Tires Goodyear or NANKANG
When I was driving (passengers at the time) full time & doing a ton of miles (around 1000-1200 miles per week), I would get the Goodyear Viva's from Walmart. They were like $~80 a piece and lasted me well, I'd get around 45k out of them and I believe they were rated for 60k.
I’ve had two flats in my Model Y factory all seasons (Goodyear Eagle F1s with the foam). Local tire shop was able to pull the foam back, patch and put the foam back. $39 each time.
Maybe I’ll catch a lot of flak for this but Goodyear wrangler Trailrunners have treated me well from highway to muddy farm roads.
My caprice currently has Goodyears they’re great.
Nankang CRS hands down. The only good thing I’ve ever heard about Toyos in the past decade is that they come in a lot of sizes.
The Goodyear Endurance are very good tires. I had them on my rig from the factory. After 4 years I swapped them for Michelin LT tires.
Had Westlakes on my Grand Design from the factory, I didn't have a blowout but a number of people on the Facebook group I'm in did.
I replaced them with Goodyear Endurance mid-season last year and the difference in ride quality was night and day. I don't regret it.
I have Nakang NS2 in the front of my Alfa Romeo Brera. The Brera demands a lof of from front tires, they wear pretty well and have pretty decent grip (not great).
The thing is, you may like or not like, they have a soft construction. So you are more on the confortable side, but roll a bit more on corners and give you less steering feedback than a better tire like Michelin PSS.
Personally I’d go with the Khumos, but that’s mostly because I had a shit experience with Goodyears.
Total cluster disaster tonight for Goodyear
