Tires MICHELIN or VITOUR
I have X-ice 3 on my Tucson and they are great. My brother also has them on his Tucson, he does daily highway drives and he loves them.
I purchase michelin tires because they are used on airplanes, the space shuttle, and formula one cars (formerly).
And of course better tires - upgraded to Michelin Premiers for best suite of AS characteristics.
I bought Michelin PSS due to everyone online telling me to and HOLY SHIT. Best tires ever
If you don't need deep snow traction, go with Michelin Pilot Alpin PA4. I run them on my sports cars. Excellent cold weather and rain traction. Quiet. Good in light snow and slush.
Xice3 for me. Giant difference.
+1 to the Nokian's if you just need one tire. Personally, keep the stock tire and get some snows for winter use. Been using the Michelin X-Ice3's and they are fantastic and a hell a lot cheaper than the comparible Hakka R series.
I chose these tires because I put them on my 2016 Tucson last year and they are phenomenal.
The AS remind me of all of my Pilot experiences in the wet. But I am cautious when probing limits on public roads; I have yet to experience these in the wet on roads that I know well. I really want to feel how these break loose - sudden or gradual - after loosing traction on wet roads. But they do continue to impress me, far beyond the Pirellis.
They're not great but they are somewhat better than the Michelin MXV4 Plus tires that came with my Passat. I had HX MXM4's on 17\" Long Beaches from my 1.8T Jetta that I have been using on my TDI. Now that they've worn out, I've just replaced them with Bridgestone Potenza RE050A Pole Positions. These should give me the kind of cornering and wet weather grip the Michelins lacked.
