Tires BRIDGESTONE or Kumho
I had a set on my Explorer last winter and was seriously impressed. They actually ended up being just about perfect - more compliant than my 21" Pirellis, but far firmer, quieter, and enjoyable than I could have ever hoped for. Performance in the snow was incredible
I had WS80s on my Mazda 6 for 6 years and they still had lots of tread left when I traded the car in. I had WS90s on my ATS and they were excellent too.
Without checking the prices on any of those links, Kumhos give the most performance and life for the dollar price typically
Kumho solus 31s on my car - got a full set a few years ago. No complaints whatsoever - well worth the money imho; very good quality.
My Truck has Kumho Crugen HT51. They are much better then the Goodyear Wranglers they replaced.
Just bought kumho ecsta pa51s for a really good price from Quattro tires based in Quebec. Have dealt with them before on kumhos and have good customer support and shipping times. The pa51s are high performance all seasons with really good tread wear but not a lot of recognition they’re really nice so far.
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.
Costco put on a set this (2021) spring but it is too soon to know much. They ride quiet and straight (we also did an alignment). Note: to keep the Costco warranty, you must go back within a week or so to have them re-torque the nuts.
I got about 6 tracks days from my RE-71R tires last season. They were great for about the first 15 minutes, but fell off after that. They also got shredded pretty quickly.
My experience with Kuhmos is they were prone to sidewall bubbles after pot-holes or curb contact.
