I also used to have a 2008 Nissan Frontier. I had General Grabber AT-Xs on that truck. Decently comfortable, good load rating (I used that truck for towing), rated for snow, and the tread was good for the light offroading I did. Although being an offroad tire with a somewhat aggressive tread, it was noisy at highway speeds. I didn't really mind, but others might.
Pros: good load rating, comfortable
Cons: noisy at highway speeds
Vehicle:
Nissan
The Generals on my car are worlds better than the Pirellis on it before.
The Pirelli P1s were so loud you couldn't have a conversation on the highway, so lacking in grip that a 150hp car could spin the tires in dry conditions. After I went sideways on some wet concrete, I replaced them with General Exclaim tires - their 'sporty' all seasons, all of $50 each from Walmart. It grips like a race car, is quiet and smooth, and tire life is close.
Pros: grips like a racecar
Cons: Pirelli P1s were loud
General is good. I have Evertrek GTs on my car, they seem to be a pretty good tire.
Pros: pretty good tire
Check out Generals Altimax line of tires, I have them on my shitbox beater and they’ve been serving me well for 20,000 miles
Pros: serving well, good mileage
Mileage: 32186 km

I put General Altimax 365AW on my Volt and I love them. They are like winter level tires you can drive all year. They’re quiet and I didn’t notice an impact on the range.
Pros: quiet, no range impact
Vehicle:
Chevrolet Volt
I just got the G max RS on my Mk 7 from a dealer. Don’t know too much about track performance but they’re grippy if a little loud while on the highway.
Pros: grippy
Cons: a little loud

Cons: flat spot after sitting
Vehicle:
