Tires Laufenn or GENERAL TIRE
General makes good tires.
I run a similar Laufenn on my 1 tonne work truck as my winter set up and they have been excellent. I actually have Laufenn on my sport truck, wifes mini cooper s and my work truck. All have been great. Good traction and well wearing.
I would recommend the General g max AS 05 or newer AS 07. They're pretty affordable and are great all seasons. On Tirerack you can see the ratings and can get them pretty cheap there as well. I've had those on my old ES 350 and recently on my 2022 Camry SE after the oem tires became unbearably loud and wore out at 40k miles.
I used General Tire Altimax 12 studded tires on my 2017 VW Golf Sportwagen for the 4 winters that I lived in central Maine and absolutely loved them. Great winter tire especially for the price.
I like the Altimax on my Passat.
I am on my second set of General Grabbers, and may go for another set. aggressive tread, quiet on the road, and last forever.
I have the LT Lauffens on my Truck. Drive gravel daily. Same set now for 3+ years. Had passenger tires before and was getting constant flats. I have had zero flats since getting these. Could not recommend this brand enough.
The rugged-looking alloy wheels of the prototype, shod in General Grabber A/T Sport tires (275/60R18), sound like a fitting choice for the production model.
Currently running the General 365aw, and they've been pretty good. I don't think they were as good as the nokians in the snow. (Mind you, we don't get a lot of snow here, it's mostly very wet snow when we do).
With that said the General Grabbers were my least favorite set of tires in terms of their noise and grip while cornering.
