ply sidewall for better ride comfort. They are also priced pretty well too, those are the tires I have on currently and have held up great in the snow/ice so far this winter and mild off roading I’ve done.
I believe they only 3 peak rated the narrower 265 or 275 section width sizes and not the 295 size. However they are loaded with siping and have a softer compound than my wildpeaks did so in theory they should be just as good or better in snow and wet traction. Take a look at my recent review on the AT3 xlt should help give you an idea on the tire!
Thanks for this man. How do they do when things ice up? Actually thinking of putting some of these on my wife's minivan. I live in the mountains and that van just eats everything I've put on it. Need something that's going to hold up and get her through rough weather.
They do very well in wintery and heavy or deep snow conditions even to this date with the current mileage on them, granted if it’s black ice it doesn’t matter what tire you have unless it’s studded when it comes to braking/acceleration. What size were you thinking of getting?
They’re still holding up great traction wise in those conditions. Having about half tread now I’d say some of the deeper snow traction has probably been reduced, I will confirm that here in a month or two in Minnesota!
Hey they are 18x9 with 0mm offset wheels, check out my other video linked below with more details on the wheels specifically. Thanks! ruclips.net/video/syseNrKuauU/видео.html

on the logging and forestry roads i spend my time on if you do not run a lt you will have a flat.
That's very true I've had flats on normal SL tires just running gravel roads, first thing I do with my trucks is get some heavier duty tires!
I have them on my Mitsubishi Pajero in 265/65R17 for winter time and am very happy with them, price was really good.
Glad they last for long.
Thanks for sharing this.
They’re great all terrain tires at a great price, thanks for watching!
Excellent review, thanks
Are the the LT or standard? I've just purchased the standard T rated. Towing a caravan and some bush tracks along the way
Hey these are the LT 10 ply rated load range E in 295/70/18 size!
Thanks for sharing your experience from Canada 👍

They’ve been phenomenal tires with plenty of life left still, thanks for watching?
I hope Falken doesn’t change the composition formula for these tires!
Also, how often do you rotate your tires?
I typically try to rotate every 5-6k miles, thanks for watching!
That's pretty good especially considering, a new bfg ko2 is 15/32s.
For sure the tread wear on these tires in LT sizes seem to be very good!
45K and 14/32...HOLY COW!

Thanks for the review. What tire pressure do you run them at? I know it’s always up for debate to what people think an E rated tired should be inflated to.
I run about 37-38 front and 35 for the rear for tire pressure. I’ll air them up a bit when towing. Are you running the same size tires as mine?
I just got the 275 70 r18s. 33.4” x 11” . Same tire. Biggest I could go with a 2” level.
That’s a nice combo for tire and level kit, I ran the same pressure in my previous set of tires in 275/70/18 bfg k02 so that should be a good starting point for tire pressures 👍

That’s a really good run on a set of tires, they definitely last for mileage!
I am trying to decide between these and the Toyo AT3's. I heard the Toyos may be 5-7lbs lighter which I'd prefer but i think these are cheaper??
And maybe last longer?
Yes the falkens are definitely cheaper than the toyos. The weight in 295/70/18 size falkens are 68.1, Toyo at3 are 63. I would consider the cooper at3 xlt they are lighter than both at 61 pounds each and traditional 2 ply sidewall for better ride comfort.

About as small as they come. Lol
Very nice! Not sure how they differ between LT and regular P metric sizes in terms of tread compound and such but I think you’ll be happy with them!
@@TrophyTimeAdventures LT don't have silica compound and P do so they are a bit better in the winter.
That’s good to know and makes sense in terms of traction between the two,
Thanks for watching!
After 25k my 275/65/20 at3w look new. My previous set of cooper zeon were bald at 30 k.
Very cool yeah you will be happy with the tread wear on these tires!
how are these in wet/rainy conditions on paved roads? my hankooks are junk after 35k! F150 lariat
They’re still holding up great traction wise in those conditions. Having about half tread now I’d say some of the deeper snow traction has probably been reduced, I will confirm that here in a month or two in Minnesota!
What is the offset of the wheels? 9” wide wheels?
Hey they are 18x9 with 0mm offset wheels, check out my other video linked below with more details on the wheels specifically. Thanks!
ruclips.net/video/syseNrKuauU/видео.html
have you ever tried Yokohama Geolandar AT G015s?
No I have not, are you currently running those tires?
Anyone know the largest size that fits stock 2021 F150 sport w/max tow, 18"
I know a 275/70/18 or 285/65/18 should work on stock wheels/suspension. Not sure much taller or wider without changing offset and leveling or lifting.
Thank you!!
