Falken Tires? (1 Viewer)

[Pigeaten]

I bought a set of Falkens before pig party to Idaho, could not get BF Goodrich, I was very impressed with them, sold the truck a few months later, so not sure how they did after jumping some rocks up to fire look out, but did the job

JApan owns the company, but tires are made in Japan, China or Brazil . BFG's are made in USA but owned by Michelin a German French company.

Need to look on some of my tires but I know that Dunlops say where they are made. Had to search hard to find one in Riyadh that said "Made in Japan" instead of "Made in China". Big price difference.

I am currently running the RT on my Tundra. I bought them in the spring thinking I was getting the new AT4. I didn't read the Ad very well. I thought the road noise would drive me crazy, but I am pleasantly suprised. A little noisier than the AT they replaced. I tow regularly and these tires are great. Look good too. I know many people that have ran Falken and they all say the same thing. Good tires!

Nice.
How's the wet performance compared to other ATs? Only RTs I had were Radar Renegade RT+ and they were terrible on wet roads, so I'm looking for something safer to drive

As a guy that lives in the rain belt I tend to buy tires that are good in the rain. I have driven these enough to say that they are good in the rain. Highway speeds through some good size puddles and puddled up ruts. No hydro planning.

Drove a thousand miles on em coming home. I’m happy with them and wouldn’t shy away from buying them again.

I have been a BFG fan since the late 70s! 3 flats in that many years can't be beat. Only thing not happy with is they are getting away from Vintage tire sizes. 15s, 16s, ect. ATs are perfect in wet and snow with plenty of sipes in th tread. Mud are awesome 2 .

Thanks a lot!

By the way- can anyone compare Falkens to Cooper ST Maxx?

I just put a set of KO3s on the 470.
