Here are the new larger sizes available in the Wildpeak A/T. The 35x13.50R18 (325/65R18) and 36.5x12.50R16 (325/80R16) are available TODAY. Most of the other sizes will be available right after Christmas.
Any authorized Falken dealer can call and special order these now. I have included the Falken part numbers. These sizes will not be available in the Rocky Mountain ATS until later in 2011.

Anyone have any actual mounted heights on these tires? (looking at this one specifically - LT325/80R16 Wildpeak A/T Equivalent to 36.5x12.50R16).

Nothing like the feeling of ordering 36/37's and end up with 34's...

We are running the 37X12.50R17L Falken Wildpeak ATs and they measure about 36.5.

They will of course vary depending upon the width wheel you mount them on.

I am actually running the 325/80R16 on my TJ. This size is almost the identical height as the 37x12.50R17 and it is slightly wider. Two pictures attached with the tires side by side. The 325/80R16 is on the left.

The reason I ask is that my last two sets of tires for 16" rims have run short. And from many other posts here, it seems that an equivalent tire for 17" rims is taller.


My previous and current tires on 16x8.5" rims:
Nitto Terra Grappler 295/75/16, Mfg lists 33.27", actual mounted height - 32".
Maxxis Bighorn 315/75/16, Mfg lists 34.6", actual mounted height -33.5".


So when I buy 37's, I wanted to try and make sure that I don't get the same surprise. (one common remark I see quite often is that if you want a 35" KM2, order the 37".)

And thanks for the replies Andrew and Mrs WOL, that helps

Last time I wheeled Black & Blue trails at Rausch Creek, the JK in front of me had them on. I was totally skeptical at first but by the end of the day I will say I was honestly impressed.

The driver took the hard lines & abused the tires to see if he could get them fail... no damage and they got through all of the mud & rocks. The rest of us were running KM2s, MTR Ks, etc and the Falken kept up. In the thick mud they obviously needed a little more skinny to get through but for an A/T they rocked.

On the cosmetic front they obviously don't look as badass as a meaty mud tire but thats the only negative I can think of.

Looking forward to seeing what their mud tire is like when it comes out.

I just measured my TJ... mounted on 16x8 wheels with 18psi in them. 325/80R16 measured 35.625" They have about 1,000 miles and two trails runs on them.

Hope this helps.

Andrew
