Tires Falken or WEST LAKE

My Falken winter tires are better in the dry.

I used the 615k+ last summer they were great for multi purpose use. I did a few track days (6) and daily drove them all summer. Warm up is almost instant, they do fine in the wet. I'll be purchasing another set when track days pick up again.

I recently switched from LT Toyo at3s to "SL" Falken at4ws. IMO the xterra is not heavy enough for the LT tires, it rides and drives so much better with the lighter sidewalls of the falkens, as well as feeling more responsive from less rotating mass.

I have the LT version in that exact size. They are surprisingly great on bitumen with hardly any road noise which is great for your use case. Currently at 35k and no noticeable wear at all with mostly bitumen use. They seem like new.

I was in the same boat as the OP, and went with RT660s.

660 is good bang for the buck. Not as fast as the top tier tires but two or three times the lifespan.

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

Have them on a RAV4 TRD and they are nearly the same as the Falken that were stock, both are not really a truck winter tire in my opinion.

I had some Westlakes I bought just before the rainy season after going through ten sets of tires last year. These things slid me into a mile marker in the rain with ZERO warning.

They are absolutely trash in the snow and for being relatively worn smooth at this point, they have been noisier than anything in 30 years of driving.
