Tires Falken or Cooper

Falken here for 40000km all year around here in canada, great in snow, offroad, gravel, bad on ice... But after two winter still alive without any "oh shit" moment. I will buy them again.

I purchased my set of Falken Wildpeaks A/T trails back in 2020 and since then used them on all sorts of terrain. They handled well, in snow, dirt and rain and on road manners were excellent. My only small complaint was the big drop in fuel economy (22 MPG average.). Well, they've been driven about 38k miles now since my Subaru Forester is used for our family road trips and the tires are down to 2/32nd of tread.

I have a set of Wildpeak AT3/W. They are a excellent tough tire with good tread wear and can handle winter weather. I off road them quite regularly and they are on par with BFG K02.

Paid $341 per tire for my Falken’s about 5 months ago through Tire Rack

Damn they look good too. MPG hasn't changed, no more road noise than before, and speedo is still accurate (according to Google maps.)

They performed admirably, especially for the price. To my ears they were quieter than the factory Dunlops, and they definitely lasted longer. I replaced them after around 45,000 miles (~72,000 km since I see you are a northern neighbor) because of a sidewall bubble, but that was courtesy of a massive pothole rather than any sort of defect. There was still tread life remaining.

Im currently running falken wildpeak AT3s there kinda heavy and harder to balance than the Toyo open country at3. I got 70k out of my Toyo’s amazing tire better in sloppy conditions than the falkens for sure.

I did Falken wild peak 275/60r20 (but I have 20” wheels). 33s work well

- 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.

The falkens that my car came with (2018 Alltrack S) were extremely disappointing. The tires were bald at 20k miles.
