Tires Falken or Cooper
I put Falken RT660s on my STI. The grip level is amazing but a heavy, AWD car can be hard on these tires unless you are set up with the appropriate amount of camber.
For me, Falken/Sumitomo has been the perfect balance between value and performance
My Falken tires are extremely affordable and they grip better than my Pirellis in every real-world situation that I’ve needed the grip.
used to sell tires for years. starfire or mastercraft were good. they're a lower tier tire produced by cooper that still retain a decent warranty.
My own choice is Cooper, not the cheapest, but it definitely lasted longer than any of my Goodyear or Firestone tires I had in the past.
Just put on 265/65/18 SL wildpeak at4w on an otherwise stock 2012 GX and can confirm that they will fit with no rubbing. Compared to the Michelin latitudes that were on before, the feel on the road is noticeably better, i.e. more plush but also more planted... if that makes sense. Road noise is minimal difference in my mind but I have a skybox on top so maybe I'm just used to it. Being in pnw, wet traction is a must and these should do the trick.
Have a set on Mustang Gt for over a year. Absolutely no issues whatsoever. Quiet, decent in the rain, better grip than the Falkens it replaced.
Great light-duty all-terrain tires. I bought a set (255/75-17) for my Jeep Wrangler. It hasn't snowed since I bought these tires, but they have excelled in the rain and on dry pavement.
Ages ago my boss put Falken on the company van. They lasted about 20,000 miles
Mine were horrible in the rain. I swapped them out for Cooper AT3s.
