Tires Falken or Nokia

I had a choice, AWD or an Eco Boost motor. The AWD ended up being a better buy. I know I’m going to miss the Eco Boost.

I chose the AWD because of boon docking. I put Falken Wildpeak 235/65/16 tires on it.

I cant believe how good the Falken Sincera are and they’re cheap. Only bought Michelin for years. Never liked anything cheap or Continental, Yokohama.

Our best selling light truck tire is by far the Wildpeak AT4W. It's a great all around tire that also looks good and wears very well. They are not the best tire in the snow but they still do pretty well. For an all weather passenger car tire the Falken Aklimate is also very hard to beat. I pulled off a set of 7/32nds tread depth Firestone ft140's off my little daily driver corolla and put a set of those on. The difference in snow traction is unbelievable. I drove home from work tonight on 5" plus of unplowed snow and was at times dragging the belly on my little car. It just chewed right along with no issues. With the firestones I still would have made it home, but a couple of stop signs that I had to stop at and take off going uphill would have required running the stop sign and hoping no-one was coming in order to do so. The Aklimates just bit in and dug through everything.

Nokian , which is a company from Finland, makes excellent "all weather" tires if you live in areas that get snow. Basically a tire that is good in the snow like a snow tire but is made to be left on all year. Yokohama is a Japanese company that makes excellent tires at a low to mid price point. My wife's van needed tires badly and our budget was tight at the time, so I ordered some $77 each "Crossmax" tires from Walmart and I've been pleasantly surprised. They've been on the van 2 years and no complaints.

I have been using Nokians for many years. They offer excellent traction in snow and are long—Lasting.

I've had repetitive Goodluck both in lifespan and performance with Falken tires, and had a good customer service and support experience at Town Fair tire.

I have a set of winter wheels/tires. I can swap them myself in 20 minutes for free.\n\nNokian Hakkapeliitta R5 SUV 225/55R18XL 102R BSW ($183.80/each)

These wore down so quick for me… great at first but the durability is not there.

Nokia ones were like driving a chainsaw on a kettle.

I don’t know about Falken AT/4, but the AT3’s were the worst tire I’ve ever owned.

Bad enough that I’d never consider a Falken product again. Punctured easy, (three flats in 30,000 miles, first one within 4,000 miles). Rock grabbers and rock throwers. Terrible in deep snow.
