Themes extracted from owner reviews found online — not the opinion of TireWheelGuide.
From Reddit, forums and review threads. Not part of our score
Community sentiment toward the Falken Wildpeak A/T4W is largely positive, with owners praising its aggressive aesthetics, quiet highway ride, and reliable traction in wet and snowy conditions. Most discussions focus on fitment clearance and upsized setups, with very little to no rubbing reported across multiple platforms. The primary critique and discussion point centers on its noticeable tire weight, associated MPG penalties, and confusing load-rating weight discrepancies.
“i just installed a set of 285/65/20 ATW4 on my 23 denali dually. so far, LOVE THEM. they ride great, handle great and for newly molded tire (release agents)...they performed great day one in wet weather”
“Falken Wildpeak A/T4W I’ve been running a set of Kenda Klever R/T 35s on my Jeep and they’ve been great for a while. They got us through our Ouray and Moab adventures without a single issue, and I originally picked them up for a steal at 180 a tire. However, over the last few months, I started dealing with a nasty front-end wobble around 40 mph. It got so bad that the truck was becoming unbearable to drive. I was honestly ready to drop a ton of money on new ball joints, drag links, and tie rods because I assumed the hardware had just worn out. When I took the truck into Discount Tire for a rotation, I asked them to try a rebalance as well. The tech came back and told me the tires were a total pain to balance. That’s when it clicked that the Klevers might have gone out of round. Since they were already pretty worn down, I decided to just have them order and install a set of Falken Wildpeak A/T4W tires in 35 x 11.5 instead. The difference has been night and day. The truck finally drives smooth again, the wobble is completely gone, and the ATs made the ride so much quieter. They look great on the truck as well. Tires being out of round was the last thing I was thinking about. But I do remember on some forums that others with Klevers did have that problem as well.”
“Wildpeak A/T4W C vs E load same weight? Shopping new tires for my rig. Discount Tire and Falken’s spec sheet both state the C load and E load in the same size are the same weight. How is this possible? I’m probably going C anyways but I was just surprised and thought this must be a misprint? Read more”

Community feedback for the Toyo Open Country A/T III is largely positive, with drivers frequently praising its traction in snow, rain, and off-road conditions, as well as its smooth ride comfort and solid tread life. While road noise and heavy unsprung weight are noted by some users, the primary complaints involve sidewall durability issues specifically on C-load ratings compared to E-load versions, alongside a recent product recall.
“I have them on my Tacoma. For what I do with that truck I like them. But I don't think I'd like them as much on the Ford. I needed tires for both trucks within a month of each other and went with Toyo AT III's on the F150. I think I put the right tire on the right truck The Goodyears are a bit more aggressive, a bit louder, and don't ride quite as well. The old Tacoma is mosty used locally and is my hunting truck so those tires match the needs better. Toyo Tire Open Country A/T III | Discount Tire”
“Appreciate you asking the question and why not just swap out for the Toyo Open Country A/T III with the 3MPSF rating right before you make the drive? I've run dedicated winter tires for years now and would not consider them useable at a 7/32 tread level. Hope you have a great time in CO and enjoy the road trip!”
“1 year, +/- 20k miles since swapping to Toyo Tire Open Country A/T III 215 /75 R15 w DX4's Pocket 15 X7 wouldn't change a thing. 80% commuting, 20% fun. Soak up the potholes and dig in the snow. Softest, smoothest”

Every category score blends two independent signals. 60% comes from professional tire tests (braking distances, lap times, noise measurements), each result compared with every other tire in the same test and newer tests counting more. 40% comes from owner reviews found online, adjusted for how generously each site rates. Both use one scale: the average tested tire gets 70, the best 100. When a tire has only one of the two, the missing half is estimated from the other and the score stays closer to average; with no road test and fewer than five owner reviews it gets no score yet.
Handling is the exception: road tests measure it inside the dry and wet scores, so its own row comes from owner ratings only and starts as less important.
