Tires Nexen or SUNNY
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
Eu am cauciucuri sunny, un set de vara și un set de iarna! Am fost multumit de cele de iarna si automat nu am mai cumparat de vara decat de la marca asta chinezească!Sunt mulțumit!
Pros: Preț rezonabil, sunt mulțumit
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
We have a set of Sunny tires on our 98 Cavalier 4dr auto. (Used as summer only). Also a dedicated set of Cooper winter tires. As a summer only tire they have been fine for the last ~60,000km+ and the only reason for buying them is they were cheap, the car is old and getting pretty high in mileage. Wasn't sure how long it would last to be honest. It has surprised me and I figure the next set I buy will be a brand name all season for the summer only to have the car inevitably crap out shortly after.
Pros: fine for summer, long lasting
Cons: cheap
Vehicle:
Chevrolet Cavalier
Mileage: 60000 km
Nexen is shit. Hyundai kia use them as their stock tires and they are absolute dogshit. Honestly 90% of their reputation for poor ride and handling. I popped one on a pothole. 3 mm sidewall thickness.
Cons: poor ride and handling
Vehicle:
Kia Optima
They will work good in the winter on ice and snow but they will suffer on dry conditions and the highway. I find that once you are driving over 50 mph (80km) they turn very unstable and very floaty. Also, they will be loud and cornering on dry pavement is pretty bad.
Pros: good on ice and snow
Cons: unstable, loud, bad cornering
Vehicle:
Volkswagen
