I've run General Altimax Arctics for years. Probably gone through 3-4 different sets on various WRX/STI, MQB cars, always happy with them. I did get a used set of wheels with Michelin XI3's and they're pretty okay for my current MK7. Pretty ok in dry weather but I found they didn't do great compared to the Altimax on a prior Mk7 GTI.
I've got Altimax Arctics for both the Focus and BRZ. The Fit uses all-seasons all-season and does OK. I think the X-Ice 2's I had before the Generals had the edge on actual ice but both tires are excellent in the snow.
BFG AT K02 Just put my second set on my F150 about 7K miles ago. I got 56K trouble free miles out of the first set which is great in my book. The key is to balance/rotate at the recommended intervals.
I've had these on my past 3 cars (Audi A3 and two Tiguans) and love them, especially given the price. Not the quietest tire but extremely competent in wet, snow, and ice conditions, with good treadwear.
215/65/16 BFGoodrich K02s. 27” rolling diameter is our maximum number. My wheels are 16x8 et30. NO RUBBING AT ALL!
I had KO2's on my JK Wrangler and they were great. I had the e rated ones, so they were stiffer than the factory Bridgestone DD's but no noisier with the top on or off. I found Duratrac's get noisier as they wear, the BFG's didn't.
New BF Goodrich Comp TA a/s tires, and even on stock suspension it’s really helped. The ride is a bit crunchy but worth it.
I bought BFG KO2's about a year ago and they had white letters on one side, black on the other. FYI, if you get snow, the KO2's are awesome in it.
I have been a fan of the Conti Pro Contacts before, as well as Pilot Sport A/S 3+. A decent budget tire is the General Gmax, however in my experience they get pretty loud as they wear.
BFGs tend to weathercheck, crack, and cup before at about 70% of wear.
