Tires Falken or Vredestein
I have the Quatracs for 3 years now and done 55k kms on them. Just now I can feel that they don't grip as well as they used to on cold, wet road. I had the same experience with every tyre after 3 years, so it was expected. I am very satisfied with them.
These Falkens were great in the snow and the very little dirt road driving I’ve done.
I have the Falken Sincera SN250 A/S and looking on Tire Rack, they seem to be a direct upgrade to your Laufenns for about $10 more each. Might be worth a try. I've found them to be quiet and absorbing of bumps and road weirdness. Also lightweight feeling.
I changed my tires to the non-OEM Wildpeak AT3W in size 285/75R18. Effectively 34" tall. No modifications/lift, only slight rub. Fuel economy is essentially unchanged with 75k kms in the larger tires. I didn't notice any significant difference in ride or noise. But I was much more pleased with the look of the tire filling out the wheel wells much better.
I went Falken Wildpeak AT4W P285/70R17 SL which is almost stock at 32.8" on my scs 17x8.5 +20 wheels and am totally satisfied. Almost stock weight and size but with a "truck" look.
Falken Wildpeak AT4 275 / 65 / 20. Yes millage takes a little hit but I drive alot of gravel roads also. For me highway noise is minimal. Basically a 34” tire. Also like the little wider foot print over stock.
Went 35 11.50 r18 wild peak at4 on my 2024 TRD pro. Can definitely tell a difference in weight. You get used to it. Fuel consumption went down a bit but not too bad. Rides fine. These have some noise but that's to be expected for AT tires. Don't regret the upgrade. Looks so much better.
Vredestein Hypertrac AS. They are an all season performance tire. Drove in all sorts of ice and snow last winter including driving up my mountain of a driveway. They are quiet, handle great and superb in the rain. My subie is a little snow machine, it is pretty amazing.
I have wildpeaks on my rav. They are great aside from they wear down fast. Just put Toyo open country’s on and so far after about 1k miles I like them the best.
They are/were shit tires. I can't believe how fast ours wore out.. replaced with falken wildpeak.
