I settled on Falken Ziex because a local shop had them in stock at a reasonable price ($110 each before the extended warranty, etc. shakedown) and Falken rates them as 4.5/5 stars for rolling resistance (and they don't give all of their tires that good a rating so it means *something*).
First long drive with them was today. Unfortunately, I don't have solid records of consumption for specific drives for the OEM tires, but the consumption was around 95% of the ABRP estimate going on battery %, which is not far off from what we are used to seeing. So my verdict is that they are not much worse than the OEM tires.
I just switched from the OE Michelin Pilots to Falken Azenis on my MYP. They are an optional brand listed on Tire Rack that are about $100 cheaper per tire than the Michelins. They are listed as an all season as well. My local Discount Tire ordered for me. Paid $1,200 for all four. Too soon to tell how they hold up but happy with looks and handling.
I used to have a Jeep Renegade Trailhawk that I put Falken Wildpeaks on, and those were fantastic tires. Not terribly loud on pavement, excellent traction in rain, and they looked nice.
Stock AT3s were garbage. I replaced them with AT4s and I love them.
I have a 2012 X3. Just put Falken Aklimates 235/60R17 on.
Just ditched my stock AT3’s on my 23 pro at 19k miles. Purchased the new AT4’s, stock size. Did a 3 hour off road loop with some light rock crawling on Saturday, new tires were amazing. Very quiet on road as well. Very happy so far.
Stock Flakens have been great for me! 12k miles and no issues off road.
I replaced them at 36k with Falken Wildpeaks. Immediately lost 4 mpg with the Falkens. They’ve lasted 60k though and I am now shopping for new ones.
Junk tires, falken tires may be good on pavement but once you go off road, complete failure. I got two flat tires going down graded dirt roads on my TRD Sequoia
2nd Gen not 5th but I replaced the ancient tires on my 4runner with wildpeaks and had them on for a few years. Hated them. Hated driving curves in the rain on pavement. Roundabouts would lose traction even in summer and as you know, these are NOT cars with a fast takeoff. They were quiet, I'll give them that.
