Thanks for the video. I have a 2010 Outback that I would like to install this in. Mine actually has a oil cooler mounted in it already but it's definitely too small. Can I just use the original lines and route them up to the new cooler? then it should work fine I was thinking?
Thanks for the review. Im thinking about picking up a set. I have a Forester, i wouldnt mind taking it on a hunting trip once a month or so. Not really offroading, just dirt roads with some potentially sharp rocks and a few inclines/ up hills. I just want something with a tad more aggressive tread, and a bit thickier side walls.
We just started stocking and selling these tires. I can say they look great, It has a stout sidewall for only being a 2 ply. The tire is made in the USA in TN by Nokian, They use the same green casing for the Patagonia that they use in their Light truck line. I'm actually waiting for a set to be shipped for my Tacoma. The owner of the company I work for put a set of 255/55R18 on his Honda Ridgeline and he loves them.
Is your outback on stock suspension? I am looking at getting a set of these tires but in 235/60/R17. I was wondering if I could put 235/65/R17 on my car with stock suspension and mud guards. Thanks!
Dynapro Xtreme is what is changed them out for! I did a day in the snow last month and had zero traction issues. Snow was older and about 10 inches. They’ve drastically improved my fuel economy. Averaging 21 mpg now.
Okkkk nice to know!! As I absolutely need something like this!!!! BUT WHYYYY DID U NOT TURN IT ON AND DEMO IT!!!??? I MEAN U SHOW US THIS BUT U NEVER EVEN TURNED IT ON!!!??? OR USED IT!!!??? U DIDNT BATHE UR DOG!!?? OR DO SOME DISHES!? OR WASH UR??? 4W?? CAR?? I see a hatchback so Car!? So like a person living off grid needing a portable shower or dog shower washer etc...!? I MEAN THIS WOULD TOTALLY BE FREAKIN GREAT FOR BATHING UR DOG UR SELF UR DISHES!? Would be great off grid or camping or even if u need to do something very far from ur home ur hose hookup barn etc!? BUTTTT LUKE WHOOO DOESNT WANT TO SEE IT WORK RUN BE USED ETC! WHO DOESNT WANT TO HEAR IT RUN SEE IT RUN!? I AM VERY DISAPPOINTED AS I WAS EXPECTING THIS
Excuse my ignorance but why does the heavier weight matter? I'm thinking of putting these on a brand new Crosstrek to eliminate the need for winter tires. I only drive 11-12k miles a year but live in Vermont: mountains, hills, dirt roads and of course snow!😂
Poorer fuel economy and loss of power. It takes more for the engine to move a heavier tire, but that seems to be exclusive to the 235/65/17 that I have equipped and may not be the case with all sizes Falken offers
Yeah that seems mad, I swapped my KO2s out for AT3Ws in 215/70r16 & the worn out KO2s where noticably heavier. AT3Ws I'd say where comparable on gravel & mud, but substantially better on wet roads.
I’ve heard they’re very quiet and deliver good grip on dirt, rock, and sand but fail in ice and mud. Also they do have durability issues when it comes to punctures and sidewall slashes. They’re good for 95% highway 5% off-road.
In your video u said u got 22-23 MPG. But u said the fuel economy took a hit. So what did it drop to after u put these on? And what do u average now ? I am torn between these and the AT3 in the 235/65. I was gonna go with these but saw they are 5 pounds heavier than the AT3. So do I think the AT3 will get better gas mileage since they are lighter ?
Iam lookin to change tires in my maverixk 224 65 r17 stock atr pireli , and just looking for something like that but.... attrail in 235 65 r17 are 35 lb, instead of the lightest 31.1lb of 235 65 r17 at3 falken more agressive. In toyo 235 65 r17 are 34!...same weight as falken trail , so weird enought a more agresive all rounf tires is in fact the more of roady falken at3....i will go there from 225 pirelli. Ps. I have forester xt 2015 i wanted to by in those years de geo 015 are lighter more road oriented but with 3psf ...but wnded with latitude cross michelin in 235 55 r18. Awesome tire. Saludos chile
I have no personal experience with the Destination AT but the Destination is less of an all terrain tire than these. However I’ve had no additional noise and I’m closing in on 35k on the Wildpeak.
Great video. Did you have any issues regarding oil pressure? I've heard that installing a cooler like that could be a problem due to the lack of pressure in the whole CVT system... All the best.
@@j.s3591 got mine a while ago, not as much gallons per minute as I was hoping so it's not really good for rinsing a car, but it's great for everything else. There's even a company that sells a. Mini portable hose reel for $30 that gives you 30ft more of hose length, and you can easily roll it back up.
It was originally but you can’t fit larger than a factory size tire in the spare location and that is after some significant hammering. My tires are a bit over an inch and a half larger than stock. Also, if I have coolers and gear in the cargo area and get a flat I have to remove all of that to get to the spare.
Any idea when an XL load rated 245/65/17 or a 245/70/16 will be available? They look to be a good alternative to the Mickey Thompson Baja Boss A/T and I would love to see them be available at either Discount Tire or Tire Rack.
No idea on release yet. From what I can tell Milestar had to shift from manufacturing them in Europe to USA. So that may be what is causing the delay in these coming to market. I’ll be back at Overland Expo West in May and I’ll be making a follow video to this one.
Hope you have notifications turned on. I just ordered 245/65R17 111T XL for my Maverick. But I got em off Amazon, don't know if that matters to you. $723 after tax. Which made them $200 cheaper than the Wildpeak AT4W I was going to order.
@@skullsroad3642 I ended up going another way, in early 1/24, when two tires I was considering, the Milestar's and the Nokian Outpost nAT, both became available. I ended up with some 245/70/16's, that I put on some 16x7 Methods, I got on closeout. So far, I can say I much prefer the Baja Boss, , on My Bronco Sport. Are you on the Maverick Forum?
