Was able to get Falkens this year and they are amazing for me. Less initial bite than the nexens but way more grip if you lean into it instead of snapping the wheel.
I’ve had quite a few and overall, my favorite is the Falkin Wildpeak AT3. They’re the most aggressive looking, deeper tread than some, good warranty, reasonable priced, lightweight compared to a K02 and also a light quieter on road than a K02.
Ran falkens on my last 2 trucks, loved them the whole time
Falken tires are amazing! Sumitomo Heavy Industries, yo. Didn't use the Falken all-seasons that long, because I sold the car.
Had BF for a while and switch to Falken 2 years ago. I find falken are quiet and better on snow and ice.
My 2014 Passat SE w/roof came with Conti's 63,000 miles. First replacement set were Pirelli Cinturano P7 all season plus. Great tires, except in wet conditions.
I’m on my 3rd set of Falken AZENIS RT615K+ (I have two sets mount right now, one set has been to the dragon twice now. The other set is brand new on a set of LMs I haven’t run yet) First set I had I racked up about 20k miles in 2019 and 2020. I hit Wookies, alpine vagfair, spring breakdown, Radwood Detroit, EuroSummit, trips all over for daily driving. Rain isn’t a concern at all, standing water, slushy rain the tire is phenomenal as shown this past weekend at the tail of the dragon.
Pirelli P7 here. 13k miles on them so far. Still baffles me that VW would put a grand touring tire on the GTI but honestly somehow it works. They aren't bad, not great. In terms of comfort and road noise I think they are great, but are mediocre when it comes to handling.
Falken Ziex 512s ( I don't think they are available anymore) are the most trash tires I've had. Terrible grip, terrible life.
I have the same tires on our 12. Car currently has just shy of 40k miles, I took the car out to see how it would perform in some snow we had gotten. The tires were rock solid and almost caused me to crash twice. Once I was doing less than 5mph slowly applied brakes on a very slight incline and just slid, not on ice but snow. Second was similar getting into a parking lot. Maybe in just spoiled in my S4 with blizzaks, but I'll be replacing these with something different soon
