I'm running the Falken Wild peak AT/3s also. Though in the 285/70/17 so about 33s but mildly lifted. I really like thsee tires. So far have been great on road and off. I do like my Dunlop snow tires though for when it is below 0 degrees F. They are good in the snow, but I bit too hard for ice. They are pretty good most winter conditions. Let me know if you have any balancing issues, and what pressures front/back you are running.

Let me know if you have any balancing issues, and what pressures front/back you are running. Sorry it took me so long to respond, I haven't had any issues with balancing. They feel smooth at all the speeds I have put them through. I have to check the tire pressures when I get home. Discount tire installed them, so I assume that they put the same pressure in them all the way around. Is there something that you would suggest? I may lower the pressure when I get to the trail so I have a little more grip. But we will see. I drove to my friends house to go shooting, he has a dirt driveway about a quarter of a mile long. I noticed when I was leaving that I had turned up some dirt on my way in. So these tires really dig into the dirt which is nice. |

Stock we run 27lbs of pressure, for myself between feel and wear I havery been running 33 front and 31 back. But of course drop them down to 25ish while off roading. Haven't gone anyplace crazy enough to need to run them lower than that yet. As for balancing I have had to have them rebalanced about 3 times initially, think it may have been where I had them done. They do pick up tiny gravel easily, but mud and sand doesn't build up at all.

Any road howl on the freeway?

No where near as much as mud tires, and I'd say a lot less then most of the ATs I've ever heard in a vehicle. They aren't as quiet as highway tires, but for the amount of grip, and tread pattern and spacing I'd say they are very quiet. They make virtually no noise till over 50, and even at 70 they aren't too loud. I do have to turn up the sub a smidgen on the highway. But even running Z rated road tires on a completely sound deadened, audio competition car I had to do that too. Most people that have ridden with me say they are a lot quieter than they thought they would be. But I'm sure there are quieter ATs and ones with better off road traction. But thus far they excell pretty good at both for me at least.
