I've also used General Altimax Arctic with studs, they were really good all-round winter tires but they were annoyingly loud on the highway and they were more comfortable on snow and ice than dry pavement.
I replaced them with General Altimax, dealer reccomended them. I have about 10k on them and like them. Took them on some mild-moderate off-roading out in the Mojave the other day and they did amazingly well for road tires.
235/35/19 Dunlop sp winter Max or whatever they are called. Absolutely love them.
I have about 5000 miles on General AS-05's, 235/45/18 mounted on Prismas. Love these tires.
I've had General (altimax, loved those)
• Front wheels has stock dunlops and rear wheels has all season but forgot the name. Gonna get new sets before next winter starts.
I have Dunlop Direzza ZII Star Specs, there's a Dunlop Direzza ZIII now. I like them because although they're not quiteee as grippy as the RE71r, I've heard the RE71rs lose their grip after just a few heat cycles. These Dunlops are supposed to hold up better to heat cycling.
I have them on my Crosstrek. Love them, but I'm hindsight I wouldn't went with ko2s because of handling in heavy snow
Dunlop are utter garbage (loud terrible tread life)
In 2010, our shop purchased a brand new Ranger 2.3 and I fitted brand new studded General Altimax Arctic, which were broken in before the first snowstorm. When we had our first snowstorm (heavy, wet snow), I took it out for some errands to see how it would do; it was absolute trash. Driving a straight line was impossible.
