Falken wildpeak rt/01

Anyone tried these yet? I have the at3w’s in 275/65 18, but after a level kit I wanna move up a notch to 285/65 18. If you have them how do you like them, and what price did you pay? I was quoted 1750 from the first dealer today. The other option would to be just stay with the at3w’s in the larger size as they have been good to me. TIA.

 

These

 

Yes, those.

 

why you want to go wider but not taller??

 

According to calculations and the one I got from the shop the 285/65 is a little over 1/2” taller and a little under 1/2” wider.

 

Someone feel free to correct me, but I got a 285/65 used at3w tire and it was noticeably larger in hight and width.

 

it don't fill the fender gap with 1/4 inch on each side

 

I dont want much poke anyhow as I want the factory flaps to do their job.

 

I am getting Wildpeak RT 35x11.5/18 LR C installed this week. I'll post pictures. I like the size not being as wide to reduce any poke and the load range C helps with weight.

 

I would go a little taller than 285 65 but I tow a lot and don’t want to get into gear swaps and speedo recalibration.

 

285/65 is stock size, going up 2'' wont change much except my MPG I was getting on OEM Wildpeaks that only weigh 38lbs

 

Does that Load Range C soften the ride any?

 

hard to say as I only had the stock Wildpeaks on before and not E load, but it doesnt seem much stiffer than before. Ride height and road hum is greater, mpg less.

 

Sorry forgot to add pics. These are ones I took a while back. So far tires are good. Full out wheel well nicely. TRD Pro stock suspension

 

Just got them in 315/70R17. They feel pretty comfortable yet solid. I'm used to getting that squishy, wiggly feeling with brand new tires. This is the first set of tires that I didn't get that with. Feels great.

 

Nice looking tire, sidewall looks relatively aggressive

 

Ok reviving an old thread.

I have close to 30k miles on my Wildpeak RTs now. Noise is louder as expected. I do not think I will get past 50k miles, I may replace them before next winter. Off-road traction and mud traction great. Snow traction is ok but not good IMO. Id love to hear from others who have these and drive in snow all the time. But I think they slide around more due to lack of sipes.

 

I'm wondering how they'll handle in the snow as well.

Just ordered some 37's to replace my near 55k mi Wild Peak A/T 3W's.

Cool video of some Canadian's putting 25k miles on them on their way through South America.

 

Got Wildpeak R/T 37x12.50R17 on my new wheel setup as well. Haven't put a ton of miles on them yet but they do great in the desert and street.

 

I wound up going with the r/t’s. I’ve got about 12k on them and they are wearing nicely with not much more noise that the at3. Most of my driving is pavement, and didn’t see much snow here in SC this year. I do like them, however one thing I’ve noticed and idk if it’s bc I went up a size or they are just more rubber but they are heavy. I don’t have actual numbers but the gas pedal can tell they are there.

 

Just got notified, 30-60 day nation wide back order .
