Yes, good tyres are absolutely worth the money when you need them.
Try Maxxis AP3's, they're dirt cheap and nearly as good as the Michelin Cross climates. I've genuinely been impressed by that specific Maxxis tyre, on my 3rds set now.
Decent brand all-season tyres will last well and be safe and capable all year round (come snowy season you might get roped into giving lifts lol), and you’ll have peace of mind; and those to me are certainly valuable enough to spend £350 on.
I replaced all my mismatched tyres when I bought my 2012 Yaris three years ago, with a set of Michelin CrossClimate+. Worth the piece of mind.
Try some Michelin Pilot Sport tires
I have Defenders on my Highlander, Corolla and Rav. They are the only tire I will ever buy.
Have had Defenders on the 2013 Sienna, a heavier vehicle than the Highlander, and they lasted me 53k miles...could have gone longer, I thought I had a worn out tread causing noise that turned out to be a bearing.
I went Michelin from Costco and I have no complaints. They are not noisy and have been great in the snow we just had in Minnesota this last season
My OEM Michelin PS4’s were gone after about 14k miles of abuse (new car excitement).
Can confirm , the dunlops are absolute garbage in the snow. Bought a set of beater oem 16 wrx wheels off of marketplace today and will be slapping on some premium awd snow donut shoes tomorrow, almost hit a curb going five mph leaving a stoplight. They have as much traction in snow , as a puck has on a air hockey table.. prepare to buy tires if you live in a winter challenged climate .
