Falken Wild Peak A/t3W's

[jflogerzi]

So far only a couple short trips and can get around well in 2WD and the roads are shit right now!

Longer trip tomorrow to cabin.

Sounds good. Keep this thread updated.

Jeff, my first impressions of the Wildpeaks following a 110 mile trip today with about 10 miles city driving in packed snow, and the other 100 miles hwy with mixed conditions, mostly wet with heavy salt on the road.

Road noise is slightly worse than the stock Hankooks but not loud by any means. Truck is much smoother on the Wildpeaks than the worn Hankooks.

Cornering is fantastic with solid feel on the wheel but my old Hankook side treads were pretty worn.

Snow handling is great as unplowed side streets had 6-8" fresh and packed snow and Wildpeaks handled them adequately in 2WD.

I have confidence in these tires under changing road conditions and so far the handling is satisfactory.

Gas mileage so far ( not much history) has been 20.7 with average speeds between 45-70 mph.

Should do fine if you go up to Big Bear or Lake Arrowhead.

Not to be a Debbie Downer but I see the A/T 4 s are coming out.

Yep. Just had a set put on yesterday

Unless you need new tires right away, the A/T4W release is right around the corner. It’s a new revision from the A/T3W.

There are quite a few sizes out and available ATM. If I can answer questions about size/availability, I'm happy to help!

I was ok with getting the at3w.

Finished with 1st tank and got 21.6 mpg with the winter gas so happy about that since some reported a mileage hit. So far not seeing it.

Super happy with wet road driving as well. Flew through the 40mph curves on hwy with cruise set at 60 with no loss of traction.

At this point Id be fine with AT3s because I know they are a great tire.Newer is not always better.I wonder if they discount the AT3s at some point?
