Tires Falken or Kumho
Just got mine a few weeks ago! 265/70R17, much quieter and so much better in rain than my KO2s were even when they were brand new. I got SL, went back and forth between SL and E. I really wanted them to have a C-class LT tire but not available in this size
I really like the Kumho Road Venture AT51. It's quiet on the road but still aggressive enough for rough terrain. It's also three peaks winter rated so it is an excellent tire in the snow and ice. Tread life has been good also
I had them years ago on a plow truck and holy crap were they good in the snow.
My Wildpeak at3 held up to 90k miles. Highway use with cell tower trails between highway runs. They are a great tire.
I have just over 1000 miles on the falkens, and on road, I don't think I could tell the difference between them and the Michelin crossover tires that I had before. They're obviously much better off road.
Mostly road driving with a little off road. I love them.
I’m happier with the Falkens, to be honest. Quiet on the road and show less wear.
Leaving aside whether or not the mechanic should have changed them, the difference in quality and performance between Kumho and Bridgestone is negligible, virtually nil.
Got a new set of Kumho TA51a tires 6 months ago, 3K miles in, the tread depth was already down to about half, to 6/32 ", Wth with this tread wear?
I just do normal city driving, nothing crazy, and all 4 wheels are perfectly aligned.
First set dry rot within 2yr and the other had irreparable sidewall chunk damage within 5k miles. Terrible quality on that model.
