Tires MICHELIN or Goodyear
I have a pair of Defender 1 and 2s on my 2017. Both great. Defenders will impact your MPG. Around 2-3 in my experience.
We put the Michelin Cross climates on 2 years ago, still no problems and much better gas mileage.
Goodyear makes good tires which perform very competitively for the price range they are in. All season all weather lines like the Assurance WeatherReady 2, Assurance MaxLife, and Assurance ComfortDrive are top tier products with excellent performance.
So, I got some Michelin X-Ice Snow tires put on for Winter!
I have Michelin defenders on my RAV4. They're loud but go like hell in the snow
I only put Michelin defenders on my Highlander and 4runner and we use the 4runner to go to the Hunt land, gravel roads going into rutted dirt roads, forest service roads when going fishing, no issues at all.
After all my research I settled on Michelin X ICE Snow SUV. I went with 18" wheels and the ride is smooth, with a slight hum from the winter threads. Overall very quiet.
I’ve had the Michelin CC2’s for about 30k + miles and they still perform amazing in the Snow. Was up around Breck the opening weekend and had no problems.
I replaced mine with Goodyear Assurance Maxlife tires. I'd never paid attention to tire sounds before, but when I started reading that tires can be loud or quiet, I'm judging these to be loud. Good tires, though.
had these in my previous car, only good when new. after that they were very average
