Last winter I bought then (then brandnew) Goodyear Assurance WeatherReady tires. They are All-seasons, but have the snowflake on the mountain symbol. They did great in the Mid-Atlantic where we don't get more than 2 days of actual snow but a lot of cold rain, occasional sleet and slush. They did come in handy when we visited the in-laws in Erie PA while they got their 100" of snow at Christmas time.
I have 225s (Goodyear Ultra Grip Ice WRT) and one of mine tipped over while changing tires and it got a scuff on it. Would have been worse with 205s.
My trailer had some junk "D" load rated tires that I replaced with "E" load rated Goodyear's and I saw improvement in handling and fuel economy.
I recommend the Goodyear Eagle GT. It was a much better performer than the Continentals that came with the car and they handled well in the rain.
After two years with the car finally some wheels and tires. 18’s on Federal RS-RR 235/40/18. Definitely love the grip
I had GY Duratracs on my 04 Jeep Grand Cherokee. For the most part I really liked them. Not sure I would say that if they didn't see some offroad though because they were pretty noisy at highway speeds. In the snow and ice, they were amazing. Best tires I've ever had in that type of weather. Also did quite well in mud. The sidewalls were too soft for me to feel comfortable in the rocks though.
We have Duratracs on our LR3 and they have performed very well for us. They are just now getting noisier but have a lot of miles on them. Snow traction is really good, we've gone up hilly unplowed driveways with them and they went through it with no problem.
My Goodyears did that after 40k miles/5 years.
Got $150 prorate back towards my new set of Hankooks, which i love
Asymmetric 2's, not the A/S version. I've driven the A/S version in rain and was underwhelmed with those too. At least in heavy rain, I wouldn't want them--that's based on only one experience, but they were at least 8/32's and were not impressive.
I have Eagle F1's on my 986 and am totally underwhelmed.
