Tires Falken or OEM Audi

Running 2.5” suspension lift on dobinsons 3-way adjustables and just popped on a set of falken Wildpeak AT/4 285s

I have the WildPeaks and would buy them again. Good ride, quite, and have worn well.

I've had the wild peaks for years and love them, ill probably replace them with another set. That being said I do a fair amount of snow driving and trail driving in the summer.

I’m in Maine tried them both, liked the wild peaks so much I put them on my wife’s suv, and my sons crosstrek. They are my all time favorite and incredibly high quality.

Tires are on, I went with LT285/70R18 Falken Wildpeak AT4W in C load range. They are a legit 34x11.5 and are pretty heavy since they are the beefier Duraspec sidewall, coming in a 68 lbs, but still C load range. So tough, but with a smoother ride and potentially more flex than an E rated. I wanted to stick with the factory wheels, because A) they look great B) I don't want a higher scrub radius for clearance and wear/ tear, C) saves money.

Falken Wildpeak AT4.

I use them on the trails all the time, they’re great. Better on snowy pavement than my buddies KO2s as well

Falken Rubitrek. I don't go off road much so they are as aggressive as I need, but with better road manners.

2 years in with these tires on stock 19’ rims. Live in Chicago. Great in snow / rain. Noticeable tire drone still like them. Sounds like a bad wheel bearing at first.

40k is a pretty good run for the OE Falkens. I recently replaced the same OE tires on my Crosstrek at 24k. They had been already performing poorly in the wet for a while.

Those oem tires are some of the worst I've seen, pretty much anything would be an upgrade.
