Tires Falken or Vredestein
Wildpeaks pretty much do it all. I run them on the daily in some very extreme/shit conditions. Silt, mud, sand, torrential rains, ice storms, snow. They just get around great. Also, 70k plus miles on a half ton and still had some life in them. 80% of my day is driving on rock roads.
Wildpeaks. I have them on my cummins and I love them. I jave the 35x12 and they have excelled in wet and snow.
I have the AT3/Ws and I love them. They're 3-peak rate, handle well on road, handle well offroad, and handle the ice/snow just fine. I'll continue to buy Falkens.
I’ve had wildpeak at3w on my Jeep xj for about 7 years and I’ve taken it to Mexico eight times down to my uncles ranch , it is one heavy duty off road trip to get there… also done a lot of highway driving, i’ve taken it up to Seattle to visit my niece. I’ve gone 4 x 4 in all over the desert in Nevada and Arizona, of course, in California also. And I have to say that my tires are still in great shape. They handle really great in the rain and the snow.
I have the wildpeaks. Went from the stock Michelins. The mpg went down about 2 or so….performance in snow is way up and the braking is way better. I don’t off-road but it works for me so far.
AT3w in stock size on a 17 GX here. Slightly more noisy than the factory rubber but unless you rode in it before and after the tire change, you wouldn’t notice. It’s that subtle. Waaaaay more capable. No loss in MPG that I have noticed. Win win.
If you’re in the Bay Area with limited winter driving go for the Vredestein Hitrac’s. They are quiet comfortable and within surly upgrade your ride.
I replaced a pair of 2013 accord tires with **Vredestein Quatrac 5** and those are serving me well from last 4 years and 15000 miles .
i agree, i run falken rt-615 on my mustang, they are ok in the rain. old pavement when wet proves to be a little tricky at times.
Vredesteins are shit for winter tires, at least in my experience. I had them on my C63, and it was like my car was wearing high heels. It was scary sloppy at 100km+ (60mph+) on the Autobahn.
