Ok Mr. Falken Rep guy you got my attention with these new A/T tires especially with the 3 ply sidewall. I was considering the Yokohama A/TS but after some reading im giving the new Falken's a good look but I do have two questions for you.
First question is. Can you post some of the specs of the JK in your photos like tire/wheel size, front/rear bumper, any engine performance modifications and any other modification on the Jeep.
Second question is can you post a link showing all the current sizes avaliable for the new A/T tire and any possible sizes in the near future.

Thanks for checking it out... I will try to answer your questions.
In many of the current photos of our JK it was still running 325/65R18 (about a 35x13.50R18). This is the tire size we ran at TDS and Moab. In June, we switched over to our 37x12.50R17. Wheels are currently 17x9 Ultra Wheels which were converted over to beadlocks by OMF in Riverside, CA. In the pictures up til now the bumpers have been Schrockworks (front and rear) however those have been pulled off and replaced with new Poison Spyder stuff for the upcoming JK Experience event. The only engine mods are the K&N intake and Dynomax exhaust. The other mods are Currie Rockjock 60's with 5.38's, AEV hood, Rock Hard cage and skids, Rhinolined interior, Tuffy accessories all over, Custom Paint, Off Road Evolution Double Throw Down Cantilever suspension with King Double Bypass Coilovers, MasterCraft seats, I am sure I am missing something. Check out the JK Experience Facebook page for more pics.
Here is a link to the current sizes available in the Wildpeak.

HOLY CRAP! Thats a lot of MODS i should have just asked what wasnt done to the JK. What would really help me sway my decision on this tire is how well it handles in the water. I live in Houston TX and it constantly floods here and my "must" is wet traction handling. In all honestly i will be driving more in the rain than offroading and would take a tire that has great wet weather traction over a tire that handles great offroad, I dont want to hit a puddle of water going 60 on highway and feel drifting. Ive already had several bad experience with Goodyear on this one and I need to feel confident driving down the road in the JK knowing that my ride is not going to drift or loose traction because of some crappy tires. Also which tires dont have the 3 ply wall or do all the tires come with the 3 ply wall?

I've had these tires on for a week and they are awesome! No complaints
will give a 5000 miles report in a few weeks when we get back from jk experience
I'm running them in 37x1250r17
I'll post more pics when I get in my office, I ran some trails, mud, and rocks with them over the weekend and they performed great

If you want feedback on the tires performance during the recent JK Experience, I would suggest visiting the JK Experience Facebook page (link below) and asking the participants so that you will get an objective response.

These look like very interesting tires. I'd love to try them out in 315/70R17 (depending on their price point of course) but January is a long way off. Timing, as they say, is everything. Bah!

That size is actually coming in early than originally anticipated... it should be available for sale within the next 30-45 days... it was originally scheduled for January. I will try to keep an eye out for them and let you know.
Price point will vary by retailer, but they will be priced right for a 35"!
Thanks,
Andrew

We will have a 325/80R16 available in October/November and it is almost the exact same OD and width as the 37's
Are the 325/80R16 what's mounted on the Spyder Locks? They look great. Any idea on pricing yet for the 37's (37x12.5x17)? Thanks.
