Tires Nexen or OEM Subaru
Reviews
But my go to tire in this space is Nexen... Nexen N5000 Platinum should be under $600 out the door with mount, balance, and taxes, a solid 70k mile all-season tire.
Pros: solid all-season tire
I had a set of Nexen Aria A7's on my GMC Terrain, I got 52,000 miles out of them and they gripped just fine and were quiet. For the money they are a good tire. They are a Korean brand, not some fly-by-night Chinese garbage brand.
Pros: good tire, gripped fine
Mileage: 83686 km
All are legit, and I would also vouch for Nexen. I put a set of Aria AH7 on my '19 Fusion, and they are quite nice for the price.
Pros: nice for the price
Vehicle:
Ford Fusion
Part number: AH7
A car I bought had fairly new Nexen tires on it. They lasted 75,000 miles, were quiet, and had decent traction in the rain (Florida).
Pros: quiet, decent rain traction
Mileage: 120700 km
Nexen makes some really good tires... I have used the N5000 Platinum and Plus, and the Roadian HTX and they have been excellent...
Pros: really good tires, excellent
Bridgestone Turanza QuietTrack or Serenity, Yokohama Avid Touring-S or GT, Continental TrueContact Tour or PureContact LS, ... But looking at your current tire and the one you're looking at, it looks like you are more budget minded... consider the Nexen N5000 Platinum. I've had those and their predecessor (N5000 Plus) on a few vehicles and were more than impressed with the tire in general for what you pay for it, and noise was always very low.
Pros: low noise
I was Super curious about these tires because they look good and second was was the fact that the hybrid community was giving high praise to these tires. 1. They look great ???? 2. The efficiency is indeed high. I went from 3.7mi/kwh to a solid 4mi/kwh. I really like these tires now. The reviews were no joke. These tires have better "range" than the Michelin Energy Saver that they replaced. Some people look down on these "off-brand" tires as they want something more expensive and a name brand. These tires are just fine.
Pros: high efficiency, better range
Vehicle:
Nissan Leaf
I have cheap Chinese I think, Nexan tires on my GTI because thats what the dealer put on the car. The ride real smooth, very quite and after 2 years and 20k miles they just wont' wear out. Probably have another 20k miles left to them. The wet grip is awful though. Dry grip is good.
Pros: smooth ride, very quiet
Cons: awful wet grip
Vehicle:
Volkswagen
Mileage: 20000 km
I have nexen tires on my ram truck I have had two almost brand new tires bulge apart on that truck. They are in fact junk tires.
Pros: bulge apart
Cons: junk tires
If you are going for less than 40 thickness, dont buy cheap. For example, 235/20/35 nexen is bad, very bad. I had it and went for a check up and found out a bulge growing like a tumor on the inner side of the tire.
Cons: bulge growing like tumor
