Tires Cooper or Nokia
Nokian , which is a company from Finland, makes excellent "all weather" tires if you live in areas that get snow. Basically a tire that is good in the snow like a snow tire but is made to be left on all year. Yokohama is a Japanese company that makes excellent tires at a low to mid price point. My wife's van needed tires badly and our budget was tight at the time, so I ordered some $77 each "Crossmax" tires from Walmart and I've been pleasantly surprised. They've been on the van 2 years and no complaints.
We have been running some amazing Cooper tires on our Acura. I think they have more than 75k on them and we are not changing them yet. They are top notch tires.
I have been using Nokians for many years. They offer excellent traction in snow and are long—Lasting.
For an SUV/CUV I generally recommend Cooper Discoverer Enduramax which maybe a good choice here as it has an extra belt layer and is a bit tougher than many regular all-weather tires
I got Coopers on both our pickup and VW Jetta in the past year. They were on sale. Seem good...
I’ve been pleased with Cooper tires over the years. Both vehicles I have right now have Coopers on them.
I have a set of winter wheels/tires. I can swap them myself in 20 minutes for free.\n\nNokian Hakkapeliitta R5 SUV 225/55R18XL 102R BSW ($183.80/each)
If you want something that lasts longer than Blizzaks but still handles snow incredibly well, the Nokian Hakkapeliitta R5 is the other top pick. Both completely change your confidence on hills and side streets.
my Cooper Strongholds do pretty well in ice, haven't had much experience with them in snow though.
I just installed these on my sequoia less than a week ago and the balance feels off already . They have what feels like flat spots with pretty good shaking for the first 5-10 minutes after cold start driving . Once tires are warmed up it almost goes away .
