Tires Firestone or KENDA
Firestone winterforce 2 tires are great with snow, and drive somewhat close to a regular tire in the cold too.
I've just got some Firestone all-season tires on mine. Nothing fancy. They did *surprisingly* well in a half-foot of snow.
I drive Firestone Firehawk Sport on my e53 amg, it’s really good tires, is it better then Michelin? No, but for the money it’s pretty good and does job well, never had an oversteer or understeer keeps to road really well.
I replaced the garbage Bridgestone OEMs on my 2020 Jetta S manual with Firestone all weather at 29250 miles.I am totally pleased with them they are quiet and ride and handle nice and good in the rain.
Kenda Klever RTgets my vote. Less people use them but I've got 40000+ miles on mine including some pretty decent off-road trips every year and they have held up extremely well.
A nice budget summer tire, if maybe a bit outdated. They were very well regarded on Tire Rack as a budget option for awhile. Unless you’re trying to run 10/10th on the street, they’ll be good. I did find them to run a bit narrower for the same section width than the Michelins I replaced.
They are good tires.
I am about 2 seconds off pace of what I was on the falkens comparing my self to other drivers that I would be trading blows with. I will say I like the kenda alot for street driving and wet weather traction how ever it seams they are about 2 seconds off the pace of the Bridgestone.
These are the worst tires I've ever used. At 8000 miles they needed to be replaced. All four tires had even wear they're not worth the price that Firestone charges for them.
Do NOT buy Firestone Tigerpaws. Under the blue white wall protection is a 1" "whitewall" that the carbon in the rubber penetrates right thru. They are tobacco brown in just a few days. Garbage product.
