Tires Toyo or Falken
I've had Falken FK520 on my MK4 Golf R32 as well as on my BRZ currently. Pretty good price for daily and back roads if you're not immediately taking it to the track or autoX
Stock tires lasted about 50-60k miles on all three of my lightnings. I went with the toyos for replacements. My lightning has 10-15k on the toyos now, they're great. Smooth, wearing nicely, quiet, good efficiency, good in snow and rain, etc.
I just bought the Toyo AT3 EVs earlier this week and I love them. Look great, haven’t noticed road noise and can’t wait for winter snow in these tires.
Got the Toyos a couple months ago. I'm averaging 4.0 km/kWh (2.5 mi/kWh), so it seems like they're pretty efficient!
I have the Wildpeaks AT4s in that exact size on my ‘22 SR5. You won’t regret it. Best tires I’ve ever owned.
I’ve found Toyo holds up the best…..with the exception of the Toyo m/t I don’t know what kind of fairy dust they put in those but they are the longest lasting m/t I’ve ever seen on heavy trucks….my dad has a set on his 250 and pulls a camper and 14k pound trailer/tractor and this set is at 60k with about 10-15k left in them
I love my Falken RTs. I'm off road every day and the 10k miles I have on them have been great. Way better the Nitto RGs they replaced.
I have about 15k miles on some Falken Aklimates and they’re not bad. Live in upstate NY and they’ve handled the seasons well so far. No hesitation when getting some more spirited driving in through the Adirondacks.
Only tire I had where the bead popped. I'll never buy them again.
I don't know the full story but a local Golf R owner is dealing with DSG issues with his tuned MK8R right now. Dealer thinks it needs a new mechatronics unit or a completely new DSG.
