Tires BRIDGESTONE or GENERAL TIRE
Way better than BFG KO2.
I have the 32 inch E rated version on my F150. They have been fantastic so far, 1.5 years in. I live in SW Montana, so we get snow and ice. They work great for an all terrain.
I've had the General Altima tires for a few years. They have done me well
General as05 is pretty good for an all season
General GMax RS. Cheap and grippy, not too noisy and they do well in the rain.
I'm on the second summer for the General Gmax RS that got installed on our 2014 Mustang and honestly for the price i couldn't be happier. They are quiet, grippy and great in the rain.
I was always a Michelin buyer because they were consistently quiet and long lasting offering excellent all around performance. 20,000 mikes ago I replaced the OEM tires on my Mk7 Jetta R-Line with the Turanza Quiettrack and am pleased without any regrets.
I've put well over 50k miles on mine. Currently I'm right around 5/32nds maybe closer to 4. They did great in snow and rain up until this past winter and spring. Outside of thinking I had a bad wheel bearing, I'm thinking I'm starting to hear some more road noise. It's been relatively a great tire. They've worn evenly and didn't seem to effect any fuel economy.
I had a problem where the Generals were 20 dollars a tire more than the Firehawks. I probably gave up some wet traction for higher overall performance in the dry, but it's good to see that the G-Max isn't a bad option, either.
I switched my winter tires for summers back on the Miata and noticed something odd. There are parts of the tread in the center on every tire that just seemed to have fallen off at some point. I bought the tires in 9/2015 and they had a 1012 build date. I was quite upset with Tire Rack that they would send me 3.5 year old tires advertised as new but they said there was nothing they could do. I ran them winter of 2015/2016 and again this current 2016/2017 winter. Last year they didn't have this separation and I have no idea what happened. I don't think it's something small that I ran over since it happened to all 4 tires. They're 175/65/14 General Altimax Arctics by the way.
