Now I have Kumho Road Venture AT52 275/70/17 E-load. They are aggressive and are heavy but I do not rub on normal highway driving or light off road use. Good tires.
I've been pretty happy with the cost/benefit of Firestone Indyhawk/Indy500/whatever they're calling them these days, on the stock wheels. They don't last long (I get 10-15k miles out of a set) but they're damn cheap ($650-$750), and break traction quite easily and predictably, if you enjoy going a little sideways often. I usually am running the Flying Miata alignment specs with these tires break loose fantastically easily and enjoyable for me on that alignment. On a factory alignment though they are reasonably grippy for spirited street driving. Again though the biggest benefit of them is they are super widely available (because Firestone) and CHEAP.
Very happy with Firestone Destination XT. As quiet as all seasons, great snow traction more than decent offroad
I really like the Kumho Road Venture AT51. It's quiet on the road but still aggressive enough for rough terrain. It's also three peaks winter rated so it is an excellent tire in the snow and ice. Tread life has been good also
Been really happy with the Kumho Ecsta PA51, as they are a bit more frisky than my previous set of tires which were Conti DWS 06+… although I generally find all seasons to be disappointing.
Am montat Kumho si sunt multumit.
Airing up tires would be about the only thing I'd trust Firestone with and it would have to be free to even trust them that much.
Kumho Solus's. Bought them as an all weather tire for a backup vehicle. Reviews seemed mixed but decent overall and the price is hard to beat. They wore faster than winter tires, and didn't have near the same performance. Even with rotations, the tread was gone within 25000 km.
Very unhappy with these OE Kumho Solus TA31"s.
Worst tires I have ever purchased. Snow traction was very good for an all season, but these should be marketed as a snow tire. The first set wore out in 13500 miles (in part due to a slight misalignment), and the second set are near garbage after 23000 miles. Most frustrating, is that they have cracked in between the tread. Firestone offered a measly discount as a warranty claim for the first set, I think $15 per tire. Spend the extra money and get a better set of all seasons.
