The WildPeak A/T Trail is Falken's On-Road All-Terrain tire developed for drivers of crossovers and SUVs who crave adventure and want a tire with the durability to explore off-road, yet matches the dynamic characteristics of modern crossover vehicles on the road. The WildPeak A/T Trail is designed to deliver rugged capability and aggressive good looks combined with pleasant on-road manners, confident dry and wet traction, and light snow performance sufficient to earn the tire industry's severe snow service certification and three-peak mountain snowflake (3PMSF) symbol.
The WildPeak A/T Trail is engineered to complement the unibody construction of crossovers and small SUVs to deliver durability and enhanced handling year-round. The silica-enriched compound is molded into a purposeful, symmetric pattern and is designed to provide durability and longevity over a wide range of conditions and temperatures. Wet traction is enhanced by the high-silica compound along with the notches and edges of the independent tread blocks. Deep starting tread depths, open shoulders, and wide, circumferential grooves aid hydroplaning resistance where standing water is present. The upper sidewall features a rugged construction and over-the-shoulder ribs to help prevent punctures from rocks, sticks and other terrain encountered off-road. Falken's 3D Canyon sipes interlock below the surface for stability in all conditions while also creating biting edges that enhance light snow and ice traction and help the tire earn the 3PMSF symbol.
Falken WildPeak A/T Trail tires allow drivers to personalize their vehicles by offering dual sidewall designs on every tire. One side features traditional, serrated lettering, while the other has a raised, three-dimensional style. All tires feature both designs, allowing drivers to choose their look based on which is mounted outward on the wheel.
A two-ply, polyester casing enhances durability without compromising ride quality. Twin, high-strength steel belts support the tread area and are reinforced by a polyamide cap ply, improving handling and providing high-speed capability.

The Crossover, or CUV, is hands-down the most popular vehicle in America. Last year in our CUV test, we used the Alfa Romeo Stelvio to test all-season and all-weather touring tires. This year, the field expanded to include all-terrain and performance truck products, representing the full range of tires drivers are installing on these vehicles. Obviously, with a test this diverse, it’s not so much about which one tire rises to the top, but rather how each category brings its own strengths to the table. When comparing multiple tires from one category, it's how they stack up against each other. So, sit back, relax, and enjoy Test 8!

Reviews indicate the Yokohama ADVAN A052 excels in dry traction, with users highlighting exceptional grip, quick warm-up, and autocross/track dominance, often resulting in faster lap times. Wet performance is praised for confident handling in damp conditions, though hydroplaning occurs in standing water. Treadwear receives cautious notes-many report rapid wear under heavy track use, emphasizing alignment and pressure management to extend lifespan. While some achieve multiple heat cycles, the trade-off for extreme grip means shorter longevity, aligning with expectations for a tire prioritizing peak performance over durability.
