New Boots & ??

Decided to treat the old girl (L322 3.0 vogue diesel) to some new boots and a proper 4 wheel alignment. Falken Wld Peak AT3WA's, the ones with the blue writing embossed on the sides, they look awesome and as if they can take on the world!
£600 all in....a lot of bucks but sure footing that they even guarantee for 80,000 miles!
If you look closely she is on the Channel 4 Bangers for cars show, she is always sitting on the right of camera and is in every intro, not sure what they will say about her when they get round to off road vehicles but they didn't call me in for a on screen chat and didn't get my written permission to 'rag it' on screen, just static shots.

Blue writing should turn white as you use it !

I've got those tyres, all black though

What exactly do they guarantee? Don't perish? Do stay round?
The can't guarantee performance as tread wears
If you abuse them then they will wear out before 80k

I'm not asking anyone in particular, just thinking out loud

Really? They'll wear faster then!

AT tyres have deep grooves so should take a long while to reach the wear limit. My Grabber AT2 were £100 a corner fitted when I put them on but however many years later they still look decent.

they are all season, not exclusively 'winter', same as grabbers

many thks , Must confess I always assumed they were winter tyres if they had a AT3WA rating, but every day is a school day

do have a set of 19” rims which I’m going to fit at some stage to replace my 17” rims, more than likely will fit a set of these wildpeaks and just leave them on all year round seeing I do such low mileage

also noticed they’ve gone up to around £150 each

They seem nice enough, but do skip over grids a bit, which i never noticed with the grabbers, though the p38 isn't as heavy if i recall, plus very different suspension

Banger? Didn’t they see the cup holders!
Mark had similar, but he gave them permission to rag it
