Tires Hankook or Goodyear
The Toyo GSI and Hankook I-Pike are both very good performers at better prices. The cheap Chinese tires might be ok for the first season or so, but they fall off very quickly as they wear.
The tires are good, BTW. I had them on my old car and was going in circles around others who apparently cheaped out on their tires. Like, had to help get a 4WD pick-up truck out of a ditch at one point.
I ran some good year winter tires for 8 winters before without issue.
I have had them for 3 winters on a Corolla and found them very good for snow, and decent for ice albeit not quite as good as Blizzaks or Hakkapellitas on ice. They ride quietly and have decent tread wear ratings.
After 22,000 miles, my stock Pirelli’s were down to 2/32” and desperately needed to be replaced. I ordered the Hankooks based on a recommendation from a user here from SimpleTire. They already feel 1000x better than the worn ones they replaced. They also look a little more rugged than the Pirellis and I really like the overall look of them on the Riv.
Goodyear Ultragrip was good on RWD 535d, tuned
I like them everywhere except wet roads. I've never been disappointed with their performance off-road and they do really well in snow, better than in rain actually. I can't hear the tire noise over the wind and rattling. Granted, they're the only ATs I've had on my Jeep since it was lifted so I can't compare them to other things. They are not the best option for a daily driver F150 though. They get loud and cup quickly and rain performance is more important with a heavier vehicle, especially when towing a camper.
These Goodyear dura tracs will not die, 60,000 miles,noisy as hell and no traction when it rains.
These tires are terrible. Puncture prone and are magnetic for screws and nails
Our 2021 Hyundai Kona Limited AWD came from the factory with Goodyear Eagle Touring 235/45R18s. At 28,783 miles we only have 3/32nds of tred left and will be getting new tires very soon - they won't be Goodyear!
