Tires Falken or BRIDGESTONE

Blizzak WS90. Hands down, best winter tire for cars.

Falken Wildpeaks are the best AT tire in the rain by far. I live in the PNW and drive in the rain pretty much constantly.

But recently tried the Bridgestone Blizzak DM 2 very nice ride.

I went with 265/60/18 Wildpeaks on my 22 AWD turbo and really like them a LOT. No rubbing even off road and much better grip all around especially in wet conditions. I even pulled a 1000lb trailer down 50 miles of beach without even THINKING about getting stuck. I even kinda tried to push it a few times in deep sand and the tires just didn’t dig in, they went forward even WITHOUT lowering the air pressure in the tires.

I wore out my first set of AT3s and replaced them with KO2s because the tire store only had 3 wildpeaks in stock, but had four KO2s. Drove it for a couple days and hated them. Ordered four AT4s and a week later had them changed out. Much better tire than the Bridgestones.

I love the WS80s on my SX4 though.

I have Bridgestone Blizzak WS90 (18”) on factory wheels on my 2024 Taos SE and only once, as I was approaching 50 mph, did I get that vibration. I got out, checked my wheels, and noticed some snow buildup between the wheel and the brakes (rear wheels, fronts were fine). I cleaned it out and the problem went away.

Have them on a RAV4 TRD and they are nearly the same as the Falken that were stock, both are not really a truck winter tire in my opinion.

yes they wear terrible..are noisey and get poor mpg...its a heavy stiff tire.I had them and switched to cross climate 2 year round and they were way better in water/snow and dry..they are quiet and same mpg as oem for me.

Lol falken tires were bald within 3000 miles, continentals have almost 12k and still look new.
