Tires MICHELIN or BFGoodrich
There are several good winter tires. Blizzacks, Nokian, Michelin, Continental are great. IMO I avoid studded winter tires.
I went with commander 3s got about 4K on them now and mostly 2 up riding with very minimal wear, plenty of grip for fun riding even with some rain
Defenders are a surprisingly competent off road tire.
Michelin CrossClimate. Best tires I’ve ever put on my tC when I had it.
Wheels from Tire Rack with Michelin Ice-X tires. Great setup - saved us the first year when we were caught in a terrible ice storm near St Louis, when nobody was moving and we drove around all the stalled traffic.
I have a mich cruiser 3 up front and cruiser 2 in the rear. I will never run another brand. Great in the wet.
Yes I just switched this weekend from the Pzero runflats to Michelin PS4S. So much better, way more comfortable over bumpy roads and better around corners too.
i love my Michelin Defender 2, they aren't the sportiest of tires, but darn are they great GT tires (decent economy) and have decent tread for dirt roads. Only down side is that tread does have the tendency to grab on to the smaller rocks that jettison off later down the road once you hit black top.
Great ride on my 19 ram. I find they wear prematurely(2 sets)
The BF Goodrich MT/TA 255/75 R17 are the original tires on my JEEP Wrangler Unlimited Rubicon Hard Rock which has only 24,000 easy miles on it. I have never been off road. At 24k miles they are badly worn and cupping and the noise has become unbearable.
