Tires Hankook or Falken

Hankook Tires

Yes, I had the Hankook New Englander 205/55R16H for about 4 years on my Mazda 5, and they had just over 60k miles on them. I liked them enough to buy the same thing again. I'm in Massachusetts and they feel great in all kinds of New England weather. I do a lot of driving to work including highway and city. They are grippy in rain, snow, sleet and every combination even at highway speeds. I did get a bulge in the sidewall and kept driving them the last 5-10k or so, even though I knew better. (Don't do this even though it never popped on me.) There was still a little wear left on them, but you have to replace a tire with a bulged sidewall, so I got all 4.

Pros: grippy in all weather
Cons: a little loud, expensive
Vehicle: Mazda 5
Mileage: 96560 km

Rating 5.0

I work in a limestone rock quarry and I have Falken Wildpeak AT4 on my truck and they have been excellent. I am about to buy some for my personal 3500 AT4 because the wrangler that are on it are good ties I'm sure, but they give a very stiff ride quality.  If they can stand up to my work environment they will stand up to anything I would need in my personal vehicle.

Pros: excellent, stand up environment
Cons: wrangler stiff ride quality

I love my Hankook Ions, my MYP had the Pirelli Pzeros as my original set.

One thing that hasn’t been mentioned is the road noise and how much quieter the drive is.

Pros: quieter drive

I’ve had both and the biggest difference I saw was the range hit. I was the sole driver so no difference in driving style - MPS AS4’s were 10% worse. Loved them but would go with the Hankooks were I to do it again.

Pros: would go again
Cons: none

The Hankooks are slightly softer absorbing a smidge more of the road. Noise difference between the 2 isn't noticeable at all. The Hankooks are slightly more efficient, lifetime on the Michelins is 306whm and the Hankooks are 297whm(tracked via TeslaMate).

Pros: slightly more efficient
Cons: slightly softer

Cons: avoid cheaper brands

Falken Tires

Cheap Chinesium trash, rated at 40k miles but I would be shocked if you got much more than 20k-25k and the warranty is basically non-existent... And "all-season" tires really are 3-season tires these days, if you deal with any snow you want to look at all-weather tires like Falken Aklimate or General Altimax 365AW.

Cons: cheap, poor warranty
