If you want a solid, inexpensive replacement that won’t break the bank, the General Altimax RT45 is a great all-season option and runs about $131 each at Discounted Wheel Warehouse, which is a nice step up in safety without spending Michelin money.
I’ve found general altimax arctics to be a good solution when blizzaks are too much money. Plus these are studdable , if you live in a place where that is allowed. I’ve been running them on my cars for the last 20 years with no issues.
Falken Wild Peak AT tires. That’s all I buy for the wife and girls sedan.
I've never felt safer and more in control than in these. They're tough, and thick. Also quite heavy too (will very slightly affect MPG, i lost 1-2mpg switching over to these from the stock tires) but surprisingly quiet. They have performed well in the mountains of socal and Colorado (summer/autumn) and haven't shown an inch of damage through what I put them through. Outside of that, they perform extremely well in rain, and you can feel the traction and control. Wildpeaks are expensive, but from what I've experienced and felt, I think every penny is worth it
They have been fantastic for me for 14 years.
My MPG dropped from 41.2 to 38.7 when I switched to Falken Wildpeak AT3 all terrains this summer. I couldn’t do another winter on crappy tires.
I just put my winters on, last year mine was an absolute animal in the snow with general altimax arctics on it.
I have the Wildpeak AT3. So far I like them. A couple MPG drops but worth in the end, especially now that snow has come. Stock tires were ass
These wore down so quick for me… great at first but the durability is not there.
Look out for shoulder cracks on the Falkens. Tread might look great, but the tread cleats will start to crack on the shoulders. Nothing you can do about it. Plan on replacing them around 25-30k miles.
