Tires Falken or OEM Subaru

I went from Falkens to Toyos in 315/70r17 and the Falkens were 2” larger in diameter.

I have Akklimates on my Hyundai Kona. They rate pretty good in everything and have held up well in snow and wet conditions, but I specifically bought them because I don't drive that car much and they are more of a value 3PMSF tire.

Well I have a 24 Limited with the 20s and live 2 miles up a dirt road. The tires are fine to me. I have an outback and tundra with 18s and don't notice much difference.

Falken Ziex 960s are what I ran in big bear for years. Rain snow shine. If I needed cables I should've driven a different car. It was a hoon in the snow lol.

Did a short test drive today. No rubbing or other issues with normal/slightly spicy driving. Went lock to lock in a parking lot, no issues.

My Chrysler 300S 5.7 does shockingly well in medium snow. Blizzard conditions are not acceptable for that car, so give me a Subaru Legacy GT Limited Spec B with Blizzaks

I have a 25 yo Subaru Impreza RS that is completely unaffected by snow. That is as long as I put proper snow tires on in the winter, I forgot to switch one winter before a storm and my summer tires were pointless to say the least.

Those Falkens are dearly loved by this community. I had a set and just didn\u2019t like them. They were noisy. They had a tendency to flat spot if the truck sat for a day or two, that would take several miles to warm up and sort itself out. They were really awesome in the snow and what little off roading I did.

KO3\u2019s suck these days. Go with the Falken Wildpeak AT4\u2019s or the Toyo Open Country AT3 is better in the snow from what I\u2019ve experienced.

I got the falkens from discount tire. They were a good price but I don't think I would get them again. All else being equal they don't track as well as the Yokohama I had.
