Tires Falken or Firestone

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

Mine came with the Firestone Destination LE2 and I was going to take them off immediately but they ride nice and are quiet, 20k on them now and they have 7/32” left. They came with 11/32” so if they keep wearing at the same rate they’ll be at 3/32” at 40k and it’ll be time to replace them. They’ve got a 60k treadwear warranty but I live in AZ and the heat is rough on tires.

Pros: ride nice, quiet
Cons: heat is rough
Mileage: 20000 km

Firestone Tires

They’re $30 cheaper per tire than Firestone Fuel fighter. I’ve only read one review and that was a Tesla owner, he seemed happy with them.

Pros: cheaper than Firestone

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

Falken wildpeak a/t trail also have the 3 peak mountain snowflake rating. I bought them halfway through the winter season last year and I was so happy with the difference they made in the snow. I drove in all kinds of gnarly conditions and didn't see my traction light come on at all after I put them on.

Pros: happy with the difference
Cons: lost 1 MPG

I live in the snow belt in Canada and made it home during the storm of the decade without issue. They’re not a dedicated snow tire by any means; but I’ve been pleased with their performance overall.

Pros: pleased with performance

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

Just took my Wildpeaks off and good riddance. Best snow capable tire out there but their tread life is an absolute joke. Running the BFG trail terrains now.

Pros: best snow capable
Cons: poor tread life
