Tires Falken or YOKOHAMA
I just got a set on my '21 Kia K5 GT-Line AWD. They are like night & day vs. the stock Pirelli P-Zero all- season. Much better ride quality, can't even compare wet or snow traction. The only coin that I can see is my mpg has gone down slightly (which may be sure to using remote start almost daily since it's now officially winter in Michigan)
My Falken winter tires are better in the dry.
I used the 615k+ last summer they were great for multi purpose use. I did a few track days (6) and daily drove them all summer. Warm up is almost instant, they do fine in the wet. I'll be purchasing another set when track days pick up again.
My kid put on Yokohama ADVAN Sport V105S on his BRZ and is quite happy saying they’re almost as good at a significant discount from the Michelins.
Yokohama Advan Apex v601. They have more steering feel than Pilot Sports, will last about as long. Good on the dry and the rain.
I recently switched from LT Toyo at3s to "SL" Falken at4ws. IMO the xterra is not heavy enough for the LT tires, it rides and drives so much better with the lighter sidewalls of the falkens, as well as feeling more responsive from less rotating mass.
I have the LT version in that exact size. They are surprisingly great on bitumen with hardly any road noise which is great for your use case. Currently at 35k and no noticeable wear at all with mostly bitumen use. They seem like new.
I was in the same boat as the OP, and went with RT660s.
Falken Wildpeaks on my ‘07 Tundra. Ride and durability seem fine, traction is not very good.
I bought new Yokohama Avid Ascend LX BW 185/65HR15's in May of 2021. My mileage at the time was 209,674. My mileage is now 241,241 and one of my tires is bald and needs replacing. And the others ares are bald but getting low while one is still pretty good.
