Tires Falken or DUNLOP

I've been running them on my Crosstrek for the past 2 years, I live in the mountains and they are great in the winter on snow and ice. I kept the stock size but mounted them and aftermarket wheels, I love the somewhat aggressive look they give over the stock geolanders. I don't notice any extra road noise from them and I get around 30-32mpg. I've also put them on my older Ranger.

grip in the rain is fantastic, and very quiet on the road

Love mine! I live in an area with lots of snow and haven’t had any problems with them.

I have them and I love how aggressive they are. Great in mud and snow. Great in snow mud. Great on asphalt.

Love them. Put ~85 k miles on my first set and didn’t consider anything else when it was time to replace them. I live in Colorado, they are great in the snow and ice, also work great for the forest roads through the mountains.

Just got these on my 2018, handled compacted snow / ice fantastically and seem to be a solid upgrade from the stock tires

Amazing tires. I off road heavily in my wilderness and these have incredible grip off road, as well as being relatively quiet on pavement too.

My experience with the plain Q5 is that that are super sensitive to pressure, 30 cold rear was tearing, 31 was minimal, and 32 was pretty clean with smooth throttle on and pretty rough pavement.

They blow. Not great in rain either.

Don't go Chinese, had them on low profile 19 inches, were shot and damaged in less than 15k kms. I usually stick to the big names, Dunlop best traction, bridgestone best comfort and life, Yokohama a balance of both. Last for a decent time and the overall cost was lower compared to the kms done not to undermine the sense of safety
