Absolutely LOVED this vodeo. I was through channel for several several years now, and this has got to be one of my absolute favorite ones. Thank you for a great 1 and have a blessed day.
I run Wildpeak AT3Ws in 35 x 12.5 e-load on my Gladiator Rubicon which is my daily, my overlander and my wheeler. Love em! 40K miles and still going strong.
@@dmarable79 no lift required. You can go to full extension without any rubbing. Although I think that they fit on the stock 7.5 inch wheel, I got the AEV Savagre 2 wheel which is 8.5 inches wide. Per the specs they’re not technically not supposed to be on a wheel less than 8 inches wide.
that dude.. in that truck @14:05 and what you said is priceless. this was a great video. I drive rc crawlers and this was great to see how full size does as well. tires are so very much important and I learned the hard way when I was young and slid all over the highway at 75 because I didn't want to spend money on good tires. I now have some falken on my sedan, but they still aren't as good as the prior michelin and i'm kinda regretting it. But tires are so dependent too on terrain and area average temp and type size and weight of vehicle too.
Finally a wrangler rubicon video!Ive run poison spider (and the full trifecta) a few times, and it’s a great trail. Did it first in a 200 series Land Cruiser and after that in a couple of my jeeps. I’ve been waiting to see you test a jeep on your usual off road courses but it never happens. As a JLUR owner it’s often frustrating for me to watch you test the traction control and articulation on crossovers.
@@drivingsportsDude, you can borrow mine next time I’m in your hood. You should post up like Demuro does “can I film a video with your car” and I’m sure you’d get one..
Nice you are given the chance to get out of the PNW now and then. Makes for interesting variety. As for the Jeeps, great that you got to show off a ride in 1. As for the tires. Well, I know you like the Falkens. But it has been watching your use of them and how they worked in RW conditions that made my mind up on going with KO2's. Their lateral grip I seen you slip a lot with them. Didn't like that. While this specific example of the 4's seemed strong, they were also 37's. Might have been improved upon. Too soon to tell.
Yes man, just the hwy 128 from interstate to Moab is amazing ... And i was always wondering if Rubicon includes wheel braking traction in certain modes when lockers are not used? If you know please let me know
also one more question - could you share the mount you used for the in-car shots? i'm trying to find the right set-up for my jeep and that looked perfect. thanks a ton - awesome video
I ran 3 sets of Falkenwildpeaks AT3W and found out they were prone to losing lateral traction. My friends that run Toyo Open Country AT3s didn't have that problem. I noticed that the compound on the Falkens were twice as rigid as the Toyos. When I saw that the AT4Ws were marketed as having "the same compound" I was like...... that's not good.
Time for more jeep videos... even if it's not a wrangler. Falken says the narrower grooves is for better dry road performance but will hinder mud performance. The AT4W will not be replacing the AT3W thankfully.
Thanks for that info. Yeah, I have a LOT of mud where I wheel, the fact that the AT3Ws I currently run have deep wide grooves is great bc I get all the benefits of an A/T but with capability not far off some mudders. I hope they don’t discontinue the AT3Ws.
Good review. I just purchased a '15 jeep wk2 w/quadra lift and was already looking at these tires. I'm still new on how to choose the "right" tires, my understanding so far for just offroading/overlanding is to go for an LT am I right? And does anyone happen to know what the maximum size that will fit on the wk2 w/18 in. Wheels? Oh and I was wondering if that was Nathan from Outdoor Auto until I read your credits lol😂 can't wait for his review as well. You guys are the best on 411
I'm in the market for a new tire. Had the BFG KO2 for 6 yrs with 98K miles on them. Considering btwn the Falken AT4W and RT. What is your opinion since you have the Falken RT on your Ford? I now live in Alaska and I switch out to studded winter tires so winter performance is not important for me for the Falken. Thanks!
You gotta test tires somewhere other than Moab (that’s on Falken tho). I could probably do Poison Spider with all seasons. I run MTs because of Colorado’s rocky trails and just better all around off-road performance from what I’ve experienced making trail guides.
The AT3Ws do great out here in the Appalachians in mud and wet shale and granite, which is slippery af. They have the deepest grooves of any A/T and are pretty wide, giving them the good mud capability. I do find it ironic that the rock in Moab is called slickrock given that it’s the grippiest rock around when dry. Our climbs out here are all kinds of slippery- from loose rocks to sand and gravel to wet rocks and roots. Every time I watch a Moab vid I’m like, damn I wish I had that kinda grip. Lol.
Great video. How do you and everyone like the sky touch roof on the wrangler? I love the idea of it, but I prefer the look of the traditional black hardtop.
My 2020 rubicon has it. Wife talked me into it and I was really against it. Now I love it, wish the Gladiator had it. Very convenient, no issues even at the car wash, reasonably quiet. Love mine.
Unless they improved hydroplaning resistance and increased winter traction, I'll be going to a different brand. My 37" AT3W's handled Metal Masher and Steel Bender at EJS this past week without issue, but they were borderline straight up garbage on the drive home and have been super MEH during winter storms (yes, my tread wear is still good with all 5 showing north of 10/32's remaining).
Surprised you didn't get stranded with a ''check engine'' light or because of electrical problems... they are the most unreliable rattle boxes on the market
Over 20 years of wrangler ownership with many held on for over 10 years (multiple Jeeps at the same time) and I just don’t seem to ever have any of these issues I hear about in the comment section.
73K of daily and wheelin miles and no issues. Over the years have passed several broken Yotas on trails though that were trying to do Jeep things. Btw- look up recalls on the Taco. You might be surprised (or you’ll just ignore bc it doesnt fit your story line).

As always great vid!
the majority of Jeep Rubicons NEVER see a trail, not once...
Awesome vid! Love seeing you enjoying wheeling. I could watch hours of you doing this. You bring more than others. It's great.
and I was thinking about - not a single video on the channel with Jeep Wrangler, finally)
Great tires, I have to get a set for my ford pinto !!!!! Lol 😂 great job Ryan !!!
I just had these installed on my '23 4xe. Fantastic in all conditions. Falken has a winner here.
Ryan in off road Heaven. Pretty agressive tire tread in those Falken tires. Great review as always. Greetings
Nice that you were hanging out with Nate from Outdoor Auto!

Did you have to do any modifications to fit the 35 inch tires on your rubicon? Or can they fit with the stock wheels?

Jeep has never sent the PNW a Wrangler outside of a single 4xe that was pulled from fleet early.

@@dadventuretv2538 agreed. They're great tires.
nice video! how much of a discount if at all would you expect to see on the AT3W when these drop? i'm currently shopping for new tires for jl wrangler
You don't need to put it in manual 1st gear You had it in offroad Plus mode. that's the reason for that it keeps it from overshifting.
Are the falkens true 37in?

So far I’ve loved the RT in mixed conditions. Since you have the snow angle covered with proper winter tires, I’d go with the RT.

I was searching wranger on your channel and was like "huh"? Now that explains it! I was hoping to see why you'd want this over the Badlands Bronco.
We finally have a Wrangler scheduled to film in the PNW. Should be filming in May.
Great video. How do you and everyone like the sky touch roof on the wrangler? I love the idea of it, but I prefer the look of the traditional black hardtop.

01:47, I’m sorry, but what’s all that on the underside of the hood? First thought, what’s blown under there to cause that?
Might be salt? Not sure. It’s a rental.
There is a Reason JEEP is the undisputed King of off road..👍
How’s it feel to drive the real off-road king! JEEP RUBICON!

Did they have you guys air down? Looks like they're at street pressure. I did notice that you said they were for heavier loads.
@@RRr-yl8zr Thanks, I kinda skipped through to the obstacle parts. :). Not much flex in them at 20 psi.
And to note: I did grumble about airing down to only 20. But that’s what Falken requested.
Did you cross paths with MATTS OFF ROAD RECOVERY anywhere in Utah?
Nope! And that's good because if he and I are in the same place one of us has fallen off a cliff.
Were you ever a part of TFL???
We’ve been around a lot longer than TFL.
These tires need to be tested in places like Washington state or Oregon with all the rain/snow and what not we get up here
That tire is too firm for daily use on a Wrangler. The 315/70R17 tire in a lower weight rating would be appropriate.
6lbls heavier per wheel than the AT3W. Dealbreaker
It's meant for more capable off-road and we're not worried about gas mileage
I will never understand why people go off-roading in easy mode.
This is the Jeep you buy when you have the money and none of the experience. The US market for this stuff has gotten ridiculous.
This is the jeep you buy if you actually wheel.
