I think my Falkens have been great, road noise hasn't been bad at all, haven't really noticed much of hit to mpg, and traction been good
ohhhhh that efficiency is nice, I have a similar driving style (but a lot more miles) on my wildpeak at3/w's and I'm closer to 1.73 around town, and 1.9-2.0 on road trips averaging around 70mph.
Conti DWS is my car go to, although I like the Pirelli Pzero A/S I have now too. For a strict summer tire, we boil off Falken Azenis on the track cars...Conti LX25 for the truck.
Just thought I’d share some initial impressions.
Car Details: 2020 Model 3 RWD
Original Tires: Michelin Primacy
Miles of original tires: 58,300
New Tires: Nexen N’Blue 4S2
Miles on new tires: 100-200
Road Noise
Nexen (N): quiet. I mean nothing at slow speeds and very light at hwy speeds.
Efficiency
N: Still early days, but all miles in the rain and with gusts from the recent hurricane (it’s not nearly hurricane force winds). Mainly highway this far and was around 250-260kwh.
Ride Quality
N: shockingly noticeable job absorbing bumps. Not like a new suspension, but takes the cringe out of small potholes and bumps.
Falken Sincera SN250 A/S so far a good tire good grip dry and wet. Not too pricey only decent tire in a 14 in I could find.
I think the falkens are very reasonable. Great off road tire and solid on road. Not much noise.
From what customers have told me, the wildpeaks have been excellent over their lifetime.
I replaced them at 36k with Falken Wildpeaks. Immediately lost 4 mpg with the Falkens. They’ve lasted 60k though and I am now shopping for new ones.
I've got about 60k km on my OEM Nexen tires. They are definitely on the way out, they slip on wet roads now when accelerating.
the stock OE tires are absolute garbage but they'll work just fine if you live in warmer climate area. I put mine through a single winter in buffalo ny area. it was a bad idea but if you're a good driver, you can manage the LACK of ANY traction.
