Tires Falken or Tesla
Apex VS-5 17x9
Falken Azenis RT615K+ in 255/40/17.
I got my spyder a set of hypergrams a couple years ago...They look great, come in a ton of spyder friendly sizes...Falken azenis rt615k+ are a great performance oriented tire, lots of grip.
Definitely buy atleast an all terrain tires(falken recommended if you have the budget) for your driving habits.
On a stock ’24 SR5 4x4 with 18” TRD Pro wheels, the biggest you can usually run without rubbing is 275/65R18 it fills the wheel well nicely and still clears at full lock.
Falken Wildpeak AT3W surprised me they cut through that slick layer way better than expected and stay predictable in rain
Honestly, if you want something that’s actually good and won’t punch your wallet in the face, Falken and Kumho are the two I recommend the most. They ride nice, last a long time, and don’t have that cheap-tire sketchy feel. Falken is usually the sweet spot solid grip in rain, quiet, and priced way lower than Michelin/Continental.
I don't think savings should be the main driver to get a Tesla. A lot of things can influence if you save money or not compared to an ICE car. In my case...yes. Insurance costs vary by a ton of factors. Where I live insurance is paid annually and mine is $1500 for a full cover, which is like $125 a month. More than your average ICE car, that pays about $800 yearly. However I've saved money in every other aspect. I have solar so I charge for free. And the only maintenance I've paid were $15 to a local tire shop to rotate my tires and 2 gallons of wiper fluid.
I just went through the same thing and ended up picking the wildpeaks. In my size i could only get E rated KO3s, and didnt want to go that heavy. I havent gotten out yet so cant speak to that, but on the road they dont feel much different to the OEM trailhunter tires. I actually think maybe a little worse in wet, but not to the point of being an issue (and its been pretty wet where im at)
KO3\u2019s suck these days. Go with the Falken Wildpeak AT4\u2019s or the Toyo Open Country AT3 is better in the snow from what I\u2019ve experienced.
I got the falkens from discount tire. They were a good price but I don't think I would get them again. All else being equal they don't track as well as the Yokohama I had.
