Ditched my Falkens the first week of ownership. Blizzaks rock!
The best upgrade i did was ditch the stock faulkens at about 20-25K of use and went with 225-55-17 all season tire for summer use.
1st thing I did when I got my Alltrack was drive to discount tire and trade my Falkens for some Conti PURECONTACT LS. Got $50 per tire on trade. OEM tires always seem to be cheap versions of their namesake that wear our early etc. Swap em now or before next winter.
I got falkens a couple days ago so far ride quality is great 150 a piece
And yet my S came with Falken Sincera (apparently 75,000 mi) tires that, other than being not the quietest rubber on earth, have been around a race track a few times, waded through a few inches of Chicago snow, and deal with the everyday "dodge dive dip dodge" nature of Atlanta driving no problem at up to 45MPG.
I have to add BFT blocks and 20mm spacers to avoid rubbing it looks better than stocks
I’ve had the Bridgestone Ecopias on my previous car 2010 Mazda 3 GT and now my 2019 Jetta. I have found better mileage on these tires than with others. Not great in heavy snow so I put snows on for the winter.
I have the Falkens and I couldn't be happier with them. I've been able to use them on dry road, wet road, sand and rocks and they just grip. And they're quieter on the highway than the Goodyear Wranglers they replaced.
Because in general the 512 sucks as tire, the 912 is good but wears out fast, and I've had the best experience with the 452 out of all three models
Car was on all seasons that were almost new(falken 912's). Going down the highway at 35 in 4th gear, I was running about 1k rpm and any touch of the gas would spin the tires. Starting on a hill was impossible.
