I am currently running a set of studdable (but not studded) General Altimax Arctic tires. They are phenomenal in the snow. A tad loud at 80+ on the highway in the dry, but very good overall in the wet/dry.
I am now using General Tire Altimax Arctic and they are nearly as good....not as 'fine' of a ride as the nokkians, but nokkian is high quality rubber and the price reflects that.
I had the General Altimax HP's on my X3 and they were a way better than the Conti's they replaced. Every set of Conti's I've ever had make way too much noise. :thumbup::thumbup: on the General's
My next set of tires is going to be Generals. Had two sets of them on my last car and love them. Toyo Proxe's were too soft, the Bridgestone Potenza RE950 was a fave but too costly. And Goodyeear Assurance can just **** it. My Generals were Altimax HP's and were amazing in wet, dry, snow, handling, noise, tread wear. At least compared to all the others I've had over the year (to many to count). They were the only tires I bought twice because I usually jump around. General G Max AS-03
I went with General G-MAX AS-03 for my GTI. I like them because they are still on the cheaper end of the market but have good consumer reviews and the warranty is better than most of the tires you listed. General has a cheaper touring tire but I wanted to stick to another set of performance rates AS tires like the stock Pirelli set that was replaced.
I've had no issues with all season 17's on mine, but when I put the General Altimax Arctics on the car, it was FANTASTIC.
I had Kenda Kountachs and they served me well, only really got pinch flats ever and that was 100% my fault.
Nothing wrong with Kendas. They get the job done.
Talk to Daelen at MAP. He can set you up with Kenda Tires at a discount. With a KA you should make it through multiple events on one set of Kendas.
Another vote for the Generals. My CRV seems to ride like **** and handle like dog-**** with them on, but I love the abuse.
