Tires Falken or Continental

Falken Tires

Bought new tires to swap out the Sasquatch stock and went to our local Discount Tire to have them do the swap. Overall, despite a really crappy Discount Tire experience, I'm glad this ended positively with a fantastic experience at 4 Wheel Parts!

Pros: fantastic experience, positive result
Cons: crappy experience
Vehicle: Ford Bronco

Continental Tires

Personally I went with the Continental Pure Contact LS tires. You do take a hit on efficiency, but it's much better in the rain and snow and wears much better as well. I have 25k miles on mine now and they look like they will last at least another 75k miles.

Pros: better in rain and snow, wears better
Cons: hit on efficiency
Mileage: 40233 km

Rating 5.0

I love my Contact Spike 240's in 38mm. On smooth tarmac you can hear a small ticking noise but nothing obnoxious. Rolling resistance is fine. Grip is fantastic as long as the spikes can find something hard to bite into.

Pros: fantastic grip, fine rolling
Cons: small ticking noise

  • Ride comfort:
Rating 4.0

I run 34 psi on the oem sincerras with the alltrack, no issues, tire wear is normal. At 38 the ride gets too stiff. For city driving it is a good compromise.

Pros: normal tire wear, good compromise
Cons: ride gets too stiff
Vehicle: Volkswagen

You can't go wrong with the Continental Kryptotal Fr/Re combo. I've tried DHF/Aggressor, Assegai/Aggressor, Dissector/Aggressor, DHF/DHR2 and Assegai/DHR2 and the Kryptotals are by far my favorite combo. They offer amazing traction with inexplicably low rolling resistance.

Pros: amazing traction, low resistance

I'm definitely replacing the stock tires with Wildpeaks in the spring. In the snow, the stock tires are pretty good, but ice forms very quickly with Vancouver snow and that's where the stock tires fail for me. Noticeably more slippery on ice than a proper 3PMSF rated tire.

Pros: good in snow
Cons: slippery on ice
Vehicle: Subaru
Mileage: 10000 km

I was considering CC2 vs. Wildpeak A/T Trails. I went with the latter and regret it. I do 100% of my driving on streets and chose the Wildpeaks because of aesthetics. I took a 2-3mpg hit to an already inefficient car.

Pros: aesthetics
Cons: 2-3mpg hit
