Tires Falken or Kumho

We switched to kumho after blowing through the OEM Bridgestones. Much better IMHO.

I recently replaced the Nittos on my 2020 Pro with Falken Wildpeak AW3s. Huge difference in noise!

I’m running stock Falken Wildpeak E-loads @40psi, and find them quite, but my reference is 225/45R18 run-flats on a BMW so ¯\\_(ツ)_/¯

We had Kumhos on the first ID4 for 2-3000 miles and they seemed perfectly fine to me.

Have the stock kumhos from vw which to my knowledge are not the ev specific kumhos that are out now. 17k miles and 0 issues, plenty of tread left. Quiet, ride nice, and do well in rain/deep snow. Definitely recommend them.

My 2020 Ascent has 24k on the Odometer, and the original Falken tires look brand new.

I love my Wildpeak AT3s. Had them almost a year and they’re great

I swapped the dunlops for new 265/70r17 Falken Wildpeak AT3W.

Minor rubbing on front bumper splash guard, but I pushed it back and will likely take a heat gun to it later. The dunlops did not rub but it was close.

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.

Falken RT660 suck when temps are below 60F as even in the dry the rears won't get enough heat in them to work properly until around runs 5-6. Kumho V730 do better in cool dry weather than the RT660, but they're not a rain tire (at least not here in the Pacific NW).
