Tires Falken or SUNNY

I went with fallen 615+ not the fastest but should last a good number of runs

I'm in a similar boat as you I did the 615k's last season. Personally I am overly pleased with these tires they have been everything I've wanted them to be. And I'll probably get another set of them this year.

The 615k+ is a great budget tire. I did my first season on them and got second place in my regions rookie class. Then, I kept them and still use them for less competitive/ higher run count events. I've done 3 schools on them too. I love these tires. They're fun to drive on, take heat well, and just last. They do amazingly well in the rain also.

They are Falken Ziex ZE950 A/S

Not the same tires, but I’m currently running the Falken Azenis FK460 all season in 255/35/18 and I’ve been super impressed with them considering it’s an all season. Steering is still very precise, the tires are quiet on the highway and they’re communicative as grip loads up, and it breaks away progressively.

I have ridge grapplers and I really like them, but if I were only doing what you were planning on I would go back to wildpeak AT3s. Those tires were actually amazing.

Falken Wildpeaks are the best AT tire in the rain by far. I live in the PNW and drive in the rain pretty much constantly.

My RT615K lasted like 8000 miles on a Honda Fit with 50:50 miles.

Stock falken wildpeaks blew out on me going 75mph on a freeway. Only had 15k miles on them scary situation.

The fact that these tires are billed as All Terrain is somewhat of a joke when they're not even capable of driving down a mild forest service road without getting a puncture.
