Falken Wildpeak Deal

Definitely spend the money to get them road force balanced the first time- it took a couple tries with my first set, but my second is still smooth and wearing well after over 70k (if the PO's records are accurate, which they should be)...

Thanks for the tip, I had never heard of road force balancing until today. :thanks:
 
Those are the "P" rated version

Figured Id post this here as it is where I lurk the most and the 4th gen people are my people.

Falken has a sale on Wildpeak AT 265-70-17 115T at $120.30. They may be selling out this years model with possibly an upgrade next year

I havent been able to find a tire shop to match this

If you're looking for an AT or slightly bigger tire here you go

they will be cheaper then the LT rated tires...and they may have a shallower tread depth..
 
FYI - the date of manufacture on mine were the 43rd week of 2019
- 10/21/2019 - so brand new

For me, I like the lighter tire based on what I do. I would rather take MPG than a heavier tire/ more side wall with deep tread.

I do some off roading/ rock crawling with airing down, but also drive it quite a bit
 
Where yours made in USA or Thailand? I got 2 of each

Been researching these and there are way too many threads on the tacoma forums saying these are terrible. Too bad, I really wanted to see something different.

Can you provide some links? Strange, I did a lot of research on them before buying and I read nothing but rave reviews. There was one thread of people having issues balancing them though, but I've read many reviews of other tires being hard to balance.

Regardless, I've been running Wildpeaks AT3Ws for about 15k kms the past year and I'm very happy with them (265/70/17). They are as quiet as my Bridgestone Dueller H/T highway tires. I took them to Alaska on a 10k km road trip and drove the Denali Highway aired down to 22 PSI with no punctures or flats at all.
Compared to Duratracs I had on my Tacoma, these are much more quiet and handle better in light snow. I'm very happy with them.

The Tacoma forums are filled with bad reviews, unfortunately.

As can I, had them on for 15k+ and totally happy. Had KO2s on a previous vehicle and loved them but will say the Falkens have performed equally issue-free and were substantially cheaper.

Definitely worth consideration unless they've changed something in the last 12 months.
 
Just combined this with Discount Tire's Black Friday rebate of 10% back and price match. With install at $19 per tire, the total was $584, rebate of $58.40 brings the price of 4 installed to $525.60, or $131.40 per tire. Not bad.

Good deal. I had credit at a tire shop because they put the 16' caliper size on me before and the break pads wore down really fast, so put that towards my mount and balance
 
I'm mad af I didn't order these in 285/70R17 while they were only $175 a pop on Amazon. They're $195 now just like everywhere else...
 
Do not fret.

I missed out on the WP's in my size at $104. I watched the price shoot up to $167 and then settle to $143.

I added one to my saved cart. I logged into check the price a couple times a day and when the price dropped to $123, I had DT do a quick PM and I was off and happy with that price, especially since I was only buying a spare.

Good luck,

Eddie
