Tires Hankook or DUNLOP
The 31" Hankook Rw11's have been fantastic in the snow.
When the insurance finally ran out and it was time to change tires, I went for a different brand, Hankook all seasons and never had any blow out since then. I have 179k miles on the car and has been replacing it with the same brand since then and not once had a blowout . And I've hit major potholes too.
we've been using Dunlop for our vios.
Dude the stock dunlop's can't even handle muddy roads. I live down a really long one and turning out of my driveway onto the road always made the front tires spin and the diff lock up weird.
Changed over to as3+'s and it's never been better.
Stock dunlops...terrible in snow.
Winter tires...beast mode!
It's a night and day difference.
The OEM Hankooks were utter garbage, on our 2017 Touring. We replaced them recently, at 30,000 miles, with [these Continentals](https://tiresize.com/tires/Continental/CrossContact-LX25.htm). They ride really nice, so far.
The Dunlop Direzza ZIII is worth looking into. A close friend has half a season of autocross and 4 time trial events (So about 17 twenty to 30 minute long sessions) on his ZIII in a 2013 NC and they still have life left. For autocross they're basically a less grippy Re-71R, but they come into their own on track.
I have the V2 Concept2 all-seasons on my Mazda3 and the Ventus V12 Evo K120 summers on my Mustang. You really get what you pay for. The Concept2's have good ride and noise, but the wet performance is abysmal. The Ventus V12s are a decent performance tire but they greatly lack the dry grip of Pirelli P Zeros or Michelins.
Just replaced the stock Hankook's on our 2016 after only 20,000 miles. Granted mostly around town miles but damn they wore quickly.
Stock Dunlops are garbage. I barely got 17kish out of mine and they were at 3/32".
