Tires Falken or Shinko

Falken Tires

I’ve had the falken at3’s for the last 4 years. Amazing tires that have treated me very well. Great in all conditions with good throttle control and very good wet weather grip compared to the KO2’s I had before.

Pros: amazing tires, great grip

Falken WinterPeak F-Snow 1. It's one of the cheapest winter tires - about $80/tire in the 195/65R15 size - but test results show it competes well with the Nokian Hakkapeliitta R5, Continental VikingContact 7, and Michelin X-Ice Snow, which are the gold standards in premium winter tires. It looks like the Falken suffers a little with dry handling, so just don't drive your Corolla like a sports car. The Falken is still competitive in the wet, snow, and ice, which is where it really matters.

Pros: competitive in wet, snow, ice
Cons: suffers with dry handling

I have been running 265/75/16's SL with 2 ply standard sidewall for the last 30k miles on a first gen tundra. I run them pretty hard on and off road, including airing down. I haven't had any issues and am hard pressed getting a much heavier tire since these have performed so well

Pros: performed so well, no issues
Cons: not lasting as long
Mileage: 48280 km

I'm on my second set. I got just about 64k miles over three years before they were cracking and down to 3/32. I just don't have the same confidence in those so I went back to the A/T Trails. They definitely grip the road better and are less bouncy.

Pros: grip the road better
Cons: less bouncy
Mileage: 103000 km

I put on Shinko Ravens and they are more confidence inspiring than the Michelin Pilot 3s I was using.

Pros: confidence inspiring

Shinko Tires

Might I suggest some Shinko’s. I got 16k out of the back tire I got for my Goldwing, 12k+ of those were overloaded doing 80-90 across the country and through the Rockies.

Pros: high mileage, impressed
Cons: overloaded
Mileage: 16000 km

I recently bought some Falken Azenis FK460 A/S and am thrilled with them. Sticky but quiet and smooth. Perhaps a bit less crisp that the Pirelli P Zero AS I had previously but just as sticky when they were new and they are quieter and ride better, should last longer. A softer sidewall should also help off road.

Pros: sticky, quiet, smooth
Cons: less crisp than Pirelli
Vehicle: Volkswagen

I've had the Falken Wildpeaks now for about 40,000 miles. I didn't notice any gas mileage change. The only issue with the tires is that as they have worn, the road noise has gotten pretty loud. 2018 Ram 1500 Big Horn.

Pros: no gas mileage change
Cons: road noise got loud
Mileage: 64373 km

Cheap Chinesium trash, rated at 40k miles but I would be shocked if you got much more than 20k-25k and the warranty is basically non-existent... And "all-season" tires really are 3-season tires these days, if you deal with any snow you want to look at all-weather tires like Falken Aklimate or General Altimax 365AW.

Cons: cheap, poor warranty
