Tires Continental or Firestone
Continental cross contact lx25 ????, but also keep your weather conditions in mind.
Continental VikingContact 7s are my recommendation. I get an average of 4m of snow, where I live, every winter, and these tires have never let me down. And they're incredibly refined at highway speeds.
I run 18” on my ‘24. Pirelli Sottozero 3 on Pretoria wheels. We have Continental VikingContact on our ‘24 Alltrack. Both great set of winter wheels for Canadian winters.
I had 225/40 R18 on mine last Winter and had no issues with it. Tires were Conti's WinterContact TS870. I was very happy with those tires. We got some pretty sewere snow last year and my R pushed through like nothing.

We got conti vikingcontact 7. They've been fantastic. They were much cheaper than the Michelin's which I hear mixed reviews of.
No change in noise vs stock tires, feel like more lateral grip. We average only 1kwh/100km more on the winters vs all seasons (but it was also much colder when they were on for so I don't think they lost much efficiency).
1600 miles later after a TN road trip and I love these Contis. Quiet, excellent rain performance and good in the curves. We had two emergency stops and these things stuck like glue.
I replaced the run flats with Continental Sure Grip right of the rip. World of difference in ride.
I found a wood screw neatly inserted into the sidewall so it couldn't be patched. $400 for a new Continental.
Dang Firestone charges me 170 and can’t even clean the old wheel weight adhesive (from them) off, plus they overinflated each tire by 10psi. Maybe time to go somewhere else, I mean at least they haven’t damaged my rims like I’ve dealt with almost every other time.
