Tires Falken or Firestone

Falken Tires

Your tires are one of the main factors contributing to the wheelspin. If its a big enough issue, get a dedicated summer tire like the Dunlop Star Spec or Falken Azenis 615. I have had both of those tires on high powered FWD cars and they make a big difference.

Pros: big difference, improves wheelspin

Firestone Tires

On my Sportruck (1980 caddy)(winter beater) I had Firestone Snowbiter studded snows all four. 155/85/13 HONEST to GOD! this truck would leave well set-up K-5 4x4 BLAZERS wallowing in it's dust as soon as the snow and Ice hit.

Pros: awesome snow performance

Firestone Winterforce snow tires with studs! Now I have that satisfying clicky clicky back. And the ability to drive through all the snow and ice EVER. Sure, the handling on dry roads is absolutely garbage now, but it's more fun in other ways!

Pros: drive through snow and ice
Cons: garbage handling on dry roads

I really like Falken, far better bang for the buck than BFG, or Pirelli IMHO. Had Ziex on my wrx, and on a few cars since. Great tires.

Pros: great bang for buck
Vehicle: Subaru

Falken makes a pretty decent tire. I don't think they have high performance, but for a daily driver, they're pretty good.

Pros: pretty good daily driver
Cons: no high performance

I had the same tire in 245-45-17 (I think that was it) with a 99 load rating on my former '00 and liked them a lot. Quiet, comfortable, decent handling, and great price at the time.

Pros: quiet, comfortable, decent handling

The Falkens suck I would never put them on my car, but they are WAY better tires than Ling Long... Ling Long, Nexen, Nankang = never ever EVER. I wouldn't trust these tire brands on my bicycle, let alone the machine holding my butt inches above the ground going 90 on the freeway.

Cons: poor quality, unreliable
