Tires Falken or YOKOHAMA
As someone who has a 04 2wd I can tell you best thing is a good set of tires. I run Falken Wildpeak AT4W's 265 65 17 we have decent snows in the winter I just lower the air pressure and go on my merry way.
Knocked back a PB at both track events on these. At VIR last weekend they were great. Very predictable and tons of grip. Shot for 34-ish hot. -2.7 camber up front. Turned on reasonably quick on out lap. I rotate each day (front to back, back to front cross). Would recommend 10/10.
Love the look of the beefier tires, went with Falken Wildpeak AT4. No lift or level and no rubbing
Had some true dedicated winters (Yoko Iceguards). Ice , snow, it would just go. Gave me piece of mind.
For my current car, I got the Falken Wildpeak A/T Trail tires. They have the 3 mountain peak emblem so they're rated for snow. Have had them for close to 2 weeks and so far, so good.
I had some Yokohama Geolandar at/4s on my xterra and tundra and I love(d) them. They still give the look while keeping the noise down in my expirience .
Love my Yokohama geolandar x-at’s! Great grip AT tires without adding much road noise
I got slightly larger tires (I think 235/65/r17 but could be wrong) but they fit and look nice. Falkan wild peaks, they’re 3 ply and slightly heavier so they’re basically a money sink. Worse fuel economy, more road noise, more expensive to purchase. Buuuuut… Look cooler, better off road / snow performance, less likely to pop from impact.
I have the same make and model and these tires are absolute crud. In the 15 months I’ve had the vehicle it’s gotten holes in these tires FOUR TIMES; most recently last week while in Vermont and they insisted this time it couldn’t be patched and that they had to order the exact tire from a regional warehouse overnight.
I can’t believe that for $33,000, They come with shitty ass Falken tires.
