The only *truly* green tire I know of is the Goodyear Electric Drive 2, which is built to complement electric cars and is made of renewable organic materials -- yet has excellent handling, noise, rolling resistance, tread life etc. characteristics.
I've used the General Gmax As05 and now the new AS07 for the past bunch of years. Never had any problems driving in the snow and ice of PA or any cold weather at all. Cheaper than Pirelli and Michelins, very solid overall.
General Grabber ATXs. On my second set in your same size. Love em.
Ich fahre schon seit Jahrzehnten mit Goodyear Vector All Seasons und damit in der ganzen Zeit nur ein einziges Mal ein Problem, als ich in einer Schneewehe feststeckte und der Reifen nicht greifen konnte. Ein echter Winterreifen hätte das höchstwahrscheinlich funktioniert. Aber solche Schneewehen gibt es ja schon lange nicht mehr. Mehrverbrauch oder schwammiges Fahrgefühl etc konnte ich nie feststellen. Ich würde mal behaupten, wenn man normal fährt, also so einer ist, der ständig an die Grenzen geht, merkt man keinen Unterschied.
Mine was the same way with those tires. I have the Goodyear ElectricDrive 2’s now and it helped a bunch. Quieter, smoother ride, grippier, slippage off the line is no longer an issue, and any loss of efficiency is negligible.
Fahre auf meinem Golf 7 seit einem Jahr Goodyear Vector 4-seasons Gen3 und muss sagen, sowohl im Winter bei Schnee, wie auch im Sommer bei heißen Temperaturen und Regen fahren die sich einwandfrei.
Ich habe die GoodYear 4Season drauf. Super Reifen und echt stark im Schnee. Minimale Abzüge auf Nässe (im Vergleich zu den vorherigen Pirelli Sommerreifen).
I like them everywhere except wet roads. I've never been disappointed with their performance off-road and they do really well in snow, better than in rain actually. I can't hear the tire noise over the wind and rattling. Granted, they're the only ATs I've had on my Jeep since it was lifted so I can't compare them to other things. They are not the best option for a daily driver F150 though. They get loud and cup quickly and rain performance is more important with a heavier vehicle, especially when towing a camper.
I have two sets of these on a pair of 2013,2015 Ford Fusions. 225-50-17.
One tire got a sidewall bubble at a couple months old. Walmart refused to help because I didn't have them install the tires but I suspect they would have come up with other reasons like road hazard to avoid a warranty claim. I was able to talk to Goodyear and have one of their company stores inspect. The cause was a crack at the inner liner splice and air migration into the carcass. They refunded me my purchase price.
A tire on my other car had the same problem in almost the exact same spot also less than a year old. Same result.
Tires are currently 2-3 years old and they have weathering and sidewall cracking. (Parked outside in Michigan). Multiple tires are developing something that looks like a heat ring to varying degrees.
I bought a 2024 Ridgeline new in June 2024, and I just noticed dry rotting between the treads on all four OEM General Grabber A/T tires (date code 1424). This happened right before a long trip, and the truck has about 16k miles on it.
