I think in my case where my Toyota Sprinter is a 5MT 4WD vehicle (with a center locking diff i might add ????), the Vredesteins are my favorite. In the other 3 seasons of the year where there is no snow, they are excellent in the wet, they are relatively quiet and i enjoy how they perform with more "spirited" driving.
Owner reviews for tires
I've driven the General Altimax Arctic and they were indestructible. They handled snow/ice very well in my FWD Honda. Since they're winter tires, I only drove them 1/2 the year for 6 years. At that age, they recommend replacing tires, but they were still performing great and had tons of tread life left, so I just left them on the car for the whole next two years. They handled both winters great and were totally fine in the summer.
The michelin defender 2 is rated for 70 or 80k miles, and is generally very quiet.
Yeah the Avid GT’s were on some Corolla wheels I bought. Good tires, nice and quiet. Low roll resistance as well was getting like 49-51 mpg in the summer before I switched to snow tires.
I have Yokohama Geolandar G015 in 215/70r15 on my 2010 Prius. These were the first set of tires that I had that were quality and I plan to never buy cheaper brands again.
Upgrade them to michellin pilot sports all season worth every penny. More grip for that torque!
I took off my KO2s from my Sorento. They wore well and still had useable tread after 55k miles. But I was tired of the noise and ride on the highway. I put on a set of these Wildpeak tires and am VERY satisfied. They are pretty quiet, ride nice, and are darn good on wet, muddy, or snowy roads.
I’d recommend Cooper Discoverer STT Pro, they handle well as daily driver offroad tires, road noise is not that bad on the highway and their mud and snow performance is very good.
Put 265/40R-20 Goodyear Eagle Sport on my 2021 MYLR and handling seems the same. As a by product I get no more curb rash.
They should be replaced immediately. The nexen tires are crap.
