Tires Firestone or MRF
Try MRF steel braces
It comes as stock in gen 3 250. Solid tyre. Performance and prices are on par with H1s i believe.
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.
The OEM Bridgestone tires were terrible....The Firestones have been great.
I got HP108s which were $400 total with installation they work just as well as my “Firestone firehawks” which was $860let’s just see if the tread last as long. They work excellent in the rain and I drive on country backroads and highway 6 days a week to work 120 miles a day and I drive like a maniac they’ve been holding up well
I have the masseter on my bike and I'm happy with it.
Ran Firestone on my old truck, same model number it came with. 65k, on the 1st set, 70k on the 2nd and had 65k on the 3rd set when I sold the truck.
Mostly highway driving, a lot of country roads. Tire pressure and regular rotation is what got me there.
Looks fine other than it’s wet and has other people’s rubber on it. You’re gonna find out that the Indy 500 is not a track tire. So when you push really really hard, it’s gonna get really greasy and loose very quickly.
Just got these on my wife's cx5 and yeah they didn't feel much better than the blizzaks we just removed. Then she texted over the weekend to say they're the loudest tires she's ever had and the road noise is terrible.
Not MRF. We have a six hour proddie car race at Bathurst sponsored by them and I never met anyone who drove on them say anything good about MRF
