Tires Goodyear or GENERAL TIRE
Most will do all-season tires such as the Michelin Crossclimate 2 or Goodyear Assurange WeatherReady 2
Just got the Goodyear electric drive 2 tires that have a UTQG rating of 700 AA so I’m hoping they last a while
For a Volt on hilly snowy roads, the best “cheap but actually works” winter tire I’ve used is the General Altimax Arctic 12. It’s one of the few budget winter tires that still digs in on steep climbs and icy starts, and it wears slower than most entry-level options.
Took advice and bought 20" AS wheels and Goodyear Wrangler tires at the Richmond SC, and they realigned. Massive improvement.
I had General Grabbers AT3 and they were great.
I've only ever tried 1 - General Altimax Artic. I drove on them through the Rockies for 4 ski seasons, no studs. Can't imagine needing anything more. My Subaru felt unstoppable... but also completely stoppable! I could turn and brake just fine. Felt like I was on pavement. Almost no fun because I couldn't even get the car to drift!
I second the suggestion of General Grabbers, I replaced mine after 12 years with life still in them.
Have the gy exhilarates, been good, but now discontinued, only had to replace 1 because of sidewall bubble.
My v6 Camaro currently has some tired Eagle Touring tires. These tires are super under-steer crazy.
I can say without a doubt that I will never spend money on another Goodyear tire. I've seen sidewalls bubble within minutes of installation, go flat from a pine cone, and dry rot in months.
