Falken Wildpeak M/T Tyres Fitted to a Ford Ranger – A Proper Job for Halifax Roads and Beyond

Last week at Pellon Tyres, we had a cracking-looking blue Ford Ranger come in for a free tyre check.

Now, we always say it’s worth popping in for a quick look over, especially with the state of some of the roads around Halifax and Calderdale. Potholes, rough tracks, and the odd muddy lane up towards Ogden or over the tops can take their toll.

Sure enough, this Ranger needed two new tyres.

After a bit of advice and a good chat, the owner decided to go for a proper upgrade — fitting two 265/60R18 119/116Q Falken Wildpeak M/T tyres.

And I’ve got to say… a great choice 👍

A Tyre Built for Proper Work: Ford Ranger for Falken Tyres

Falken Wildpeak M/T

These aren’t your average road tyres. The Falken Wildpeak M/T is what we call a mud-terrain tyre, built for drivers who need something tougher than standard all-terrain options.

They’re designed to handle just about anything you throw at them:

  • Deep mud
  • Loose gravel
  • Rocky tracks
  • Snow and rough conditions

The tread pattern is aggressive, with big chunky blocks that bite into soft ground, while the tyre also has reinforced sidewalls to cope with harsh conditions and heavy loads.

One thing I like about these Falkens is that they’re not just for off-road use. Despite looking quite rugged, they’re still surprisingly decent on normal roads thanks to their tread design.

So for someone using a pickup for both work and everyday driving – ideal.

Perfect Match for Ford Ranger for Falken Tyres

The Ford Ranger is one of those vehicles that’s really taken off over here in the UK.

Although the Ranger name actually dates back to the early 1980s in America, it didn’t properly arrive in the UK market until around 1998.

Back then, pickups were mainly workhorses — builders, farmers, and tradesmen.

But things have changed a lot.

These days, the Ranger has become a bit of an all-rounder:

  • Work during the week
  • Family use at weekends
  • Towing, camping, and outdoor life

Modern versions are packed with comforts you’d expect in a car but still keep that tough pickup ability with a proper load bed and strong towing capability.

It’s no surprise really that the Ranger has become one of the most popular pickups on UK roads.

And around Calderdale, you can see why — whether it’s builders working in town, farmers up in the hills, or folk just wanting something solid for winter driving.

Why These Tyres Suit Calderdale Conditions: Ford Ranger for Falken Tyres

Living and working around Halifax, we see all sorts:

  • Steep hills
  • Wet roads
  • Muddy back lanes
  • Winter snow on the tops

That’s exactly where tyres like the Falken Wildpeak M/T come into their own.

They’ve got features like the following:

  • Deep tread grooves to clear mud and keep grip
  • Strong sidewalls to resist damage from rough ground
  • Excellent traction in tricky conditions

All designed to keep you moving when standard tyres would struggle.

For someone using their Ranger properly — not just for show — these tyres make a real difference.

And that’s what matters.

The Falken Wildpeak M/T is:

  • Tough
  • Reliable
  • Well suited to UK conditions
  • And ideal for a working pickup like the Ranger

Final Thoughts from the Workshop: Ford Ranger for Falken Tyres

Another car rolled in straight after the Kia, and once again it showed the value of something we always encourage here at Pellon Tyres – a free tyre check. This time it was a Vauxhall Astra, owned by a local customer who had a sneaking suspicion his tyres were past their best.

As it turned out, he was absolutely right.

A free tyre check confirms the obvious: Astra Owner Chooses Falken Tyres

Once the Astra was up on the ramp and the tyres checked properly, it was clear that all four tyres were worn down to the point where replacement was the sensible and safest option. The spare tyre, however, was in good condition, so that was left alone – no point changing what doesn’t need changing.

The customer decided to go for a full set of Falken tyres, a choice we’re always happy to fit. To finish the job off properly, we also carried out a wheel alignment, making sure those new tyres would wear evenly and give the best possible service life.

It’s a job we do day in, day out, but it’s one that makes a huge difference to how a car drives and how long tyres last.

A bit of Vauxhall Astra history in the UK

The Vauxhall Astra is one of those cars that feels like it’s always been around – and in many ways, it has. First introduced in the UK in 1980, replacing the old Vauxhall Kadett, the Astra quickly became one of Britain’s best-selling cars.

Over the decades, it’s been a firm favourite with:

  • Families
  • Company car drivers
  • Tradespeople
  • And everyday motorists wanting something dependable

Built for British roads and British driving habits, the Astra has evolved through many generations, becoming safer, more refined, and more economical along the way. Even today, you see them everywhere around Halifax and Calderdale, from town centres to hill roads and country lanes.

It’s a proper all-rounder – comfortable enough for longer journeys but tough enough for daily local use.

Why tyres wear out quicker around here: Astra Owner Chooses Falken Tyres

Tyres don’t live an easy life in our part of Yorkshire. Halifax and the wider Calderdale area are hard on tyres for a few simple reasons:

  • Steep hills
    Pulling away uphill and braking downhill both accelerate tyre wear.
  • Narrow, winding roads
    Constant steering input and cornering scrub the tyres more than straight motorway driving.
  • Rough road surfaces
    Patches, repairs, and the odd pothole don’t do tyres any favours.
  • Stop-start traffic
    Town driving wears tyres far quicker than steady cruising.

This Astra showed fairly even wear, but the tread depth had simply reached the point where replacement was the right call.

Why wheel alignment matters: Astra Owner Chooses Falken Tyres

Fitting new tyres is only half the story. Without proper wheel alignment, even the best tyres can wear out far sooner than they should.

Alignment ensures:

  • The wheels point in the correct direction
  • The tyres sit flat on the road
  • Steering feels straight and stable
  • Tyres wear evenly across the tread

Out of alignment, tyres can wear on the inside or outside edge without the driver noticing until it’s too late. With the roads around Calderdale, even a small knock from a pothole or kerb can knock things out.

That’s why we always recommend alignment when fitting a full set of tyres.

Why Falken tyres were a great choice

Falken tyres are a brand we rate highly here at Pellon Tyres. Originally developed with a strong motorsport background, Falken has built a reputation for producing tyres that offer:

  • Excellent grip in wet and dry conditions
  • Strong, predictable handling
  • Good tread life
  • Very good value for money

They’re particularly well suited to UK conditions, where damp roads and sudden weather changes are the norm rather than the exception. For a car like the Astra, Falken tyres strike a great balance between performance, safety, and cost.

Once fitted and aligned, the difference was immediately noticeable. The car drove straighter, felt more planted, and the steering was sharper – exactly what you want on local roads.

Final thoughts from Pellon Tyres: Astra Owner Chooses Falken Tyres

This Astra is a perfect example of how a free tyre check can catch things at the right time. No drama, no breakdown, just sensible maintenance done before it became a problem.

Good tyres and correct alignment are especially important around Halifax and Calderdale, where hills and bends demand more from your car. With a fresh set of Falken tyres and proper alignment, this Astra is now set up to give safe, reliable service for many miles to come.

If you’re unsure about your tyres, pop in and let us take a look. A quick check costs nothing, and it can make all the difference.
