Falken Tyre Europe GmbH, has announced a significant addition to its 4x4 tyre lineup. The WILDPEAK R/T01 is set to redefine off-road tyre standards, promising unparalleled performance on the most challenging terrains.
Designed with the spirit of adventure at its core, the WILDPEAK R/T01 is Falken's answer to the demands of extreme terrains. Whether it's the rugged trails of a mountain or the unpredictable paths of a forest, this tyre is engineered to deliver. Available from the first quarter of 2024, the R/T01 will be introduced in nine sizes, catering to a range of 16 to 20 inches, and boasting a 'Q' speed rating.
What makes the WILDPEAK R/T01 stand out is its unique tread design. It seamlessly combines the key attributes of Falken’s All-Terrain (A/T) and Mud-Terrain (M/T) versions. The result? A tyre that offers the perfect balance of traction, durability, and longevity. This innovation is expected to be a game-changer for sectors like construction, forestry, agriculture, and expedition. Moreover, off-road aficionados and adventure seekers are in for a treat.
The R/T01 is not just about performance; it's about confidence. Its hybrid off-road tread pattern, reminiscent of the WILDPEAK A/T, boasts a large contact area and rigid tread blocks. This ensures maximum mileage reliability, superior on-road performance, and unmatched off-road ruggedness.
For those who often find themselves on muddy terrains, the R/T01's open shoulder tread design ensures smooth traversal. Its self-cleaning properties offer an excellent defence against mud and rocks, guaranteeing optimal grip and traction. Additionally, the tyre's three-layer sidewall ensures cut resistance, robustness, and added protection, providing grip when it's most crucial.
Andreas Giese, Chief Corporate Officer at Falken Tyres Europe GmbH, confidently states, “The WILDPEAK R/T01 is our top model for off-road use. With these tyres, vehicles can traverse any surface, no matter how challenging.”
The introduction of the WILDPEAK M/T in 2018 marked Falken's commitment to off-road excellence. Since then, the company has consistently expanded its range, offering tyres with superior off-road capabilities. It's no wonder that brands like Mercedes Benz and RAM choose WILDPEAK range as their OE fit.
The WILDPEAK M/T's impressive performance during the 2022 Classic Dakar Rally in Saudi Arabia is a testament to Falken's dedication. Covering a staggering 7,500km across challenging terrains without a single puncture is no small feat.
