Tires Falken or DUNLOP
Falken tires are amazing! Sumitomo Heavy Industries, yo. Didn't use the Falken all-seasons that long, because I sold the car.
Had BF for a while and switch to Falken 2 years ago. I find falken are quiet and better on snow and ice.
I’m on my 3rd set of Falken AZENIS RT615K+ (I have two sets mount right now, one set has been to the dragon twice now. The other set is brand new on a set of LMs I haven’t run yet) First set I had I racked up about 20k miles in 2019 and 2020. I hit Wookies, alpine vagfair, spring breakdown, Radwood Detroit, EuroSummit, trips all over for daily driving. Rain isn’t a concern at all, standing water, slushy rain the tire is phenomenal as shown this past weekend at the tail of the dragon.
I love the wildpeak AT3s. Fantastic traction / durability
I’ve had both Terra’s and Wildpeaks. The wildpeakes outperform the Terra’s in every situation and they look a lot better as well.
I ran the Wildpeaks on a different vehicle & loved them! Looks great & traction through snow was superb!
I love my wildpeaks but they’re fucking HEAVY. If you don’t mind a fairly noticeable loss of power and -2/3 MPG’s then the wildpeaks are the best option for performance and looks.
I ran those Falkens for my first year in my Miata, running E-Stock. IIRC my pressures were closer to 30 PSI, +/- 1-2 PSI. I found that the Falkens got greasy once they started getting hot, so I switched to ZII's for the following season which had a much more predictable traction progression.
I'm on ZII's on my "street wheels" and while they're fine for around town, I've never liked them from a performance perspective. Compared to the purpose built 200TW cheater tires (e.g. RE71R, RT660, RS4) the ZII's give up a LOT of grip and probably seconds per lap at a racetrack.
They did ok on the track for a summer tire (240tw) but I think next season I'm going with something else. For the life of me I could not corner in these
