Tires Falken or Firestone
Firestone winterforce 2 tires are great with snow, and drive somewhat close to a regular tire in the cold too.
I run falken tyres have done now for about 5 years! Mainly just because I liked the look of the tread patterns ???? no issues so far though!
Falken Wildpeaks A/T3W. They are great in rain, mud, snow, and are not loud on the highway. A bit pricey though, about $220 per tire.
These Falkens were great in the snow and the very little dirt road driving I’ve done.
I have the Falken Sincera SN250 A/S and looking on Tire Rack, they seem to be a direct upgrade to your Laufenns for about $10 more each. Might be worth a try. I've found them to be quiet and absorbing of bumps and road weirdness. Also lightweight feeling.
I changed my tires to the non-OEM Wildpeak AT3W in size 285/75R18. Effectively 34" tall. No modifications/lift, only slight rub. Fuel economy is essentially unchanged with 75k kms in the larger tires. I didn't notice any significant difference in ride or noise. But I was much more pleased with the look of the tire filling out the wheel wells much better.
I went Falken Wildpeak AT4W P285/70R17 SL which is almost stock at 32.8" on my scs 17x8.5 +20 wheels and am totally satisfied. Almost stock weight and size but with a "truck" look.
I have dailyed falken 660's, and re71r's (the old version) and would just go through a set a year. When they are done you can tell a difference when it rains and will slip very easily at stoplight.
Terrible on my Silverado. Ride like I'm driving on rims
I have these on my car. I like how it performs in dry and slightly wet or snowy conditions. When it comes to water puddles or heavy rain, this thing hydroplane like crazy.
