Tires Nexen or Falken
Falken Ziex 960s are what I ran in big bear for years. Rain snow shine. If I needed cables I should've driven a different car. It was a hoon in the snow lol.
Did a short test drive today. No rubbing or other issues with normal/slightly spicy driving. Went lock to lock in a parking lot, no issues.
if you can, stick to the Nexens - best price to quality ratio I've used thus far. :) Great Korean company.
Bought AT4s a year ago. I have great traction on wet, dry and snowy roads here in New Hampshire. Would definitely recommend and buy again.
Im from the same area and I got wildpeaks at4s 265/75r16 at 1010tires for $246. Love the wildpeaks so far, only downside is the gas mileage from stock tires went from 12.3l/100kms to 13.8l/100kms.
I'm currently running Falken Azenis on my '07 STi. They were $150/tire and there was an $80 instant rebate for buying a set of 4. So, $130/tire after rebate.
For the Nexen, I had a set of Nexen Roadian AT tires and they worked well for me.
Plus I went thru the falken tires in 10k miles. Didn’t like that they wouldn’t back up the products they installed. Good suv when running right. But didn’t trust it.
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.
- avoid the willys, stock tires are LOUD (falken mt)
