Was minding my business and reading up on spacers but alas…
So glad to see it’s not just me - it seems these Falken AT4’s are hijacking threads all over ? damn them and their extra weight!!
Thanks for the linK. The AT and MT look decent but there’s not much out there on them and few running; perhaps by the time I need my next set there will be more info and historical data on them. One to watch but not dropping $$$ on them at this point.
I’m buying a tire that historically has high ratings for performance in an all-terrain setting - for me that’s 90% on road and 10% off but a tire that also performs extremely well in all weather environments. The tire must also have a high reliability rating, and yes… have a moderately...
Interesting. Thats a couple of you wanting the AT3…wonder if Falken will regret their decision to phase it out as this opinion expands ?
I did just speak with my local Ford and theyre showing it’s the AT4 235 option replacement other than a trail tire which I dont want.
Since the BFG KO3s are no where to be found for our sizes, I’m likely pulling back from 245 mainly due to weight concerns and instead will run a 235. MT or Falken
Would you still do the AT3s if they allowed an AT4 swap to a 235?
My thought…Since the BFG KO3s are no where to be found for our...
Yeah my concern is how old are those AT3s : worry theyve been sitting a while and just burning thru inventory until gone. Would have to check the date before install if I go that route. Good to know though.
The MT BB are the sweetest looking tire out there; strong and made in US which I love. I do have concerns about weight and balancing but have yet to rule it out.
I had visions of a 245 but perhaps will go with a bulky sidewall 235 as I do 95% road travel. Thanks for the pro/con list - helps alot ??
Ohhhhh sigh and this is my concern and why Ive held off so long. I have AT3s and love them but fell in love with the AT4s until all research I was doing pointed to the heavier design being something the lil BS may have a problem with in reality.
My latest is IF I do go with the Falken AT4s it...
TIRE TIME: seeking feedback from those who are running 245/65/17 in one of these brands:
Falken Wildpeak AT4s
Mickey Thompson Baja Boss
Nitto Ridge Grapplers
Any issues?
Would you buy again?
Do you wish you would’ve stayed with 235’s?
Update: Hood scoop removed one week. A-pillar lights installed the next. Love how she’s coming together. I debated on the size of lights for months and landed in the perfect size for the BS.Don’t let their size fool you… they’re small but mighty!
My BS was forever saying low battery. I had a guy run a few tests and he found a parasitic draw and suggested I try locking it (one click) when done for the day/night to completely shut her down. Once I started doing that the warning disappeared.
So many noted they wanted to buy even knowing about the recal so I just posted it - didnt think it thru I guess. What they wrote makes sense so I removed the listing. And NO I’m NOT that person ?? when the recalls official. Let me know.
