Tires Falken or Maxxis
For my current car, I got the Falken Wildpeak A/T Trail tires. They have the 3 mountain peak emblem so they're rated for snow. Have had them for close to 2 weeks and so far, so good.
Better tires. The Telly is actually pretty capable off-road on mild trails/loose terrain/snow/etc. with the right tires. The standard Michelin Primacys won't cut it though. I put some Falken Wildpeak AT Trail tires and now this thing handles this stuff better than my '21 Bronco did. (2024 EX AWD).
I went with Falken all season light offroad and they make the car look awesome and feels good in the city.
Falken makes pretty good rain friendly quality tires
Finally bought bigger tires, Falken Wildpeak A/T 255/55r18, and couldn’t be happier. Even without NVH foam, the ride is quieter, smoother, and less bumpy.
When the OEM tires wore out, I replaced them with Falken Wildpeaks. My 14 has 221,000 miles on it.
Ran the Falkens on my Gladiator and on my current Wrangler in New England and loved them. They are fantastic in the snow and ice and not overly loud.
I’ve enjoyed mine as well, and I’m about due for a new set.
But, just tossing this out there, I found they aren’t as grabby in soft sand or wet snow as I would have liked (conditions I find myself in).
They’re hyped up, and I liked mine, but don’t plan on getting them again.
First set dry rot within 2yr and the other had irreparable sidewall chunk damage within 5k miles. Terrible quality on that model.
2025 forester with 3200 miles on the falken tires. I have already had 2 instances of road damage. First a sheet metal screw in the tread and now a puncture and tear on the inner sidewall due to a piece of gravel.
