I think the 660's are the 'smart choice' being $200 cheaper and would probably last longer than the Yoks, specifically because of only 1.3\* camber and outside shoulder wear. I've also heard they don't heat cycle out like the RE's, which is a huge bonus IMO.

Pros: cheaper, last longer
Cons: maybe a hair slower
Vehicle: Subaru BRZ

I went with Falken wildpeaks for my last 2 sets and have had great results (sold the first set with 45K miles with 10/32 tread left) and I still love my 2nd set.

Pros: great results, love them
Mileage: 72420 km

These tires should be perfect. They provide a VERY surprising amount of grip on dry and wet roads for all season tires. I even run these tires throughout the east coast winter and they handle very well in snow and storms for all season tires.

Only cons I noticed with these tires is that they are bit more noisy and I noticed the slightest drop in mpg after putting these tires on. Tread life is bit lower than average since they are ultra high performance all season tires. I've put about 15,000 miles on them, I can probably get about another 15,000 out of them.

Pros: very surprising amount of grip
Cons: bit more noisy
Mileage: 24140 km

FYI. The K02's are great. They are however sensitive to tire pressures. I always recommend you chalk test these particular models! I am running 38psi up front and 35 in the rear. They can get very noisy if underinflated. I used them as all seasons for the year and they did extremely well in most conditions with the exception of hard packed slushy roads - just not enough grip!

Pros: great all season
Cons: noisy if underinflated
Vehicle: Nissan

I have a 2020 Cross Sport building into a suburban overland mall crawler. There's a minimal amount of model-specific aftermarket support. VWoA has parts available as part of their Basecamp product line (flares, valences, wheels, tires). A lot of the other stuff is just adaptable accessory add-ons. The biggest tire you can fit without lifting (and maybe even with) is a 265-70-17 (Falken Wildpeak AT3W shown), but you will need the SmithVW BFT blocks to pull in the fender liners. Mine still rubs on occasion but something about dubbing and rubbing. Wheels are fifteen52 Traverse MX 17x8 ET20 in Frosted Graphite.

Pros: adaptable accessory add-ons
Cons: still rubs on occasion
Vehicle: Volkswagen

The KO2’s are what I’m running now. It’s a pretty legendary tire and has been around for decades now. They have good thread life, look aggressive, decently quiet on the road and do well in most off road situations except for thick mud since they aren’t, well, a mud tire.

Pros: good thread life, aggressive look
Cons: not best in rain

We found them nice for around 5,000mi of spirited driving. They gave good reliable feedback in corners but didn't perform well in wet. I had separation on rear tread twice.

Pros: good reliable feedback
Cons: separation on rear tread
Mileage: 8046 km

I've had terrible luck with Falkens. Been quite a few years now, but after multiple pairs I concluded they suck when it's wet and have terrible wear.

Cons: suck when wet, terrible wear
