The best tire I have found is Nitto Grappler A/T. The set I’m on now has 77,000+ miles on them and I’m expecting to reach between 80 to 85.
Never used Laufenn. But I had good luck with a set Saiilun.
I will resurrect this just because my car came with Sailun Atrezzo 480. I bought a 3rd gen Prius 4 years ago with 76K and it now has 142K. The tires have been fine & just getting to the wear bars. I was going to replace them at first but kind of tested them for traction in dry and rain and they seemed to grip good. I was just tire shopping and was going to get Michelins but decided on another set of Sailuns since I have been happy with them and it was $680.00 compared to $250.00. I would not have considered them if they did not come on the car but now that they have proven themselves I am getting another set. Yes you get what you pay for but these have been as good as anything else for a daily driver.
Nitto (Toyo sister company) makes the Recon Grappler in some large SL rated sizes and they remain light at 40-50#s.
Handling wise they were excellent, although, i havent tried a more premium tire on those rims yet, but in terms of the continentals i had as summer tires on a 15" rim before i upgraded they are WAY BETTER around corners, but that comes from there being alot less sidewall than the 15" with the continentals, i can take way steeper turns faster then what i could with the smaller rim.
Recently got a set of Sailun AT light truck 275/70r18’s…definitely budget tires & definitely quality tires ie good bang-for-buck
Super happy with them. Much quieter than expected and super grippy. Significantly lighter than the Falkans.
I have Nittos. They look cool, did great in the snow last year. Downright terrifying cornering in the rain.
Not happy, 25,000 km and two are separated, would definitely not recommend
They lasted about 30000 on my Camry. I had a problem with one of them that I had my local Firestone mount and “balance”. One day I noticed a loss of 3-4psi and subsequently saw a screw in the tire. Had been experiencing a lot of road noise sounded like a helicopter at cruising speeds.
