Goodyear wranglers. Good tread and not too loud or rough on the road, and they weren't too expensive when I got them 5 years ago.
Goodyear Assurance MaxLife - 225/55R19 99V Tire from Sams Club. $800 installed ($100 off). In NYS 60 miles north of NYC.
I’ve had my set for a few years and I have no complaints. I’ve had no issues getting around in snow with them.
I just got set of 4 rated for 80k miles (Goodyear) installed, balanced, with roadside assistance etc for $450 all in for cyber monday at walmart
We have most recently been purchasing Goodyear from Walmart. They tend to have good sales in November and December. We have gotten 4 sets from there in the past 2 years (including last month). So many because we have 7 vehicles.
I had a big coupon for Goodyear weatherready 2 tires, so I bought a pair since I got them right about $1000 installed
I drove the Vector gen3 for two winters just because they came almost brand new with my car. I am a very calm and mindful driver and my suv is 150hp (awd) and top speed 170 km/h, so the performance never felt lacking , including druring blizzards and on shiny slippery ice. That's with my driving style and without mountains, mostly flat roads. But I feel that if you constantly push them to the limit, you may get mixed results. Especially on compacted snow with frozen tire tracks, it can be quite unsettling experience. I think the excellent awd made it feel sufficient, but I never felt completely stable and completely safe. All-seasons are usually a bearable compromise and aren't excellent at anything. This Goodyear felt rather solid and just the fact I could drive in 40C and highway speeds, and in -15C in snow is very impressive. BUT at only 3 years old they were already dry rotting and all cracked, to the point one started leaking through the sidewall. Tread wear was also very rapid. The Goodyear had so much noise, including some vibrations and even a loud roar at high(er) speed. I honestly thought it might be my rear diff indicating it wants an oil change. I didn't know it was all just from the tires. Now I only hear some slight wind and nothing else. I guess the all-season compound baked during the summer and lost its qualities, just as the winter compound would.
We moved to a new set of Goodyear Comfortdrive's and immediately dropped 0.4mi/kwh efficiency (which has stayed consistent over the 700 miles that we've put on them). That is to say, our 'new normal' is 3.6mi/kwh.
i've run efficientgrip cargo on the front of a small isuzu lorry (think half ton pickup-sized in yank equivalents) and they were also chipped to hell. 100% urban/highway use. they just do that.
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.
