Rating 4.0

I have a 2013 sport, live in Michigan and just put Falken Aklimates. An all weather snow stamped tire.  Just had my first snow rip in them today and they hook up nice. A little louder than my previous tires (tiger paws).

Pros: hook up nice
Cons: a little louder
Vehicle: Honda Fit

The truck feels more stuck to the ground. Haven't had any issues one year into having them. Plan on getting another set of these next time.

Pros: feels stuck to ground, no issues

PHANTOM Tires

Some tires are made in China and some possibly(?) better ones are made Vietnam, while made in Korea tires usually aren't bad, but may not last as long as expensive tires. For safety, I wouldn't go too cheap on tires. Many cheap tires have rather poor traction when new and become unsafe with only a few miles of wear on them. The Chinese tires often are made of very hard rubber, which might wear well, but has poor traction. There may be some in between tires made in the Philippines, but I'd avoid them. Kumho is a Korean tire company with majority Chinese ownership by a Chinese tire company. They make Phantom tires, likely in China, but even in Korea, they would be the low end. Hankook tires are "better" Korean tires. Not the best, but seem safer. I'd check tire reviews on the Internet.

Pros: may wear well (hard rubber)
Cons: poor traction, not safe, avoid cheap
