Tires NITTO or Nokia
I like my Nitto Neo Gens. Good tire, makes a lot of noise when they’re on the verge of traction, look good too.
i know this thread is old now, but i had the nitro terra grappler g2. i think they’re on the g3s now, but they honestly weren’t any louder than stock. not the most aggressive looking a/t, but i didn’t mind it because they were so quiet
I have them in 35x12.5R18 on my 2500. Have about 26k on them and they look about 1/2 to 2/3rds worn. I live in socal so not a ton of rainy days but the days we have had rain, they've been better than the stock Firestones.
My wife wanted a tire that was more comfortable, quieter, and had better treadwear than the OEM summer tires. So far, we're really happy with these tires.
Even though there's no acoustic foam like on our OEM tires, they're quieter. They're practically silent up to 50mph but there's a slight hum at freeway speeds. They're not as loud as the OEM Continentals.
They're also much more comfortable than the OEM summer tires. With the Ohlins suspension and OEM Continentals, the Polestar 2 was surprisingly jarring over small bumps on the road. One thing that I noticed was that the Nokian sidewalls seem to be pretty soft/flexible.
Tread life should be solid. Handling/Performance feels like 85% of the OEM tires.
All in all, these aren't track tires. Nor are they the sportiest tires in the UHP All-Season class. But they're a super practical choice for a wide range of coupes and sedans - they should wear well, they're comfortable, and provide enough grip to have fun.
I had a set on my 18 ram 1500. They were difficult to keep balanced at first, buy finally found a shop that could do it. I rotated them every 10k miles and got 55k miles out them. No issues in rain and live in Florida.
Living in the PNW, I was hesitant to buy them due to the wet performance reviews. I've had them for about a year now, and I've had zero issues with them in the rain. They've been a great tire
I have the 35's on my truck. Been a few years and never had an issue with them. I'm in FL so no snow to deal with but lots of rain.
I'm proud I bought Nokian winter tires few years ago. They weren't that expensive, about €75 each considering Continental were something like €120 each.
Nitto Motivos. They came with the car so I can't compare. I'm sure they're nowhere as good, but seem like a good value based on the price. They skip just a bit on a hard launch even when warmed up. Good in the summer. I live in S-FL, so no experience with winter roads. I did some racing on a cool night and broke loose coming out of first. Pretty good on wet roads for the most part as long as you don't do any racing.
Mine look even worse than this and same thing. Rotated when needed and also live in NJ. No doubt the worst tires I’ve ever had on my truck. Absolutely suck in wet conditions and as they wear they get insanely loud
