    Just purchased a set of Wildpeaks a few days ago, 35x12.5x20. I was curious how well it performed on slick pavement so I did my own non-scientific bubba road test. You can see the condition of the roadway in the picture. I can't say I floored the gas, but I can say I accelerated faster than I normally would just to see if I lost traction and I never did. I also goosed it on the roadway while already moving to see if I fishtailed and I did not. The tires seemed to move water away fairly well through standing water too. Of course I wasn't tryin to hydroplane, just seeing if I got squirrel'y which I didn't. To me these tires seemed to grip really well.

    Keep in mind these are brand new tires. I am sure every AT tire being so new would have the same result. Just wanted to share the bubba test with you and let you know I have confidence in these tires to perform well on wet asphalt. So far so good with the falkens. :thumbsup::rain:
