Tires Kumho or BFGoodrich
These tires last around 60000km on my Tacoma.
Overhyped, I manage a tire shop, get some bf Goodrich k02’s better quality, longer tread life, and more durable.
Im running BFGoodrich advantage control on my 2016. They are a sister company to Michelin, so you'll be getting the same good quality you normally get with them. When it comes to snow, I'm comfortably able to drive through 5-6 inches of snow and have had zero issues in the rain.
I second the kumhos v730. For the price they are pretty hard to beat. They don’t heat up as fast as ao52’s but the grip level is similar and they last longer
I have NC Miata and run Kumho V730s as a track and autocross tire. Might be like 0.5 sec off the fastest tire over a 60 sec course and holds up well on track.
I bought Kumho a/s for the first time this summer and I am very happy with them so far.
I have a set of Kumho A/T tires on my beater 4runner and tbh they’re not snow tires and they’ve still been fantastic in the snow. Don’t have the best ride quality, but I’ve thoroughly liked them for the last 35k miles.
+1 for the BFG Comp2 A/S Plus. I've had a couple sets of the DWS06 tires, but used them as "three season tires," as they are trash in any real snow. But for the other three seasons, they were good.
I had to replace all 4 Kuhomos at about 12k as I blew two out. Now sitting at 24k and they’re almost halfway worn on one set.
I worked in tire shops for many years and installed many sets of BFG all terrain K02. I used to cringe when I saw these tires on the work order. They are very heavy tires to handle and that weight doesn't help with mounting and balancing. Every time I installed a set of these, there would always be 1 or 2 tires that would ask for an obscene amount of weight when trying to balance. Sometimes as much as 10 ounces on a perfect rim. We would try to promatch them but sometimes they would still want 5-6 ounces. Sometimes we would peel the tire off and try another one from stock if we had more. If we had no other stock, we would slap the weight to it and hope the customer didn't come back with a vibration. Also, everyone I've ever talked to who had these said they turn hard as a rock when they are cold and are terrible on ice.
