Initial Impressions

been on since new handled very well all conditions, got a bit loose in the wet towards the end. Stopped well all conditions. Would look for a quieter tyre next time as a trip to visit family is a 4hr journey.

Mid-Life

The tires were OEM on my Subaru Forester. They were great overall. I see them like the Jack off al trades. It is not for sporting driving, but they hold up well in every situation I never used them on Snow or Ice, but city, dirt, mud and highway they did pretty good. I change them because here in Mexico Falken is not a common brand

  1. Initial Impressions73% 25,000 miles
    This tires came OEM in my Subaru Forester, the tires are great, good grip in dry and wet, not noisy, and good feedback.
    They are not made for performance but for confort and peace of mind.
    My forester has 25 000 miles and still has about 35-40% of the tread.
    Wont buy them again cuz they are hard to find and expensive.

I don't know why Subaru put this on their Canada bound Crosstreks. There are much better tires available at this price point. Especially considering how pour they are in the snow. I would not recommend them anywhere where it falls below 0 C. They are not at all good in the snow and slush, I have used all season tires that performed much better than these. Even after 15 000 km I am noticing that these tires are wearing fast.

These where the OEM types on my forester. Not bad overall, one 13k miles so far. I don’t expect them to last my dealer says about 20k… will see. Also, haven’t used them in snow yet but I don’t have a high expectation. If they wear as expected, I will have a new set by the time we have snow here in Idaho.

Original equipment on 2021 Subaru Ascent driven almost exclusively on interstates & suburban roads. No extreme off-roading or bad weather driving. Nearly bald at less than 36k notwithstanding all manufactured recommended mileage checks on the vehicle. Will not be buying again.

OE Tire for 2020 Mazda 6 Grand Touring, the turbo engine's output easily overwhelms these tires in the wet, hydroplaning resistance is bordering on dangerous; dry performance is good, but I can't trust the tires.

Didn’t even last 35k! Awful. Really sad because the tires performed until they were bald at 35k.
