Most customers rate Wet Traction highly with scores 7-10, highlighting confident wet braking and reliable grip. While a minority note occasional concerns, the Falken Sincera SN250A A/S delivers strong wet performance expected of Grand Touring All-Season tires.

...Surprisingly quiet and responsive in both wet and dry conditions...
These tires are the original OEM tires that came with the car. Surprisingly quiet and responsive in both wet and dry conditions. Good wear as at 38,000 miles I still have 7/32 of tread left. Only rotated twice during this time. Living in the Charlotte NC area I can't really comment on snow performance.

...Rain, wet conditions I had no issue. No hydroplanning. Faster cornering, they aren't bad...
Bought these for my wife's Lexus IS250 AWD. These tires did average to above average for what I bought them for. Especially, here in Wisconsin's year round weather.
Steering response is heavier than what I just replaced them with: (Continental DWS W06). I took these Falken off with about 50-60% left because well, they were getting really loud on the highway and I was getting really annoyed by that.
Summer driving with these are good. Rain, wet conditions I had no issue. No hydroplanning. Faster cornering, they aren't bad. The Steering is a bit on the heavier side like I said before. Not much of road feedback. Snow (thin, thick, slushy) on these with the AWD system, I had no issues other than stopping. But you can't compare these stopping in winter conditions to snow tires, because I run snow tires on my other car and I know the difference.
In conclusion, I wouldn't buy these tires again due to the loudness on the highway. Rating wise; I give them an average. If pricing is an issue, these tires aren't bad for price. Better than buying some nonsense name brand.

The Falken Sincera SN250A A/S delivers reliable winter traction in snow, with many ratings of 8-10. Ice and deep snow performance shows some variability, but positive scores highlight confident grip in typical all-season conditions.

...I had them on an 6 in. unplowed snow covered very steep dirt road and the car went up like a mountain goat which surprised me...
First let me say my other car is an Audi TT with Michelin Super Sports on it so I am basing my handling marks on such a tire and the Falkens I have are on a VW Alltrack which also has quattro like all wheel traction. When I first bought the car I was looking for all kinds of reasons to not like these tires but they handle very well until you go past 80 then I would not push them but that is not really what they are made for or designed into. The tires are XL (extra load). I have cornered very hard with them and they handle well. I had them on an 6 in. unplowed snow covered very steep dirt road and the car went up like a mountain goat which surprised me. At 8,300 mi. the tire depth is 7.5/32, new started at 11/32 so I think this tire is going to last like 30,000 but it might be more my driving style. For a normal driving person that doesn't drive super fast and corner hard the tire might last longer and it is an inexpensive tire. I won't buy another set but I don't think they were a bad tire (hope that doesn't sound too contradictive). By the way, there are not a lot of choices for this size tire and vehicle.

...The tread is getting too low for driving in winter conditions...
These tires have lasted over 50,000 miles, I'm definitely purchasing another set. The tread is getting too low for driving in winter conditions. I would say they lasted pretty well considering I corner aggressively and drive on rough roads.

Most customers rate dry traction highly with scores of 8-10, praising responsive handling and confident grip. A few lower scores (4-6) note occasional reduced grip in aggressive maneuvers, but overall performance excels for grand touring all-season use.

These are good tires for sporty handling. But, I swear you feel every pebble in the road. They ride very harsh. I have no idea how they do in snow. Very good handling and rain tire performance .

...I never get snow or ice where I live, so can't list such experiences, but it did perform as well as any other tire handling... sharp turns on dry pavement, sudden stops, and harsh accelerations...
These tires came as a set of 2 that were already installed when I purchased the car back in 2019 at 49,000mi. Only recently had them changed out at the tail end of 2020, just under 100,000mi, with Carfax showing a total of 77,000mi between myself and previous owner. Even if I'm to disbelieve the Carfax, lasting 50,000mi for just myself is pretty good; I'd be tempted to go back for the treadwear alone, especially since I like to drive spirited here and there.
As for the tires' other qualities, I can only speak for so much. I never get snow or ice where I live, so can't list such experiences, but it did perform as well as any other tire handling water, sharp turns on dry pavement, sudden stops, and harsh accelerations. I didn't notice excess road noise but mainly because I always have my windows down when possible.
All in all, very glad these tires lasted as long as they did, considering how much I drive. If I weren't going for only summer tires from here on out, I would go for these again, and definitely recommend.

...They're quieter than expected, ride comfort is good, and wet and dry handling was better than I was expecting for 205/55 tire...
These are OEM on my Golf Alltrack. Overall they were pretty surprising. They're quieter than expected, ride comfort is good, and wet and dry handling was better than I was expecting for 205/55 tire. I'll likely replace with a 225/50, which will offer a bit more grip, but will also likely have worse fuel economy.
For everyday driving, these seem like a good choice, although the UTOG rating is pretty low and it seems that treadwear isn't great for a tire that is an all-season.

Ride is comfortable over all but cornering can be a problem due to the soft sidewalls... These tires are not quiet but comfortable on highway.
Ride is comfortable over all but cornering can be a problem due to the soft sidewalls. Hard breaking in wet conditions is ok but not great.These tires are good for the money, an improvement over the sincera 828 driving over moderately rough and wet roads.. I changed from a 185/70 for the 195/70 for a larger footprint. The Aspect increases was 2 inches and this caused more bounce and some sway due to the soft sidewalls. These tires are not quiet but comfortable on highway.

...I like the quietness and comfort...
I've had 2 Jetta's. My current one has these Falken tires, and I think they are better than the Bridgestone Ecopia 422's that came on the other one. I like the quietness and comfort. Traction is good enough, but I have not experienced snow or ice driving. Treadwear is minimal so far, considering the low-ish 320 rating. There are plenty of options for tires in this size, but I would be unhappy choosing a different tire that made the interior louder. You just never know.

Treadwear disappoints with many 0-6 scores. Customers report rapid wear, premature replacement, and dissatisfaction despite some 9s/10s. Excessive wear and early replacement needs are common complaints.
February 28, 2025
Treadwear is very low, purchased my car brand new and tires already almost bald at 25k miles. Even wear across tire, regular rotation, proper tire pressure. Too much for only ~30k miles at best.
