Tires Goodyear or KENDA
Goodyear weatherreadys - specifically for the adverse weather conditions when you actually care about the tires you’re using.
I got the Goodyear assurance fuel max tires on my 2017 after the OEM tires wore out. 4 years and 60k miles later and so far and they still have good tread. I live in the Chicago area, no issues, even in snow.
I've had good luck with the Goodyear WeatherReady tires on my Rav4.
I'm a big fan of the GY SC3R for HPDE. The grip is so impressive once you get some heat into them.
I’m running the AT2s on my rig in 265/75-16. Really solid tires for the money. So far I’ve got about 5-7k on them. Drove cross country and they did pretty good on the highway loaded down with gear, and not too noisy either. Decent off-road as well.
Put new tires on the crosstrek (some Goodyear from Costco) and they are better but I think that's to be expected.
Just picked up some dirt cheap 26" tendrils to replace the nobbys on my stumpjumper commuter. Hope they do well with glass riddled roads, but honestly at $10 a pop it's not a big deal if they don't.
I had these, but the 12.5’s on my JL i traded in for the gladiator. They were good for all but ice. My jl’s stock ko2’s were far better in the snow/ice and i actually missed having them. Live in Alaska so half the year slipping around wasn’t ideal lol. Just some info for anyone looking at these tires
Kevlar my ass, I've already had a puncture from a weenie nail, they have 0 grip on dry pavement and even less on wet, they are barely passable on dry offroad but absolute garbage in snow or ice. They are really the "worst of both worlds" when it comes to all-terrain tires. I got 6k miles on them before I gave up, just put on BFG trail/terrain tires and they are better in every way.
Personally I’d go with the Khumos, but that’s mostly because I had a shit experience with Goodyears.
