Tires Falken or Maxxis
Falken here for 40000km all year around here in canada, great in snow, offroad, gravel, bad on ice... But after two winter still alive without any "oh shit" moment. I will buy them again.
I purchased my set of Falken Wildpeaks A/T trails back in 2020 and since then used them on all sorts of terrain. They handled well, in snow, dirt and rain and on road manners were excellent. My only small complaint was the big drop in fuel economy (22 MPG average.). Well, they've been driven about 38k miles now since my Subaru Forester is used for our family road trips and the tires are down to 2/32nd of tread.
I have a set of Wildpeak AT3/W. They are a excellent tough tire with good tread wear and can handle winter weather. I off road them quite regularly and they are on par with BFG K02.
Paid $341 per tire for my Falken’s about 5 months ago through Tire Rack
Damn they look good too. MPG hasn't changed, no more road noise than before, and speedo is still accurate (according to Google maps.)
Im currently running falken wildpeak AT3s there kinda heavy and harder to balance than the Toyo open country at3. I got 70k out of my Toyo’s amazing tire better in sloppy conditions than the falkens for sure.
I did Falken wild peak 275/60r20 (but I have 20” wheels). 33s work well
Falken Wildpeak AT3 or the Mickey Thompson Baja Boss are pretty decent tires for your buck.
I've been riding my **Maxxis Rekon 2.4" 3C EXO** for about **700km / 435mi** now and even though I was not over the top impressed, the mix between low rolling resistance and decent grip in dry conditions was satisfying and totally met my demands - even on some rough, deep red (S2-S3) trails.
**On my last ride**, my impressions changed dramatically. The ground conditions might have been slightly looser than most of my rides but certainly nothing I havent already seen before or ridden on over the last couple of months.
After only a few kilometers, I felt **zero confidence in the tires to grip, they dealt scarily bad with loose (dry) trails** and I even crashed once
I had falkens for about 18 months and hated them in the snow. The Falkens did better the more snow they had to grip onto, but when we would get less than an inch it was like driving on slicks.
