I just spoke to Falken about the WildPeak M/T tires that are coming out. I was told not to expect them until early 2015. There is a chance that they could be out late 2014 but 2015 more realistic.

Just got my WildPeaks in and I was kinda bummed. I ordered 35x12.5.18. They are not much bigger then my stockers. still waiting for the wheels to arrive so i can get them all mounted and installed but im seriously considering sending them back and going bigger

Just got a set of 37" Wildpeaks on factory beadlock capable wheels. I think they ride quieter on the road than the stock BFGs. I'll find out how the do in the dirt this weekend.

I have had mine balanced twice by 2 different shops. On the highway mine ride ruff. I'm getting ready to take them to a 3rd shop for balancing because they don't feel balanced.

No balance issues with mine. Just spent Memorial Day weekend running fire roads up in the mountains. Tires performed great. I'm definitely sold on them.

Have them "road force balance" them. If the shop can't, find one that can. You may have a few tires out of round.
I know that the 37's I just put on were slapping the steering wheel all the way home. I was disappointed on my initial drive home. Found out that two of the 6 tires I bought were WAAAY over the specs for out of round guidelines. Those found a home on my two spares till I can deal with the tire shop I purchased from.

I am now happy as all have stated. Much better off road tire IMO, but the results could be skewed as I went from OEM to 37 of another brand.
On road ride is great too.

Yea they were road force balanced at Tires Plus. I did have 1 tire that was out of round and had to buy a replacement. Now the ride is improved but still not smooth.
