Tires Pirelli or Falken
Have had two sets of Falken Ziex tires on my ascent, low road noise, good in snow (New England) and great wear.
The Fallken ate great.
The Falken's are the only thing on that list I would run. I have ran those same falkens on 2 vehicles even. They were good tires in all ways. But not necessarily great in anything, but tread life.
JUST installed the Wild Peaks AT4W last week and went on a 750 mile road trip (mainly highways) right after and noise was very minimal and I didn't see a huge hit on the MPG.
I just got KO2’s on my 21 sport, I had falken wildpeaks and I will say, the Falkens were basically silent compared to the Ko2’s and performed really well in the snow
I had a set of 215 Toyo Open Country AT3s and ran them for 60k miles until getting a set of 235 Falken Wildpeaks. I’m only about 18k miles in to the Falken but so far so great. Much better in snow however, but not flawless, don’t forget your recovery gear lol
The falken wildpeaks all trail tires are great. I have them on my 24 sport right now. They’re much quieter then the KO2’s and weigh significantly less. The decrease in rotating mass would relieve the stress of running heavy tires such as the KO2’s.
I have Falkens now, and am considering the Geolanders because they do slightly better in the rain. I'm not sure which is better in the snow. The Falkens have been fantastic in the snow, as you probably know, but I find traction isn't great on wet roads.
Ive had one set of Pirelli and I hate them so much. So much that I don’t even want to bother trying their tires again.
I have the Pirelli Zero winter tires on my car and they are trash. Constantly slipping and sliding with minimal amounts of snow on the ground. Not even close to being in the same class as the Blizzak's on my other car.
