Hankook. It's all I ran on my Forester and that thing was a tank. I'm now using them on my Acadia.
I just got the PIRELLI SOTTOZERO 3 winters on my car! Heard really good things about these tires.
I got hancook kynergy tires for my second set and they've lasted me for 80k so far. The stock tires were kinda trash but these have been great year round
I was leaning towards the Hankook because of the great ratings. But I’ve also had to replace one on my factory continental tires a few months ago because I got a flat.
I love the Pirelli’s though, especially the Sottozero 2 on my 718. In the cold and dry, it doesn’t feel like you’re even giving that much up over the summer performance tires in summer, which is great.
Just swapped from the OEM 20” Pirelli Scorpions to the Goodyear Wrangler Territories and it’s near perfect now.
The OEM Hankooks (on my 24') go full slip and slide mode if there's a drop of water on the road anywhere within 3 miles.
I can turn the "heavy steering" wheel with two pinched fingers and just my wrist when driving. It's not a big deal.
Diff breather mod.
Check the rain channels on the roof for cracking paint. Dealer should fix that as it's considered a workmanship warranty, else you can apply clear coat to the spots yourself to seal them when it inevitably cracks again.
If a leaf ever gets under the moulding/gasket around the windshield it can and will sound like your front speakers are crackling and dying when driving past 60 MPH and make your blood pressure go up trying to figure out what the hell is making that noise.
Installed the Pirelli Scorpion Zero AS Plus 3 NCS Elect 275/45/20 tires on our CX-9 and the first few hundred miles felt loose/squirrelly but it’s fine now.
I have had experiences with many tires models on CX-5, my shop basically agreed Scorpion has to be one of the worst tires to recommend to customer for all the reasons you mentioned. These tires has worse road feel than even Westlakes
My initial PZeros have a tire bulge at 13k. I think they were 80% down anyhow.
