Falken Wildpeak AT4W Review - LT275/70/18

[tacorancher]

Hey Guys - I have been waiting to issue this review to give the new tires a fair chance. I’ve put about 500 miles or so on them. At first I was not happy with the ride (a bit stiff) but once I got the PSI dialed in just right (34 front, 33 rear), the ride is still firm but nice and smooth. Also bear in mind this is an E load range tire.

PROS:
- Look awesome
- Insanely tough and overbuilt (you can just tell)
- Deepest tread in the segment (18/32)
- Very smooth with zero balancing challenges
- Steering responsiveness shockingly good
- Great highway driving
- MPG hit for a 60.3 pound tire is not bad (about 2 MPG)
- Very quiet except for a pleasant (honestly it sounds kinda cool) off-road tire hum between 20 and 40 mph

CONS:
- Heavy ass tire
- A little bit firm

I will do a full blown YouTube video on it later with a lot more detail but here’s a short showing no rub (someone on here asked for it - forgive me for the cheesy music). Also check out the pictures.

Comment on size: these seem to run true to size. The tires are 0.75” taller than the stock 265/70/18s. My ground clearance seems to be up 0.3” or so. Noticeable but nothing crazy.

Last note: I came close to getting the KO3s because of FOMO - but I think I’m keeping these bad boys.
