vs
Tires Nexen or Laufenn
Laufenn if you can afford it, these use the old patterns from Hankook and are essentially a sister company to them. I deal with tyres daily and would rate these above any of the other options you've been pushed towards.
Pros: above other options
Pretty much all of those tyres are decent, I use Laufenn Z and S series (which are made by Hankook) on the back of 2 of my high performance cars as I was getting sick of paying pilot sport or eagle money too regularly and they are honestly comparable.
Pros: comparable to pilot sport
Cons: paying pilot sport money
I've run laufenn on a newish golf and they're decent.
Quiet, decent lifespan well priced.
Tyre ship guy told me they're owned by Hankook, kind of a Lexus Toyota thing i.e not brand new tech/materials and maybe a previous tread pattern.
Been happy with them and will keep using them.
Pros: Quiet, decent lifespan
Cons: not brand new tech
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Golf
For budget friendly option, you can try Nexen Roadian AT Pro RA8. Korean made, quite durable been using it for 30k kms and no problem so far.
Pros: quite durable
Cons: no problem
Mileage: 30000 km
Nexen blue olcsóbbak közé tartozik de teljesen kulturalt tobb autonkon is van es birja
Pros: teljesen kulturalt, birja

Just got 4 installed last Friday. This morning on the way to work I started to hear what I’d describe as a winding sound. Only when going slow, like under 20mph. I’m wondering if it’s just a “new tire sound” but none of any other new tires have I ever heard it.
Cons: winding sound, only slow
BFG is definitely a class above the Nexen. Sure Nexen has never issued a recall but they make very mid car tires imo, underrated truck tires tho and excellent quality control.
Pros: excellent quality control
Cons: very mid car tires
I have them on my sti. Theyre good on concrete and okay in rain. However absolutely trash on snow/ice. No grip around corners resulting in sliding not to mention having to be gentle and brake early.
Pros: good on concrete, okay in rain
Cons: trash on snow/ice, no grip
Vehicle:
Subaru
My '23 Versa came with Npriz S and it's labeled as "bad" by the dealership at 23k miles and now at 30k they aren't looking good at all to me. One just started a slow leak.
Pros: slow leak
Cons: labeled as bad
Vehicle:
Nissan
Mileage: 48280 km
