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 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.
I put Falken Wildpeak 235's on my '09 Liberty back in April and I'm really happy with them. Great traction off-road and quiet enough to be my daily drive. Would highly recommend them.
Update: Got the tires installed today. I noticed a major drop in road noise. I was using 9yr old Kumhos, that sat in the garage most of their life. Other than that, no noticeable difference going from 225/40 to 225/45.
Some shitty Achilles tires to Falken RT-615s.
225/40/19 snows are what i run on the stock wheel, the Kumho Wintercraft WP72 is a killer tire for the money ($173 on simple tire)
Wow great work man thanks! I have Falken FK510 tires on my S. FWIW, excellent tire but holy shit was I surprised to see the rears were almost bald after 1 summer. (About 10000 kms)
I have the LX Platinums on my GLI. After 20,000+miles, they show little wear. Handling is definitely noticeably worse than the original summer tires, but not awful. Winter traction was surprisingly good.
No experience with the Yoko's, but i've had about 5 sets of 512's and they don't last long, even with a good alignment.
