Tires Falken or Vredestein

Falken Tires

I just switched to wildpeaks too and they are great in the snow and rain so far. The stock tires on the SR5 were a liability and would always slip whenever the weather took a turn.

Pros: great in snow and rain
Cons: stock tires were liability

Falken Wildpeak AT3W. Live in the Seattle area and they’re great in the rain, but I spend a lot of the winter at a second home in the North Cascades and they are killer for the ice and snow. Incredibly quiet, too!

Pros: great in rain, killer for ice
Cons: none

Falken Winterpeaks. I find they’re just as good as Blizzaks, but cheaper.

Pros: just as good
Cons: but cheaper

Around Thanksgiving last year, I had two Michelin MXV4 Eco+ OEM stock tires that were worn and need of replacing. I followed suggestions of colleagues and Consumer Reports and bought two Falken Ziex ZE-512, and installed them on the front of my 1998.5 Turbo Passat Wagon. Although I kept the same size (195/65/R15) I was impressed immediately: much better handling, steering response, road feel, as well as seriously improved wet and dry grip. Extremely stable at 90mph+ speeds, and good cornering. After about 1000 miles however, I thought I had front-end or transmission problems, as there was this terrible WHOO=WHOO sound coming from the front. I took it to a shop and they said no trouble, just tire noise. Noise worsened, so took to VW dealer in Maine while on the road; they said that car was aligned perfectly per spec, but Falken tires were \"cupped\", and worn on the inside.

Pros: better handling, improved grip
Cons: excessive tire noise, cupped
Mileage: 1609 km
