Tires NITTO or Goodyear
We also had Goodyear TrailRunnner AT's on my wife's Cherokee before we sold it. They were solid, and did well in inclement weather.
I put a set of GOODYEAR ASSURANCE WEATHERREADY’s on my wife’s 2017 SEL. So far, so good.
2020 Tiguan S - Goodyear Assurance . Quiet and smooth but 215/65R17.
I just swapped out the OEM Goodyear Assurances with Crossclimate 2's on my brand new '22. Did a 3500 mile road trip with them. They're a little more noisy than the Assurances but otherwise, feels pretty good.
If you hop on TireRack.com and don’t mind getting a Goodyear credit card on the spot, you can get a killer deal on the Goodyear Assurance Weatherready which I think would fit your needs well
Great choice! I did the same and we traveled 27k miles with them so far without issue!
Also the first "modification" I made to my new Rockwood. Goodbye Castle Rock (seriously?) tires and hello Goodyear. I took the wheels to the tire shop myself, the first thing I noticed was how much heavier they were with the new Endurance tires installed. That's gotta mean something as far as reliability, all I know is that the peace of mind was money well spent.
In my 20 years driving experience... I seem to recall using goodyear only once. It was ok, nothing special about noise or grip level. But I remember getting a lot more punctures on the goodyears than any other brand I've used. But again, it could just be bad luck.
Kevlar my ass, I've already had a puncture from a weenie nail, they have 0 grip on dry pavement and even less on wet, they are barely passable on dry offroad but absolute garbage in snow or ice. They are really the "worst of both worlds" when it comes to all-terrain tires. I got 6k miles on them before I gave up, just put on BFG trail/terrain tires and they are better in every way.
I have a set of these on my Jetta and they suck in the rain. Especially as I near the end of their life
