Kumho  Ecsta PS31

Really like this tires. Moved on from BFG KO2 to the new Wildpeaks. It was a great decision and I couldn't be happier. I am very happy with the traction in both dry, wet and light snow. Only concern is, from day one they made some road noise.

This tire has been nearly perfect. It’s outstanding on dry and wet roads and good in light snow. I haven’t tested them off-road other than a few fire roads but I suspect they will be excellent.

Great tires with a ton of grip. Great in the snow and wet and surprisingly quiet.

Tiretrack was super helpful in getting us our tires. So far in the ice and snow they have been wonderful

Unreal in the winter driving in Syracuse, NY. Even Deep snow it grips.

I have them on my outback to replaced the stock yokohama geolandar set. Had a sidewall pinch cut while offroading with the yoko even though they were still under 19k miles since bought the car new.

Noticed the increased weight and took 2-3 mpg decreased on my average fill-up. The tires are surprisingly quite for having pretty aggressive thread pattern. I noticed the lane-centering with eyesight system is less wavering and staying straight better than stock yoko.

Don't really mind the mpg drop as the AT4W got thicker sidewalls (got sidewall pinch cut on my stock Yokohama geolandar at 18k miles). Might be too aggressive and heavy for those using the car mainly for commuting. They do have wildpeak AT trail that are less heavy and less expensive but still 3 peaks rated (good snow performance)

Great snow and ice traction as i took them to the ski resorts quite often and never have any issue with traction. Haven't try them on muddy area but handles dirt road and trails. Handle rocky sections quite decent but the weight is definitely noticeable

The tire noise definitely louder than the geolandars but not annoying at all. The geolandar is actually some of the most quiet AT tires in the market. The wildpeaks are pretty quiet considering it has more aggressive thread pattern, heavier, and thicker side walls.

It would be interesting to see if the drop on avg mpg can be reduced by mounting these tires on ultralight wheels, such as enkei RPF1.

Overall, great offroad performance, slightly noisier than stock set, definitely heavier and reduced average mpg. If you want solid AT set, you should consider this tire set compared to KO2.

However, for most daily drivers with mostly pavement driving, you might want to be aware of the reduced mpg and slightly louder tire/road noise.

I came from the Falken AT3W's (predecessor to the AT4W) which had 65k miles and about 3/32" left. Going to a new tire will always feel instantly better, but these tires are a great balance of lower noise, fantastic wet weather, great dry weather and a responsive feeling tire. I haven't yet been able to really get these off road and haven't had them in snow yet. But based on how these feel thus far, the design changes from the AT3W and subjective reviews of others, I have full confidence these will be every bit as good or better than the AT3Ws.

First up, you’re not buying these tires to get better mileage, if you are you will be sorely disappointed. You’re also not buying these tires to be quiet and comfortable on the highway, because you will also be sorely disappointed. You are buying these for off-road Driving in dirt and mud, because you’re surely not buying these to drive in rain or snow. These might be the worst tires I’ve ever owned for rain and snow, but for dirt, gravel, and sand they are very good. Anything below 40°F and traction is miserable & if you have a heavy downpour you’re almost guaranteed of feeling like you’re hydroplaning. Their tread compound is clearly not designed for cold weather despite carrying the three peak snow logo. I’m not sure what snow conditions they tested these in, but I tested them at 15°F this winter with 3” of snow in the ground and could easily spin all four wheels of my Outback Wilderness when these tires were brand new. On another set of wheels I have winter tires that have gone through 5 winters and they perform better in a foot of snow than these did in 3”. I get it, these are not winter tires, but if they’re going to carry the 3 peak logo they need to have significantly better traction than they do.

Anyway, they look fantastic and they go great off-road in mud and dry conditions, just don’t assume you’re going to drive them through torrential rain or even light snow and have great traction.

Great ride and handling, wear factor is great.

Good looking tire. Ride quality and noise are good, but time will tell.

I am really happy with the purchase of these tires, I did thorough research against other brands vs cost and performance before choosing these and had them special ordered from Tirerack as they were not available yet in most retail stores. At the time these tires were and still are the newest version of the Falken WildPeak A/T4W. I only have about 4K miles of mostly city driving (no off roading) with maybe a few hundred highway miles but they show almost no wear, have a above average aggressive all terrain tread pattern and are surprisingly quiet. These do fit a stock Jeep Gladiator Sport S, are very close to a 33inch tall tire which is what I wanted and do stick out much more than the factory 31.5 inch tires. I bought these tires due to the previous positive reviews on the Falken WildPeak A/T3W, the expected 65,000 mile tread life, snowflake rating and size.

These tires are as good if not better than the AT3W. Would highly recommend at this point. I feel like they are wearing better to this point actually.

Went from the AT3's to the AT4's, Great ride comfort, no tire noise , doing great so far. I got 56,000 miles out of the AT3's, AT4's say 60,000 miles we will see.
