Tires Falken or Maxxis
I had a set of Falken Azenis RT615K+ for about a year, they were great.
I had Wildpeak ATW3’s on my old Frontier. Great tire. I also had DynaPro At2’s on that truck and they were ok as well, nothing amazing.
Fallen wildpeak trail at. Great tires. 3 peak snow rated. Fabulous tires. Took a couple mpg hit over previous tires.
I am running Falken winter tires, they are SWEET.
My wife’s CX-5 has these tires and I can definitely vouch that they look awesome, handle snow very well, and do great “off-road.” Miles better than the stock tires.
I did replace with wildpeaks on my Crosstrek and I have to say they're 10/10, would buy again. No additional road noise, handles well on the road, and significantly better performance off the pavement.
Check out the Falken ZIEX ZE100 A/S. Mazda made these standard on some Mazda6 trim levels. Traded my 2016 6 in for a 2018 6 and it had these. Felt like the car was riding on a layer of marshmallows. Super quiet.
I bought a Trek Fuel EX this year, which comes with XR4 tires. I switched to Maxxis DHR/DHF after a month, and the improvement in grip is very noticeable. On technical climbs, its pretty easy for me to lose traction with the XR4 when I'm putting a lot of power down on a steep section. With the Maxxis tires on those same climbs, I never spin out. On the other hand, the rolling resistance is higher.
Because in general the 512 sucks as tire, the 912 is good but wears out fast, and I've had the best experience with the 452 out of all three models
Car is terrible with stock Falken tires. It goes OK, but stops terrible. I was actually suprised when I took mine out for the first time in the snow. Slide down the hill.
