Tires Falken or Achilles

I have the Wildpeaks and love them cause they are pretty damn great for just about any occasion or scenario. Between Subaru's symmetrical AWD and the Wildpeaks, it Handled it pretty damn well. I was super impressed with how well my car handled it.

I ran the RE71R's last year. I'm running the Falken Rt660's now. Its a very good tire that's on par with the Bridgestone. I'd say check that one out.

I’m guessing he is referring to the falken rt660. I use them on my fiesta st and am actually going to order another set next week. Pretty good tires for the price, great dry performance but wet performance is not great.

I went a different direction and fit bigger tires on stock suspension. Looks like they are about 1" bigger in diameter and a little narrower. It was real tight in there so I wouldn't have gone any bigger than the 215/65/16s I ended up with (Falken Wildpeak AT, late model Audi rims) on factory setup.

The tires are very nice; comfortable and quiet, very good in all the conditions the Northeast brings.

Pulled the trigger on the Falken WILDPEAK A/T 255/55R19 much beefier tires. No way the Ms. can curb rash the rims now.

I'm running the achilles atr sport 2s. These are a cheap tire and won't compare to a michelin or conti but they're pretty good for the price. I have about 30k miles on them, they got me through utah mountain winters, and I've been running -2.5 degrees of camber all around. So for the money they did their job.

I’ve had Falken Pro G5 all-season tires on my Fit for a year now, and for the price, they are very impressive. They grip surprisingly well when taking corners, and they haven’t experienced any dry rot or cracking despite the hot weather here in Texas.

- Quiet when new - Reasonable grip dry/wet - Cheap to buy http://****************.com/smile/emthdown.gif - Lack of serious siping = don't bother in the snow - Gets noisy starting about halfway worn - If you have any autocrossing aspirations... don't.

Falken Ziex 512s ( I don't think they are available anymore) are the most trash tires I've had. Terrible grip, terrible life.
