Have the stock kumhos from vw which to my knowledge are not the ev specific kumhos that are out now. 17k miles and 0 issues, plenty of tread left. Quiet, ride nice, and do well in rain/deep snow. Definitely recommend them.
I have an ADV Rear tire on my Fat Boy, and a Cruiser tire on the back.
Both Bridgestone.
They've been great tires.
I have a 2019 SQ5, stock is 255/40 R21 but I found a deal on 245/45 R20 99V LM-32 Bridgestone Blizzaks.
I have the Bridgestone Weather Peaks and I love them. I drive mainly in Oklahoma and Texas and see a large variety of weather and terrain and have never had an issue at all. They are rock solid in the wet and do very well off-road as well. I didn't take a mileage hit like you see with the Falkens either. I average about 2,800 miles a month in my 21 premium and these have performed way beyond my expectations.
It seems the Kumho scores higher in wet conditions, while the dry performance is quite similar to the Toyo.
HS52 is pretty solid, given the recent balance between Kumho and Toyo I would expect it to outperform the Toyo.
I trusted my Blizzack tires in Alaska way more then I trusted studded tires. Very often studs are thrown into tires that are sub standard tires on snow and ice.
I got some cheap $100 tires and even those are better than the stock Bridgestones
With 4000 miles on the car, I thought I would 'Upgrade' with a decent reviewed set to replace the stock continentals... After a 3-hour install I became somewhat horrified as to what I had done...even with the proper size, the car visually and actually sits lower, the fluid steering has stiffened exponentially (even normal mode), and the car feels so much heavier. The Tiguan now struggles (and burns gas /loses economy) to accelerate in regular conditions and the braking feels laggard. It is a night and day difference that makes the OEM Continental ProContacts actually seem like a good tire. Do not purchase these tires unless you want to turn your Tiguan into a constipated low-slung Jeep.
I tried kumhos on my gti and x3. Not happy with them. After some wear they get really loud and feel un balanced
