Falken 28392832 Aklimate 235/45R17XL 97V All-Weather Touring Passenger Tire

The Falken Aklimate 235/45R17XL 97V is Falken's first all-weather touring tire, engineered to deliver confident, year-round performance for drivers who face all four seasons. Rated with the Three Peak Mountain Snowflake (3PMSF) symbol, the Aklimate bridges the gap between a traditional all-season and a dedicated winter tire — providing superior cold-weather and snow traction without sacrificing warm-weather handling or ride comfort.

Key Features:

• Canyon Grooves: Enhance snow traction capability while preserving a smooth, quiet ride on dry and wet pavement
• Circumferential Grooves: Efficiently evacuate water and slush from the contact patch to resist hydroplaning on wet roads
• Wide Shoulder Blocks: Boost cornering grip and braking performance, with special siping details that shorten stopping distances
