Tires Nexen or Cooper
I had Cooper ATPs on my previous truck and was really happy with them. I sold the truck when the tires had like 40k on them and they probably had another 15-20k left in them. They were quiet and good in the rain.
I've got a set of discoverer at3 4s as my summer tires and discoverer snow claws for the winter. They're good tires for summer though, especially for the price I paid. Probably 80% as good as a Michelin or BF Goodrich at 60% of the price. The snow claws have been excellent.
We just replaced the stock Yokos with Cooper Discoverer Road+Trail ATs. Don't have a lot of miles on them yet but they're quiet so far and have performed well in the rain.
used to sell tires for years. starfire or mastercraft were good. they're a lower tier tire produced by cooper that still retain a decent warranty.
My own choice is Cooper, not the cheapest, but it definitely lasted longer than any of my Goodyear or Firestone tires I had in the past.
Nexen winguard sport 2 have been just fine for me.
I put Nexen Roadian AT Pro RA8 on instead (they were on sale and had white letter sidewalls, I am old school) and honestly I haven't regretted it at all... I do some off-roading and deal with pretty severe winters and snow and the Nexens have been very good in those conditions and I have put a fair amount of interstate highway miles on them and they run nice and quiet.
I will say they are a bit hard for an autocross tire (even at 200 tw), I would go Kuhmo instead.
Last Coopers I bought at Walmart. Rode so hard, no give to them.
I had Nexen tires put on for the first time a couple years ago and had 2 punctures within a week of each other last year and just today one completely blew out. They were cheap but I probably wouldn't buy them again.
