Falken Wildpeak AT LT

[tech740]

Anyone running these tires on their TV. I am putting them on my Ecoboost and am wondering how they do. I have never went from P rated to LT before so any info is appreciated. Pressure to run when unloaded, mpg drop, etc. Coming from good years SRA. Staying the same size. 275/65/18. Thanks.

I purchased the Falken Rocky Mtn. ATS II in Feb. of
this year. They run quiet, track extremely well, and haven't
hurt my fuel mileage any. I've put almost 8,000 miles on them
and they still look like new. I keep them at recommended inflation
pressure as stated on the sidewall. I'm very satisfied with them.

I see you are in an F250. Glad to hear about the tacking and wear. Is it really rough at 80psi?

Mine recommend 65 psi. and it's plenty rough as it's a sprung 4X4 with a
thicker (by 0.002") center leaf. leveled it out and only lowers about 1.5"
when I hook the Cougar up.
Forgot to mention, the tires work great on wet pavement too.

They are on the truck now. We have towed about 200 miles and drove about an additional 150. They are really quiet for as aggressive as they are. They tow awesome. Only running 70psi and there is no sidewall flex. Obviosly I can't speak for longevity of these at this point but they are definatly worth the investment. Also no noticeable mpg drop. The tread is very open and aggressive so they do hold/throw rocks on gravel areas.
