Tires Hankook or DUNLOP
I have hankook Ventus S1 evo3s and they’re great
I’ve had Hankook DynaPro HT on my 06 4Runner for 8 years. No issues, only 40K. Plenty of tread. But time to replace soon.
Some more budget friendly brands that make good tires are Hankook.
Yes, it is worth it to spend more money. They will last longer, be more comfortable, have more grip, and make less noise.
My favs: Hankook kinergy PT last forever. Michelin crossclimate 2 are great in weather. Uniroyal tiger paw are a decent bargain.
Just installed on EQE SUV. OEMs were Cooper Crossrange Discoverer…they were run flats. I thought the ride quality would improve…it really didn’t, they are rather stiff too, as are all EV tires now. That said, they are growing on me. The ride is more controlled, the sounds emanating from the tires are more hushed over bumps, but you’ll feel them. The highway noise is mostly hushed, though slightly louder over coarse surfaces. I think overall this is a good tire. Hankook did their homework on this one. They do handle very well, and…this is a good looking tire as tires go.
I now run the Dunlop D604, and it’s perfect for me. I run gravel roads and farm trails that are mostly dirt and mud. Granted- they are an all-terrain tire, and will not do as well as the knobbies in deep mud, but they are more than efficient for gravel and hard pack/well traveled dirt roads, even if they’re wet and slick.
Chinese tires now are pretty decent and are a bargain. The only serious issues I've faced surprisingly were from branded ones - I've had bubbles on Yokohama and Dunlop.
Yes and they sucked. I was lucky to have a very mild winter but I remember one day when it was probably around 25 with a fresh dusting of snow and they were ice skates.
I was naive and thought I'd be able to get away with the stock Dunlop tires until my breaks locked up on a snowy road approaching a red light at 5mph. Get some all weather tires asap!
