Tires Falken or Nokia
I have the Falken’s and have put over 20k miles on them and I love them. The wear is outstanding and I haven’t had any issues with traction on road anywhere in any condition. The few times they’ve been down forest roads they are more than what I’ve needed.
Got some falken wildpeak AT.
I like the Nokian WR G4 for my 16" wheels as it's a proper *all weather* and electric friendly (like most Nokians.) Not sure if they make them in a 205/45r17, but they are good for wet/cold/winter and just ok in the dry/warm.
I would personally recommend that you get a tire like the Nokian Hakkapelita R3 or R5. They are by far the best winter tires I have used.
Nokian WRG4’s are better than both in the snow.
225/55/17 are nokian entyre 2.0 which are "grand touring" all seasons i think they are more for cruising and comfort than sport and grip. Sadly they don't make them anymore (thanks Putin's war) and I'm about down to the 2/32 wear bars, I'll have to source another grand touring all season, i got about 40-50K out of them no complaints other than they got a bit loud in the past 10-15k.
Falken Azenis RT615K+. Especially at the stage 2+ level. They really do suffer on tread life though but performance wise they're great.
Just went to falken wild peaks. Best tire ever
meh.. the falkens can really get you in trouble in rain if you're not carefull. yes they provide alot of grip in the rain, but they'll breakaway (lose grip) with little to no warning unlike the goodyear eagle F1's which were pretty gradual.
Just took my Wildpeaks off and good riddance. Best snow capable tire out there but their tread life is an absolute joke. Running the BFG trail terrains now.
