Rating 4.0

Original Falkens was not a fan of and car doesn't really see offroad minus some local dirt roads. AS3+ are a great 3 season tire, passable if you live somewhere with light winters but run dedicated snows late Nov-early Apr depending on the year.

Pros: great 3 season tire
Cons: not a fan

I put the Premieres on my wife's Corolla and they are really amazing in the wet. We took it up Sandia Peak in Albuquerque a few weeks ago to catch the sunset, then it started raining on the way down. I tried to get it to understeer on some of the switchbacks just to see how much grip was left and couldn't get it to slide. They are not super sporty/firm and the steering response is a little slow in the H-rated version but overall I have been really happy with them.

Pros: amazing in wet, good grip
Cons: not sporty/firm, slow steering response

I did 215/45/18 xice3 on OE wheel for more sidewall, If I did it again I would do stock size 2254018. I lost a little bit of responsiveness/ punch from the 1/2\" taller overall diameter and also some curb protection from the 1/2\" narrower tire.

Pros: more sidewall
Cons: lost responsiveness/punch

I have the KH16, and they have the worst wet weather traction I have ever encountered. I have them on a Pontiac Grand Prix.

Cons: worst wet weather traction
