Tires Falken or Shinko

New tires for the touareg pretty happy with how they look. Although the brakes are much stiffer from the additional weight.

As the final installment in the decade-old 615 line, this tire blends a nice mix of dry and wet performance, with solid wear characteristics. A little loud on the street, but it’s right at home delivering lots of track laps or autocross runs.

I have shinko 805/804s, they are pretty identical to the 606s, and I absolutely love them. If you balance them well they ride good at 75mph, and handle dirt fantastic.

I bought a set Falken RT660s for the corrado. Very nice tire on the street.

I switched to the shinko 244 front and have loved the d606 rear combo. It dives into the corners on the road and will give you about 80% confidence on the dirt.

Just bought 4 Falken wild peaks 265/75r16 116T for $188 a piece on Amazon from simple tire. If you want a beefy look and you don't do major off roading these are great.

Was able to get Falkens this year and they are amazing for me. Less initial bite than the nexens but way more grip if you lean into it instead of snapping the wheel.

I’ve had quite a few and overall, my favorite is the Falkin Wildpeak AT3. They’re the most aggressive looking, deeper tread than some, good warranty, reasonable priced, lightweight compared to a K02 and also a light quieter on road than a K02.

Have you considered a 205-40-17 Falken 512? It's a crappy tire, but it stretches well.

Had the Falkens on my 2017 GSWAT and at 22000 miles they are toast.
