Are there no reviews on the Wildpeak M/T's
So I searched on this site and the only reviews were for the A/T's but none on the M/T's. So.... Is there a review on them anywhere? I live on the Gulf and I am looking to see if it is good for rain and water use. I found the reviews on their site here.
https://www.falkentire.com/tires/lig...eak-m/t-tire-0
But I would actual like real reviews.

Have you checked out the other forums like ih8mud or expedition portal?
Heres a few. The Tacoma one is a long term review
Falken Wildpeak MT thread (with review?) | Tacoma World
Long Term Review: Falken Wildpeak M/T – Expedition Portal
Also wouldnt the AT3ws be better for rain onroad use? They do decently in mud

The only ones I found were for the A/T not the M/T.

I've been running mine for about two years now and it has held up fine. Very quite on the road. Very grippy on the trail. You have to dial in your PSI to get proper traction just like any tire. When I ran it at 40psi it will slip a bit around wet rainy city roads. At 33psi it runs great. Only Con is they are a ***** to balance properly.

Good friend is running them in 315/70r17. They are much smaller than other 315s. Just like BFG. He has not had any issues daily driving them. We even had them in snow last winter and they did well. They do seem to be wearing much quicker than other tires he has had, yet he drives less the past year.

Any clue why they are so hard to balance?

I'm assuming it's Toyota. There seems to be many who have hard time balancing with other tires and our vehicle is just sensitive to tiny difference in weight, etc.

Not entirely sure. But I am assuming it has something to do with the weight consistency along the whole inner lining or rubber compound they used. If it is off by a little it will have a steering wheel vibrations when going around 80kph. disappears around 100kph. Still baffles me. I've had it re balanced three times. Now I just kinda live with it.
I have not noticed these tires wearing faster than other mud tires I've come across.
