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.

Pros: tough, smoother ride, more flex
Cons: pretty heavy
Vehicle: Ford

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

Pros: great on trails
Cons: better on pavement

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

Pros: better road manners

I got falken tires. The OEM Dunlop tires that came with the 2019 was so bad I would step the break the abs would be pumping and I would slide for a fair distance. The falken I get good grip in winter not so good with rain but I can maneuver better in rain even though I slide a bit.

Pros: good grip in winter
Cons: not so good in rain

Just got a set on my winter stock wheels about a week ago now. I love the look. I'm currently running Sumitomo Ice Edge tires in the size 245/25/18. I previously had a set of Blizzarks (245/40/18) and can't really feel any significant difference in performance with the taller sidewall.

Pros: love the look, similar performance
Cons: obvious difference summer setup

I put Falken wild peaks on my 21 when I first bought it, and just replaced them at 71,000 miles. They still had plenty of tread, but they were starting to dry rot. It was my fault for using degreaser to clean my tires. I put the exact same tires back on.

Pros: plenty of tread
Cons: starting to dry rot
Mileage: 114263 km

On a totally non-Mazda related note I put Falken Wildpeak AT Trails on my Jeep just over a year and half ago. All four of them already have weather cracking. And Falken doesn’t have a specific warranty for that, you simply have to claim the warranty under their general six year manufacturing defects and materials and hope they give you some help. They start at 11/32, rated for 65,000 miles and after 20,000 miles they are already down to 6.5/32

Cons: weather cracking, wearing quickly
Vehicle: Jeep
Mileage: 20000 km

I had Falkens as replacement tires on my 626. They lasted a disappointingly short while. Next tire shop said they’re infamous for being soft and wearing quickly.

Cons: wearing quickly, soft
Vehicle: Mazda 626
