LOVE Duratracs in New England. Fantastic all around tire, but know what you're getting into. By that I mean it's an aggressive tread, so it's going to make noise and it will have increased rolling resistance compared to a highway terrain.
I have the Duratrac tires on my work trucks, which are not tacomas. They do well in the mud and snow. They get really loud on the road though, in my opinion.
I just put these on my heavy TT. they were substantially beefier than the ST tires they replaced. My set were made in Germany. They're expensive, but as a victim of a blow out on 2 year old STs, I can tell you that the price difference would have been less than the cost of the collateral damage.
I got her **\*\*Goodyear Winter Commander Studded Tires\*\***. Now I still cringe and cry and ask to get off the ride. And there are finger print marks in the dash from my death grip. But that being said, even in the crazy conditions we have had, come ice or snow or other Winnipeg Drivers, she has yet to find a situation where the tires break loose under hard breaking.
I got new Michelin all seasons that are just as awesome.
After 23k miles I didn't want to keep the Falken OE tires on my car for another winter. Michelin has released the CrossClimate 2 tire in the Alltrack OE size (205/55R17 95V XL) and I decided to buy a set. I love them! These tires have given the car a great steering feel and are quiet on the road, and I think they look just right for the Alltrack.
I really like the Michelin x-ice tires, they are on the quieter side for winters I've had on the dry and great in the snow, but noise comes with that added traction anyway you do it.
I have the Pilot A/S 3+ on my A5. Love them. Had them on my Golf R too. I'm generally a diehard Michelin tire guy, but the improvement of the DWS06+ over the Pilot Sport AS4 might make me switch were I need tires today.
In my 20 years driving experience... I seem to recall using goodyear only once. It was ok, nothing special about noise or grip level. But I remember getting a lot more punctures on the goodyears than any other brand I've used. But again, it could just be bad luck.
General all day every day. Michelen tires dryrot like wet cheese
