Falken Tire is offering more choices for SUV buyers with their new set of all-terrain and rugged terrain tires. Philippine distributor of Falken Tire, JM Far East, Inc., recently launched two cutting-edge additions to their Wildpeak lineup: the Wildpeak A/T4W and R/T01. These models are engineered with Falken’s latest advancements in durability, traction, and versatility, setting new standards in all-terrain and rugged-terrain performance for adventurers, off-road enthusiasts, and everyday drivers with varied needs.
Wildpeak A/T
The Wildpeak A/T4W is designed to enhance performance over its widely popular predecessor, the Wildpeak A/T3W. It offers all-terrain versatility, combining off-road durability with smooth on-road handling.
The new rubber compound gives the Wildpeak A/T4W up to 20-percent increased mileage, allowing drivers to tackle any terrain with ease while enjoying a quieter, more comfortable ride. Increased tread rigidity offers improved towing experience compared to the A/T3W model. Proprietary three-ply Duraspec Sidewall technology on selected sizes offers better sidewall protection and durability on rough terrain. Staggered shoulder blocks provides additional traction in rugged off-road conditions. Updated design includes heat diffuser technology which enhances stability by dispersing heat within the tire. Serrated letters on one side and raised solid letters on the other give extra sidewall protection.
Wildpeak R/T
Designed for lifted trucks, SUVs, and high-powered diesel pickups, the Wildpeak R/T01 sets a new standard in the rugged terrain tire category. Featuring a hybrid terrain tread pattern, the R/T01 combines the tenacious off-road traction of an M/T with the tread life and stability expected from an A/T.
Built to deliver a balance of traction, durability, and longevity, the Wildpeak R/T01 is the tire of choice for those who spend as much time on the road as on rugged terrains. Classified as a Professional Off-Road tire, it carries a POR marking along with that, its HD marking indicates it can be used for heavy-duty applications. On certain sizes, it has proprietary three-ply Duraspec Sidewall technology. Its aggressive tread pattern with extra-deep grooves give it unmatched off-road capability on rocky, muddy, and uneven surfaces. Its Tectonic Tread Blocks with Step-Down Support give it high block stiffness with minimized movement, enhancing tread life, stability, and grip. Offset shoulder blocks with stone ejectors provides enhanced off-road traction and prevents stones from embedding in the tread. Its aggressive upper sidewall protects against sharp rocks and provides traction on loose surfaces and challenging slopes. Its Ultimate Hybrid Terrain Tread Pattern: High contact-ratio center increases rubber-road contact, ensuring on-road stability. Its high-performance stability delivers precise handling on rugged trails and remains responsive at high speeds. And just as important, both tires are covered with a five-year warranty from the date of purchase, regardless of manufacturing date.
“We’re thrilled to expand the Wildpeak line with these two groundbreaking models. This demonstrates JM Far East, Inc.’s commitment to this ever-growing, vital segment of the automotive industry,” said Winston Manabat, President of JM Far East, Inc. “Both the Wildpeak A/T4W and R/T01 are designed to meet the demands of today’s drivers who seek durability, versatility, and confidence wherever they go. Whether for daily commutes or extreme off-road adventures, these tires are built to perform.”
