I'd highly recommend the Firestone Destination LE3s. They're usually warrantied for 60k miles and a great middle of the road tire.
I'd say the Firestone Destination LE3s are your best bet if they make them in your tire size. They're typically warrantied for 60k miles. They're really decent tires.
Had the LE3s for 4 years on my escalade driving up and down the mountains and road tripping western US. A great tire, I took it through highway, pothole city, rain, snow, ice and even sand.
I currently have Firestone LE3's on my 14 Explorer. They have a little over 26k miles on them. 255/50/20's for $930 mounted/balanced back in 2021. Overall pretty good tires, especially for the money. Smooth, good traction in the dry/wet and pretty good in the snow. They did seem to get louder fairly quickly, but I don't think they've really gotten any worse over the last 15k miles. Wet roads seem to exacerbate the noise. Last time I looked at them (few k miles ago), they were wearing really well. I can't say I'd buy them again yet, but if they get us another 26k miles without getting significantly louder, they (or their successor) would be on the list. In the past I had OE Hankooks (good dry/wet, excellent life, absolutely terrible in the snow) and Michelin Premier LTX (good in all conditions, short life, overpriced for what they were).
Firestone has Suredrive tires that are basically rebranded Kuhmo Solaris TA71s right in your range. Good reviews on Reddit. I just bought a set today. Seem quiet.
Achilles 123S were a great 220 cheater 10 years ago, about as fast as an RS3?
The OEM Bridgestone tires were terrible....The Firestones have been great.
Firestone destination le3 is decent and cheap tire there, a lot of sizes. Is the tire amazing? Fuck no, but has great wet traction, low rolling resistance, and through the roof treadwear.
Firestone sucked for the majority of the season. Not only have their hard/soft offerings missed the mark, but they are now completely willing to show up with indestructible tires which are totally unsuitable for modern competition.
Heads up, the **Firestone Primewell Velera HT** tires are **JUNK**. I paid all most 1K for a set and less then a year later they started to separate. The store replaced one and then about 6 months later a second and third tire repeated the issue. Ride has always been crap
