Tires Hankook or Falken
Falken wild peaks have been pretty great for me. Just got another set after many miles of about that same on/off-road split. Low road noise and excellent grip in snow compared to others in the category.
I'm riding the falken wildpeaks. Drove a week, and the tires helped me one night that I drove while it was raining, and a deer (probably a buck honestly) hit the back of my truck while running across the road. I should've lost grip, but those tires held. I kept them and didn't look back. They do take down MPG and have some road noise. They are on the heavy side, but honestly? I love them. Someone also noted bumpiness, but my truck is a bit more heavy with bit metal bumpers, front and rear
Falken wildpeak at4s. I have had mine for a while and love them on and off-road.
With regular tire rotation I used the tires that came with the car for 65000 miles. I think the brand was Falken. 2019 Forester. My driving is mostly city driving in New York City, which has rough roads.
My 2019 Crosstrek Limited made it to 90k miles on the original Falken Ziex tires before it got close to the wear indicator. Probably coulda done better if I rotated as often as I was supposed to
I ran 265/70/17 Wildpeaks on my stock 2018 for years and had no major issues with them. They are a bit heavy and my personal experience was they did not balance the best, but maybe that was addressed with the AT4s.
I got 60k out of Falken Wildpeak A/T. Only rotated them once, probably could have gotten 70k if I rotated them more frequently. Mostly highway miles.
I am at 25k in 13 months with 4/32 on my rear and 6/32 on the fronts of my Y Performance (can’t rotate due to staggered wheels). I have the Hankook Ion Evo AS suv tires. Those only start at 8.5/32 new from Tesla vs 10/32 for the replacement version. Not bad, if I was able to rotate I would have averaged 3.5/32 of wear over 25k miles. They still have pretty good traction, was able to fully launch in the recent nor’easter storm with slippage only on painted lines (testing to see how traction is in full rain, pretty impressive). But, there are now turns or on/off ramps that the rear wants to step out when applying a little more power than I should, was able to practically drift it around a ramp during the same storm.
First set dry rot within 2yr and the other had irreparable sidewall chunk damage within 5k miles. Terrible quality on that model.
2025 forester with 3200 miles on the falken tires. I have already had 2 instances of road damage. First a sheet metal screw in the tread and now a puncture and tear on the inner sidewall due to a piece of gravel.
