Tires Goodyear or GT Radial
Walmart have Goodyear at 150 a tire and 18 bucks to fit.
I have the Reliant's on my Fusion and they have been great.
I bought Goodyear tires at Sam’s Club. Exact same price as 11/28/2022. Surprised me.
I just installed the Goodyear Weather Ready 2's that look almost identical to the CC2's. Except the Goodyear has more sipes on the outside of the tire that go all the way through. Installed them on a Volvo XC60.
We've been running the WeatherReady 2's for almost a year on our Santa Fe, in a variety of road conditions, dry, wet, snowy. I've been very satisfied with them.
If you only occasionally go off road or encounter mud and snow, and 85% of your miles are pavement, I'd recommend one of the other two. I have run the Wranglers on my XJ, I currently have the KO2 on my WJ and my Excursion. I'd say the Wrangler handles mud slightly better than the KO2, but the KO2 handles rain, ice, and snow better on the road. Basically, the Wrangler will help you get out of a ditch a little easier, but the KO2 will help you stay out of one to begin with.
Duratracs on my excursion always because I traveled a lot in the snow and ice in Wyoming, beat anything else I tried, until it got muddy or rainy. They wouldn't clean out for shit, didn't seem like enough swiping but that was the older version of them. All my ranch vehicles ran them and I had zero issue, snow, sand, rocks just sucked in mud or rainy asphalt.
I actually didn't hate them on jeeps I've had in the past. Both my tj and xj had them. Iirc they were a 45k tire. Did ok in the ice and snow, but not excellent. Honestly they were pretty ok tires. With reasonable care, they Delt with slush and light snow pretty well when above the bottom 1/3 of the Tread. Ice was so-so, Reasonable enough to stop my xj without abs. They did pretty good off road, good enough to keep up with a stock or lightly modded jeep, and would probably tackle trails fine with careful lines and good technique. They fell flat in the wet. They were a little bit slick in the rain on pavement, and would turn into a grease ball in the mud.... But they weren't a mud tire. I bet they would be A perfectly reasonable choice for anybody living south of Iowa, or out west. Within reason they were just fine in Minnesota as well.
I've had nothing but trouble out of Goodyear since the 90s. Granted, I've only been foolish enough to buy 2 sets since then. Gravel can exacerbate their poor rubber trouble too.
I have the same tires on my work van (Ford Transit), also from 2022 and they look the same. They are also very understeery in wet weather
