I took a set of 7/32 tread depth firestone ft140\u2019s off my little daily driver Toyota Corolla and went with a set of Falken Aklimates. They run quieter, cost less, and last longer than the cross climates (which I also sell) and are my most recommended tire for cars and small SUV\u2019s.
I used to run Mickey Thompson mud tires on my Jeep. The last set had something like 60% tread life remaining when they were so cupped out and obnoxious I couldn't stand it anymore. I yanked them off, and decided to give a set of Falken Wildpeak AT3s a try. The Falkens were significantly less expensive, better mannered, and 40-50,000 miles later, they're barely even worn. On the same vehicle. Without any mods or maintenance to the suspension, which obviously wasn't the reason the Mickeys cupped out. These are excellent tires, and I would buy Falkens again, no question. On the other side of the line, I got a set of Sumitomos for my truck, and when I wore those out, I dug deep and ponied up for a set of Michelins the next time. The Sumitomos just didn't do it for me.
We replaced the stock tires with some AT falkens. Massive difference in grip. In all weather conditions. Highly recommend, at a ~5% sacrifice to fuel economy on hybrid.
When I ordered my 2024 xlt 2.0 4k tow Maverick I opted for the Falken wildpeak AT3 tires. They're a little louder than all season but not much. Average around 34 mpg in the summer and 29 in the winter great traction, have around 30.000 miles on them with plenty of tread left
I had a choice, AWD or an Eco Boost motor. The AWD ended up being a better buy. I know I’m going to miss the Eco Boost.
I chose the AWD because of boon docking. I put Falken Wildpeak 235/65/16 tires on it.
I cant believe how good the Falken Sincera are and they’re cheap. Only bought Michelin for years. Never liked anything cheap or Continental, Yokohama.
Our best selling light truck tire is by far the Wildpeak AT4W. It's a great all around tire that also looks good and wears very well. They are not the best tire in the snow but they still do pretty well. For an all weather passenger car tire the Falken Aklimate is also very hard to beat. I pulled off a set of 7/32nds tread depth Firestone ft140's off my little daily driver corolla and put a set of those on. The difference in snow traction is unbelievable. I drove home from work tonight on 5" plus of unplowed snow and was at times dragging the belly on my little car. It just chewed right along with no issues. With the firestones I still would have made it home, but a couple of stop signs that I had to stop at and take off going uphill would have required running the stop sign and hoping no-one was coming in order to do so. The Aklimates just bit in and dug through everything.
I had Open Country tires and they were horrible. Currently have falken wildpeak and they aren't amazing but 10x better than open country from my experience.
The 2 sets of Falkens didn’t last 6 months before some started separating. Tried to get two warrantied, they just didn’t respond.
The factory 265/70R18 Wildpeak AT3WA tires are at 3/32 at 10k miles and 4 months of use. The dealership or Falken would not help and said that was normal wear. Am I wrong in thinking they should last longer? 80% Highway, 15% curvy back roads under 35 mph, 5% gravel driveway. Flat and even wear.
