I have Walken Wildpeaks A/T 255/55-18 Tires on my 23 MYP. Bought from Tsportline with their overland pkg. Not much range hit and no need to change any speedo.

Pros: minimal range hit, no speedo change

I’ve been liking my wildpeaks at4s. Haven’t had damage off-roading only puncture I’ve had was a roof nail on the road.

Pros: good off-roading durability
Cons: vulnerable to road nails

I have the same tires. On smaller aftermarket rims but they’ve been a great tire. I’ll get the same tires again this spring.

Pros: great tire

One of my stock tires finally decided to kick the bucket, so I replaced them with a set of Falken Wildpeak A/T Trails. So far I like them, they’re the same size as the stock tires, but the handling is superb (especially in rain and on gravel). A little more road noise and a bit of reduction in gas mileage, but I’m cool with it.

Pros: superb handling, good in rain and gravel
Cons: more road noise, reduced gas mileage

I went with Wildpeak AT Trail because highway driving is my priority, with occasional drives on the beach and gentle Forest Service roads. I see a lot of soft-roading in this sub-reddit they can handle.

Pros: good for highway, handles beach/trails

I've only tried one set so far. Falken azenis RT 660+. So far they are awesome. They are almost too sticky tbh. There is a intersection i like to slide through and with these I have to really stay in throttle hard to get it going or small clutch kick helps.

Pros: awesome, very sticky
Cons: almost too sticky

These tires do not have the same level of grip that the Tempesta P1, RE-71RS, A052s, etc. have, so do not buy these thinking you'll be competitive, because you probably won't be.

Besides that, lets start with the good sides of this tire.

-Very consistent. They do not lose grip even as they get hot, nor do they lack a ton of grip when they're cold.

-Fantastic treadwear. These will definitely last you a couple seasons at the very least. They hold their grip well throughout the entirety of the tread range.

-Responds well to inputs. While these don't have the pure grip of a super 200 tire, they respond well to inputs and are eager to change direction when you need to.

Now lets get to the bad.

-VERY unpredictable. If you start hearing even slight tire squealing, you are right on the limit of grip. These tires snap out from under you easily if you're not careful or don't know the characteristics of these tires.

-Like I said before, these lack a lot of grip compared to the super 200s, but thats kinda something you should expect when buying these tires.

Overall, I'd give the RT615K+ a solid 7/10. They're not very competitive but they're a lot of fun, they're a great tire to learn on, they offer good value in the longevity department, but they're unpredictable compared to some other tires.

Pros: very consistent, fantastic treadwear, responds well to inputs, good value, great to learn on
Cons: lack grip, unpredictable, snap out easily, not competitive
Part number: RT615K+

I have these on my car. I like how it performs in dry and slightly wet or snowy conditions. When it comes to water puddles or heavy rain, this thing hydroplane like crazy.

Pros: performs in dry conditions
Cons: hydroplane like crazy
